Sure they can. See: Sabres, Buffalo

at least they're supposed to suck and have good young players

It's a friggin green wall down low...

PUT OUT ROSEHILL! Hat trick.

I guess it could be worse. They could be boring, bad, miss the playoffs and have the 12th pick in the draft.

it's sad some people WOULD be happy just missing the playoffs and getting a crap pick like that

On the bright side the flyers didn't let in a eng with over three minutes with an open net.

It's baffling. Read at the end of that PP chose to pass - a bad pass at that - instead of throwing it at the net. Same with Streit. It's like they need things to be perfect, and that ain't gonna happen.

Yeah seriously, they need to just throw it on net. I don't understand. Its basic fundamentals on the PP. Not only that but their offense is too inept. Too many times they shot wide on golden opportunities. They need a shake up to produce scoring. A true sniper. I wouldn't be against trading Voracek and maybe a prospect/pick for a sniper. Then maybe replace Streit?

sure would be nice to have the offense to go along with the goal tending.

on the bad side the flyers couldn't (frank)ing score on a 3 minute power play

Keeping track of the two goal or less games is becoming tedious.

I'm going to focus on the 1 goal or less games. Which is now at 11.

This team sucks. At least with the worst season in 06-07 there was some kind of hope, and occasionally you got to watch Forsberg. This team is just bland, crappy hockey. If their goalies don't steal games, they don't have much of a chance.

I actually don't think it was as world-endingly bad as some people think. They played a good defensive team with a Vezina caliber goalie and just got beat on a few dirty goals. Not great but not as awful as 90% of you are making it.

Give them 10 minutes, and they still wouldn't score.

kind of wish they didn't at this point it gives us false hope

thank god Mason stole 2 points last game, or this road trip would be off to a bad, bad start.

1 goal is a miracle with this team against any team.

After all the terrible goalies we've seen, how could you say that?

Streits here for at least 2 more years. And if Voracek sucks so bad, why would anyone trade a "true sniper" for him?

An impressive level of offensive ineptitude...

if we had mason instead of leighton .... yea
