I can get people misspelling Gostisbehere and Zolneirczyk (I'm sure I (frank)ed that up), but Lindbum? Come on.

Yea, I agree.

That's why we have nice nicknames like ghost and harry z

Giroux, Voracek, Simmonds, Konecny, Provorov, Gostisbehere, Couturier. We have pieces.

Nobody knew where Vegas would be where they are. No expansion team in history as done with they've done but it still possible to turn a team around in less than five years.

You mean Girbum, Vorabum, Simbum, Konecbum, Provobum, Gostibum, and Couturibum?

GODDAMNIT.

In all seriousness, they're not talking much about it other than they haven't ruled tomorrow night out but Hak said he knows who's starting and wouldn't say who and Elliott hasn't been fully cleared yet.

vegas also had different rules for their expansion draft. seattle will demand the same.

He's likes to keep us guessing. It's very mysterious and sexy.

The Flyers obviously are one of the worst PK teams in the league but at 5 on 5, the Flyers have been one of the better 5 on 5 defensive teams in the league this year. They have regressed some over the last month and need to clean it up a little. As well as situationally get better such as late in games.

Well this is even more an interesting point. The fandom delusion believes Elliot will step in and save us all. So my question is, how well did we play team defense in front of him? My second question is, who was starting during our ten game winless streak earlier this season?

I await the next South Park reference to make your Nonexisting point?

the caps never won a cup with mcphee and now their current gm. does that make them both failures? get out of here with your nonsense

the situations in vegas and here are not equivalent. Vegas does not have the pieces to be a contender. they are playing above their means. our team was a fat mess when hexy took over. we are competing now and have a top 3 prospect pool in the league. god you're even worse to argue with thsn MJL because at least he has the right idea often enough.yoy just sit there and complain and offer no solutions and criticize every move.

i don't think that's what the fandom believes. that said, he's the best and most reliable, experienced goalie they have. on paper he gives them the best chance. that said, he hasn't played in nearly 2 months. i am on the fence about lyon being a better option than mrazek.

Brian Elliott says they’ve been doing their best to replicate game situations in practice for him so he can get a good idea of how ready he is to return. Also said they haven’t ruled out tomorrow vs. Carolina. @davegisaac

Either he’s taking sarcastic posts too seriously or he’s exaggerating. Of course fans think the team will perform better with their best goalie back in net. I doubt anyone thinks Elliott is going to carry this team to the promise land, especially coming in after a surgery.

I’d be happy just to see Elliott return and the team at least play well and be competitive in round one. With the existing holes on this roster, you cannot expect any more than that.
