The bottoms not falling out of the team this year. People waiting for it will be disappointed. They aren’t going to sell either. Clubs just don’t come into Vancouver and do this. They are on the doorstep of beating the top team in the nhl twice. Contender? I don’t think they are. But they are a problem for teams

Or cramping in his leg? Looked like he was flexing his leg.

I think they are definitely a problem for teams. They work their asses off. I still think they’ll fall back a bit and regardless, they need to sell with a view to the future. Does t look like we’ll be trading from a position of weakness anyway.

If TK's last shift was the goal, he was told to watch the rest of the game from the locker room. Torts was not happy with the dangle and giveaway high in the offensive zone. He had an opportunity to get the puck to the net and instead gives up the puck.

Yes. Wonder what the issue is. Holy god, this team just continues to surprise me.

Good job for the flyers. I thought they might be in trouble after the early 3rd period goal against.

I wonder if Gauthier pulls a Makar and makes his debut in the playoffs- if the Flyers get that far.

He was shaking his wrist pretty obviously when he left the ice too.

The 2023-24 3 time Jack Adam’s award winner 2, the fake award contender 0, and both games not even close!

Yup, like I said the Flyers will make the playoffs and I promise you no team wants to play them.

The Flyers will fall short because they just don’t have the talent of the PP, but just think about it, with even an average PP, this Flyers team would be at the top of the league.

I won't be disappointed if it doesn't, but even if they continue to play well, do you honestly think NJD or Carolina will miss over the Flyers?

Who misses?

NYR
Carolina
NYI
Philly
NJD
Washington
Pittsburgh
Tampa
Toronto
Florida
Detroit
Boston
So 3 from each division automatically make it...I think that will be NYR, NJD, Carolina, Boston, Toronto, and one of Tampa/ Florida. So who misses the wc slots out of the 6 Teams who don't get top 3 spots.

Washington and Pitts are weakest...that leaves 2 spots for 4 teams...so one of probably NYI, Philly, Detroit and Tampa or Florida.
I don't think we make it over any of those 4. I would think NYI and Tampa/ Florida would make it.

Just my opinion

Sanheim lost his feet allowing the Canucks forward to skate by him, that set it all up on the Canucks goal.

You are so childish. Torts is not winning COTY.

How is Tocchet the fake award winner? His team is first place in the league.

I have zero respect for the islanders, the flyers are a much better team. I think it will be 4 teams from each division.

What truth? Your expectations? No truth there only someones hopes.

And how would the Flyers coach winning the COTY award hurt me?
Your childish crap won't work on me.

Just accept it, the Flyers have beaten yet another top team twice this season, handily! I’m not saying Tocchet is a bad coach, just that he has a team with 3 elite players while Torts has a team with 0 elite players, and Torts team has won twice! Just deal with it.

Fitting. I seem to have zero respect for you and your opinions. You sound like a Maple Leaf or Canuck fan for gods sake.

Give it a break.

Tory’s was asked about TK in post game interview and said TK would be fine. Feed was crap so didn’t get the whole answer.
