Right now that may be more entertaining to watch (again), even with the Fake Jan.

I am trying really hard but it is truly awful and not in an enjoyable way.

Like the Flyers!

Fake Jan was hot, though!

Anyone see that new commercial that the Flyers are using to sell tickets? The guy will only use a certain urinal(although they actually call it a stall in the commercial) due to his superstitions. Then later in the commercial he is taking a hoser and the Flyers apparently score, and he says "happens every time"! Even their marketing department sucks!!!

SanFilippo went-off about it the other day over at CB:

Can't say I disagree with him regarding this particular issue, and am glad I live out-of market so I'm spared having to see those ads.

I saw some of that HGTV miniseries that the "kids" all did where the real house that was used for all the exterior establishing shots was rebuilt so that its interior matched the TV-studio interiors. Gotta say both the "Real" Jan and Marcia still looked pretty good in that show, but Cindy...

(and that's all I'm going to say about that, before this goes too far off-topic)

Ha ha, glad I'm not the only one that noticed how dumb of a commercial that it is. Just another indication of how far this organization has fallen. They can't even get the fact that it's a urinal and not a stall right. Really like to meet the smacked arse that thought it was a good idea to air that gem. The ad is for the Carolina game on Friday, so at least it won't be around long.

This would be a good year to blow this roster up. The next two drafts are looking pretty deep.

definitely trade giroux this TDL don't lose out on value with him
Might even trade Risto if we can get a 1st and a solid prospect

Giroux has zero value unless you’re talking about a third round pick. No playoff team is giving up anything for an undersized soft aging forward who plays no defense only has scored 2 playoff goals & is a minus 11 over his last 28 playoff games.

Risto has tons of value but they should resign him

Yes, a full blown rebuild starting at the trade deadline. I'm talking about getting rid of Giroux (I believe he has good trade value), Risto, Sanheim, Konecny, Jones and JVR.

Idk what makes you think G does. No one is touching JVR & his contract.

Definitely let G go for whatever you can get but If they want to make a big move they should move Provy. He isn’t a top pairing defenseman but a playoff team probably would give up a lot for him

I think the only value G has is as a center and I’ve heard he wants to play wing at this point. The Flyers need speed and toughness up front and probably another top 4 D man. Konecny should be able to bring some value.

JVR will need cap retained to move him, which is fine if you're in a total rebuild. Many teams will be wanting Giroux at the TDL. He's a good player. Also unload Braun while we're at it.

For all the ones
Who fill my head with doubt

For all the squares who get me pissed

I said when they were hired that Fletcher is the poster boy for nepotism and mediocrity and that AV was an overrated hack who made his bones on the back of great goaltending.

Believe me yet?

It might be a job for Torts to end the free ride some of these players are getting.

I was never pro or con AV, but its time for him to go. We used the covid as an excuse and that bought him some time.....what's the excuse now?

This organization has become the hockey version of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj0kabVJj_4

I think for home games when the Flyers take to the ice, they should play that opening sequence.

I’m glad I haven’t seen this. At the end, did it say another gong show directed by Dave Scott?

Not that he is Pronger, but he is our best dman right now. I agree not saying much, but can we officially agree the hextall rebuild was a joke. Dmen overrated. No center depth. 1st round picks a mess. Even the decent picks just can’t stay healthy.

Off topic, but can someone explain to me why g is not at center?

Bring Frost up that’s fine, but why is g not in the middle of the ice right now?

We are getting murdered in the transition.

- Joe Nardone


No he is not. Not even close. Giroux plays center for a lot of the game.

Every single playoff team will pay a good price to acquire Giroux if they can if he is made available at the trade deadline. The only question is the cap. Giroux is a player that while he no longer can carry a team, he will elevate any team he goes to. He is still a really good player.

I fully agree. And I think he would be crazy to not waive his NTC.
