I don't sense sarcasm well on message boards.

Flyers are going to sign Bobrovsky to a big UFA deal and trade Hart. Bobrovsky will falter and Hart will win the Vezina and become a star for another team. I don't know if I'll die from laughter or from crying.

Not me. I don't love every decision he made, and it's fair to question some of them, but at the same time, I simply do not blame him for how the roster looks

He got a 100-point season out of a 30-year-old player by easing him to the wing. He might not be Scotty Bowman, but he's not an idiot

The Flyers are close to being the worst first period team in the league under Hakstol.

If you cant get your team ready to play at the start of games, you are a bad coach.

No the issue wasn't nearly as bad under Berube.

I guess he wouldn't listen to anyone? If Homer was trying to give me advice I think I would ignore him as well!
- FlyerLifer


, yeah...kind of wish Comcast gave Homer the boot too. Comcast employee John Boruk, sure seems to be going out of his way to paint a picture of Hextall as a tyrant and control freak

and he'll be handing out no-trade clauses and 8 year contracts to everyone. I'm heading to Voorhees now to see if I can get one.

Some of that's on the players, man. I'm not saying the coach is blameless, but they have been like this for a decade now. The last time they actually got after people in the first was under Hitch

I'd have moved some guys. I would've. Because they have been doing this poop for years -- it was a problem all the way back to Stevens

Totally different players and coaches, same problem. And I admit it's bad. It's ridiculous how they start games

To be fair I was calling for Giroux to be moved to LW the season before. Doesn't mean they should hire my ass.

I would venture to say they bucked that trend under Lavi -- but having Pronger on the roster certainly helps.
