When you get around 15 there’s room for debate. That’s my opinion.Try this. Can you name 15 teams that don’t have a better center than Nico ?

If your just looking at a team for this year yes. If for future as well prob not, but that would rule out anyone over 27 imo.

You know a great coach once said. If you’re going to listen to the fans you will soon sit with them. Great job torts. Ignore the noise and take us to the promise land. Who cares about Frost guy had a handful of productive games decided to be a hero and hang out for more money. Wasn’t very good now sits on his ass until he proves otherwise. Sounds like a plan to me.

Buddy Ryan. Parcells said Buddy was a Neanderthal who attracted Neanderthal players. Maybe Torts draws inspiration from Buddy.

Torts leading the Flyers to the promised land. Kevin Hayes a locker room cancer. Pure comedy gold.

The Flyers have done their market research well and are selling to them just as effectively.

It's publicly documented that Briere does not have final say. That the Flyers front office is a triumvirate and a corroboration between Tortorella, Briere and Jones. When the head coach demotes a player who was an all star and was having a career offensive season and cuts his icetime. As well as scratching a defenseman for the last what, 5 games of the season. It's smacking you right in the face who made that call.

Your recollection is different from mine since it was stated in public that Briere had final say on the roster as any GM does and Tortorella had say on who plays. Stop making stuff up to fit the desired narrative that Tortorella is both the coach and GM.

The very article you linked to said "collaboration is the key" Briere is quoted in the article saying ""We're going to do this right and together,"

You have a reading comprehension issue. I have not stated that Tortorella is the both the coach and the GM. Stop making stuff up.

The roster is Danny’s to create. It’s in the headline. He can take input from Torts as every GM does in the NHL but it’s his roster. This isn’t hard.

You're caught, hook line and sinker. Ignore the evidence if you want to but it's clear and it's not difficult to figure out.

Body language and facial expressions don't seem good for the Phillies to me. While the Diamondbacks seem loose.

Diamondbacks are a true team, Carroll is a beast, nothing the Philadelphia Phailures have with their narcissistic roster can compete with a team of destiny like Arizona, just ask the Yankees in 2001

Last year in WS they had 15 runs in the first 3 games and 3 in the next 3. Same trend here. Hits awfully hard to come by.
