Haha how am I tough? I'm asking you to shut up because obviously no one on here likes your views, and all you're doing is pissing people off.

Whoops, just caught this gem on the way out.

Telling someone to shut the (frank) up where I'm from is fighting words. I don't care if you or anyone of you like me because I don't like you right back. You guys are a lot harder on me, than I am you. With a post like this one, you've proven that you are a child. Only a child could type something like this and believe in it, right after posting a picture of a cartoon to make his point.

I gave you an honest objective opinion about a team that I love and you guys don't like it because more than half of you aren't man enough face it.

Sorry but I'm not sorry I hurt your feels. Now I'll kindly exit because oh no, none of you like me. 😭 😭 😭

What a joke!

correct. in order to eliminate florida's results.

florida still has a tough road, needing to win all 3, playing boston twice, and needing the flyers to lose at least once in regulation.

flyers have the advantage. at home. against 2 non playoff teams, with their own playoffs on the line. it will be nothing less than abject failure and collapse considering they were 13 points clear of the last non playoff team at the deadline.

- hammarby31


Panthers will win out. I have no doubt. Absolutely it would be an all-time collapse.

I said I don't think the Flyers could survive a first round and have a list as to why...

So how did I not make my point? Every part of my reasons were on display last night

*lack of timely saves by our goaltending
*even worse defense
*Bottom of the league PK
*The inability in clear pucks out of the defensive zone.
*Bad coaching decisions

Argue it! Seriously, tell me how unrealistic I am. Try to do it without bringing up Brayden Schenn who leads his team in points and isn't playing with a possible Hart trophy candidate.

God you Philadelphia people are so strange.

- SuperSchennBros



If the Flyers make the playoffs...your probably right as to the reasons why it may not be a long run....I do think if Elliot can get back, the Flyers can at least get solid goaltending....the others are reasons that have hurt Flyers this year. As far as bad coaching decisions, it’s a clean slate in the playoffs, I’m sure like any other coach they can learn by their previous mistakes....
The bad pk and failed clears is really the same problem....when their d is forced to play in their own end the flaws show. They struggle in their own end on a few levels.

Well guys, I'm out!

I guess today is the one day where facts don't matter

- SuperSchennBros


yes, those facts happened last night but it would not be accurate to say that is the case every game. No one here is saying this team is going to win the cup and most agree it would take a good matchup to even have a chance. Guess what, I will tune in and cheer for them and hope they play like they have in many of the 40 wins and cheer until the season is over.

what i love is the people who complained about the old way not working and now with hextall wanting to build thru the draft which IMHO is the best way to go in a cap world, we get constant complaining about how long its taking.

So basically they can't lose in regulation. Playing two awful teams at home to close out the season you figure they would find a way. They will need the 3 points. They aren't getting any help.
- PLindbergh31


I would be shocked if Florida wins all 3 games (2 against Boston) but quite frankly I want to see the Flyers win both and go into the playoffs on a high and not back in.

Yup. Want to see a win on the ice secure the playoff spot. I would think that is more gratifying to the players as well.

I think the Bruins are on cruise control, they looked disinterested in TB last night. I thought the Panthers would lose last night facing Nashville as the second game of a back to back. Now that they won that game, I see them winning out.

well it took till after 4 to settle down in here....

HMM-

what about this???

Across the last four games, Hakstol has opted to put his third or fourth line on the ice following a Flyers goal for eight of their 11 tallies.

please turn the pot back on.
