85% of it is shtick. The fact people take it so serious is amazing.

This is true. This team went backwards just about every year since 2010 with a big payroll. Criticism has been warranted. Like i said in my reply to NFG tho, they took a atep forward and the emergence of some younger players has changed my outlook. Snider passing also took a lot of the wind out of my sails with the criticism.

I think it's hilarious. Mason let's another hit the post. I say if he lets in another, gotta switch.

I mean I'm annoyed I haven't seen this team win a Cup. The only time following this team that I was really pissed off is the Stevens hit on Lindros. I believe that was a year they would have won the Cup. The 4 trips I've seen them make to the Finals they got beat by a better team. Bad luck with the timing of when they've been good, and extremely bad luck with injures.

That would be epic. Saw something new last night in the wjc game last night. Can vs USA. Too many men on both teams at the same time.

Did they play 4 on 4? Haha

The team took a step forward this year therefore i've relented on my negative outlook. Have to give credit where it's due. Provorov and konecny have been a real treat.
- JoeRussomanno



Im am freakin giddy over Provorov.

the season they lost to tampa in the conference finals is the one that kills me. I truly believe had they been healthy on the backend they win the cup

We could be the worst team in the league right now and because of him i'd be slightly less than ok to be this gokd this young is such blessing.

A good part of not winning a Cup is just staying out of your own way. Mismanagement has been an issue. As is a lack of patience. One example giving up on Bobrovsky who is likely going to win his second Vezina this year is just something that can't happen.

It's weird to say that the Flyers are loaded on defensive prospects.
Solid in goaltending prospects
Weakest in the forward position.

It's crazy world.

They had it in 2010 if Leighton could have kept it together for another round.

Yes. They could've have beaten Calgary for sure. Mattias Timander.

That bad goal by Leighton was awful, but imo they had very little chance to win game 7 in Chicago.
