Him being "horrible" has very little to do with the players the GM provided him.

Bingo. He also seems to be doing fine in Seattle. The teams he had here weren’t good. I didn’t mind the approach in the hire, something different than the recycling

After the 3rd odd man rush that resulted in a goal, I shut it off. The team really isn't watchable right now. I feel sorry for those who have season tickets.

This franchise needs someone to play taps over it's grave surrounded by faithful mourners

It doesn't take much energy. You can start with telling me what Hakstol's system was that you posted was part of the issue.

Not forechecking and stretch passes. Now it’s your turn to post why YOU THINK I’m wrong and try to make it sound like fact. But it’s just you hiding your ignorance by attacking others. Tiring.

Why? They knew what they were signing up for, "a fool and his money are soon parted."

When did they go to the single Flyers logo at center ice? Was that pre or post covid?

Not forechecking and stretch passes is not a description of a hockey system. I already posted why I think you're wrong. Speaking of ignorance, you're invoking systems talk without obviously knowing anything about it.

JOB

4 misses is a huge reason why this team is in the state they are in currently. To have pretty much next to nothing to show for 4-1st rd picks is a disgrace.

Any idea what the attendance as last night?

For the 2019 season.
I prefer the double logo look.

I went to the Giroux game and I realized how much I do not like the single logo look.

Frost has shown plenty of signs of breaking out and has the potential to center a solid scoring line in the NHL.
- MJL

When?
A few nice shifts or passes?
Put your RR glasses on to evaluate this kid.
He is combo Jordan Weal and that Martel kid.

You can respond to someone else.

Another player who will win a Stanley Cup with another team like Justin Williams? Just to mention one.

This is correct, even Craig Button said this last year. Frost is just not consistent and his skillset is not translating to the NHL. All this nonsense about moving his feet and playing off the puck is just that, nonsense! No one would be saying anything about this if Frost was putting up points and making plays every night. However I hope Torts keeps this line together so we can once and for all put this topic to bed!
- jd250

Agree.
The narrative of him playing with more skilled guys experiment has shown a big
whole lotta nothing.
His is a top line Ahler end of story.
Time to move on.

This is the type of ADD-afflicted nonsense Flyers fans are known for. Losing patience with a kid that has played a very small number of games with skilled linemates.

Too predictable.

Isn't it though? Well I've seen 3 games with Frost playing with Tippet and Farabee. That's enough for me. Some know after 94 NHL games, most of it playing with poor linemates that he's never going to be a good player.

Amen to that. I have had my fill of this dumpster fire. I'd love to see him canned by XMAS but highly doubt that.
- Hextall271

Honestly, I'm ready for scorched earth with this organization. Fire everyone and start over.

You thought Andy Mac was a legit top pairing dman. So there is that. Who gave him that bad contract?

When do the excuses for Frost stop? When do you say it isn't going to happen on the Flyers for him as a player?

I think it was after the German Shepherd K-9 took a dump on it.

Same people who were whining that Tippet sucks after a few games last year. No patience...yet they will be on here asking the Flyers to go get some other reclamation who has the exact same development challenges and not see the irony

I don't believe it is going to happen here. It may or may not happen anywhere else, but definitely not here when he isn't consistently put in a position to succeed. When they do put him with proper linemates it doesn't last long. He also needs to find a way to produce something.

I have seen all I need to tell you he is a top line Ahler in his years here.
I watched him closely when he was first up.
Some sweet passes to G along the goalmouth had me excited for this kid.
After those few plays I have waited and waited and waited and waited to see it.
Wanted to see him just excel even with bad linemates.

Listened to excuse after excuse he missed a year, covid and never been with players to succeed blah blah blah.

If he does it in NHL i will be first to say oops.
When he is a career A guy what say you?

No question. Tippet was part of the crap return that Fletcher got from Florida when he was fleeced in the trade. Looks like he has the potential to be a good player to me.
