That was his best game this year, I wonder what kind of contract he gets next year. I don't think his overall game this year progressed as much as everyone hoped. Though, that can be said for most on this team

I wouldn't do anything but a 1 year prove it deal for Sanheim. Only 12 points and a -16 this year, he needs to be better than this if he wants a longer contract.

Would he still be an RFA after that? You keep coming with more and more ridiculous stuff

I personally believe all the things that made this team once great, the organization decided to throw to the waste side.

John LeClair, Simon Gagne, Jeff Carter. What happened to the snipers? Eric Lindros, Chris Pronger. What happened to the size?

What was once working for us, we just dismissed and threw away. Maybe it wasn’t working but whatever this is, is working even less.

The Flyers actually have some size, but it is what I call soft size. Look at Voracek, JVR and Hayes. All three are big dudes, but they are soft players. Every once in awhile JVR will actually finish a check, but Voracek usually does drive bys and I've NEVER seen Hayes finish a check. As others have said, I hope he is playing with an injury cause if not it's going to be a long 5 years with that slug on this team.

There is NO WAY this happens. (but I think you know that)

Do better.

I agree with this sentiment. Even Patrick Sharp in between periods of a recent game on NBC said “in today’s NHL,” you need size, grit, and toughness to go along with your snipers.

Who do we even have that is tough on pucks besides Laughton. This team consists of a bunch of perimeter players with no balls .

I don’t see Sanheim signing a one year deal. He can get 2 in arbitration and then be UFA at its conclusion. Flyers will want at least 3 years so they have him contracted for some of his potential UFA seasons.

NAK maybe, but he takes too many dumb penalties to stay in the lineup. Allison could be that way. He's looked pretty good so far.

He has been a detriment to the team , can’t be taking all those penalties in his limited minutes

Yup. Been that way all season it seems.

Of the players we have seen Allison play with 5 on 5 so far in his tiny 3 game sample, my favorite on a line was Lindblom. I would love to see them together maybe with Laughton or Giroux at center. I think Patrick looked good that game before the accidental head block occurred.

There is a chance to look at chemistry of forwards that are part of the plan going forward in these last games. Allison could be one of those guys.

Can't even be mad last night. Sorokin is a stud. The fact they actually came out with some pep and generated offense on the second game of a back to back was enough for me. They didn't do a whole lot of dumb sh!t on defense. Elliot looked good. I'll live with a point.

There’s gotta be someone else they can play. This has always been an issue with NAK. He is what he is. A liability for penalties on a team with a craptastic PK. Recipe for disaster.

Have to think Hayes will work his tail off this off-season and come back to prove himself. Throw Patrick and Lindblom on the 4th line, let them earn better than that, hope they raise their value.
I can honestly see next season lining up to be a good bounce back for most players. I think if you can ship out JVR, replace with speed and some skill. If Allison is as advertised and they find the D they need, with a Hart Bounce back, in a non Covid season the Flyers will do really well. Throw Patrick and Lindblom on the 4th line, let them earn better than that, hope they raise their value. Make not trades until you know you are getting full value. Sorry but I would keep Jake one more season.

Make the D trade in the off-season, heading into next years deadline add the parts you need to go deep in the PO's.

What a waste for G, he has given this team his all, just never has had the right mix to give him the shot, save 2010. You could still make the case that if you shut G down you shut the Flyers down. yeah, yeah, G is the captain and its his fault, this poop show is not one player nor could you expect G to lift this group to play better. The Mix is the issue and that is on Fletcher and to a lesser extent AV.

The results of the games are meaningless at this point. Elliott playing well means nothing as he won't be here next year. Dissecting how the team plays as a unit is really is inconsequential. There will be a ton of changes over the summer.

The Flyers started a 56 game schedule 7-2-1, they were so bad in the month of March they made the final 20 games irrelevant. That is pretty hard to do.

Outside of Couturier, Laughton, Provorov, and Hart there isn't anyone else on the roster who is guaranteed to be here next year. So outside of watching them, and maybe Farabee, and Allison that is all that is left this year.

He has 3 cups.
- SuperSchennBros

So 1 girl 3 cups? Sounds right for sid

In my mind the management level is mostly to blame for the product we are seeing on the ice. I mean waiving Gostisbehere and without him there is nobody that can outplay him on the pp. Provorov maybe but he makes a lot of bad decisions and mishandles the puck too much. When we need a goal Gost is always out there because he is the best option. Hayes has made me want to vomit regularly, he started well but has been trash for a couple months now. AV is not the answer as his head games with Konecny in particular clearly divides the group. AV watches this crap daily and seems to do nothing about it ??

Really? So what would you do hotshot? Would you sign him for another 3 years? I think it would be very dumb to do so.

I would not sign him for 3 years ... unless I do so at his current rate. He does not deserve a raise IMO.
