Bill Meltzer: Wrap: Flyers Overcome Caps, 5-3; Phantoms Lose to Syracuse

Thanks Bill for the quick recap! The Caps are tough but I enjoyed the game. I'm enjoying seeing Frosty and Tipper keep improving. The tank "fans" should start following the Hawks or another team as Philly will never tank.

Thanks, Bill. Any thoughts on the defense pairings?

Give me Larkin, and let's get this rolling.

Flyers about to put the league on notice. Rebuilds are for losers.

The Hawks will win another Cup before the Flyers.

Who will win a Stanley Cup first, the Flyers or Bedard?

I think the day they hired Torts is the same day that tanking or rebuilding was over. I’ve been watching the games and I like what I see as some younger players are improving. I think learning how to be a good pro in the NHL is difficult. Is Torts the right guy for that, I don’t know. What I can’t wrap my head around is the moves Fletcher has made.

Check the local emergency rooms. Probably filled with alumni having boners lasting more than four hours.

Promises made, promises kept. Stability achieved by Fletcher and company. Right back in it.

Angus, I don’t think there ever was an intentional “tank”. The rebuild ended when they hired Chuck.

Devils 😈

Only 6 points out of the Wild Card with a game in hand. I am absolutely terrified at what this front office may do as the season goes along.

Point fingers at management all you want as they are responsible for the lack of talent in some places on this roster. But if you aren't enjoying watching this team play then I don't know what to tell you.

They've certainly improved and are on a nice run and are easier to watch. They weren't good last night though but I kind of expected that.

If they keep it going like this, we ALL should be terrified.

Some folks on here just insist on being miserable. The Flyers win and they complain about them ruining their draft position and when the Flyers lose they complain about how bad they are. WTF! Bedard with 39 points (67 shots) in his last 10 games in the WHL. Me thinks that kid is gonna be a player.

This, as a fan I am enjoying the season. Yea, I want to win the lottery but not a tank.

Since last season I said this is the season we will see what we have with the picks of Hextall and with CF somewhat to a lesser extent, solid results, not high end results but solid.

The number of 1st round picks in the lineup or team is most of the team.

CF, full marks on Tippett, 3rd and 1st for G

It's just terrible that some folks want to win a Stanley Cup. I was 9 years old the last time they won. I know I'm a miserable person because as a life long Flyers fan. I'd like to see them win the Cup once in my adult life. Shame on me.

McDavid? Matthews? Pick your star or “generational” player. McKinnon was the only #1 overall of the past 12 years to win a cup.
