That was the preseason nightmare scenario. Missing the playoffs and picking outside the top 10.

No. I have to think this whole hart situation has shaken them. They’ve gone from their best game of the year vs Dallas to getting destroyed in 5 straight games.
- Hextall271

When you get on the ice you’re not thinking about Carter Hart. Just some shoddy play against a good team. 4-0.

The third goal was flukyish but it looks like that was the dagger in the flyers this game. DB has no business staying status quo at the trade deadline. He needs to trade all chips in for the future. Laughton, Walker, Seeler, Sanheim, Couturier, and even TK need to be available. I'm not suggesting that SC can easily be traded with his contract if at all but i would listen.

Yea. It’s a very lame excuse
- ClaudeFather


I’m not saying it’s a great excuse for the team however this completely forgetting how to play seems to coincide with when the situation was coming to light. They’re professionals and should be able to overcome this but apprently not.

What is disgraceful is thia thought process of disregarding tradition and heratige
- THE BLACK HAND


What I’m saying is I don’t care one way or another. If they still played that racist old dummy singing the America song y’all can’t stop hanging on to, I’d just mute the TV, which is what I did anyway. The thought of digging into Kate Smith’s work in the early 20th century to get her “woke cancelled” or whatever you boomers get all Viagra’d about, never crossed my mind and I also find to be pretty stupid to be concerned with.

But the facts are there, so she can go sing about “darkies” in hell, all while The Flyers have top draft picks refusing to even speak with them.

Culture warrior bozos, the lot of you.

Teams played a lot of hockey. The goals have dried up, and the goalies haven’t been great. It’s not some magic moment that made them bad. First 10 minutes of this game the flyers dominate, pasta gets an incredible goal and the wheels fall off

No doubt. It would shake anyone if you saw your friend involved in something like that. They need this break and a reset for sure.

It could be uglier when we see the London police presser on February. 5

As long as the alumni continue to get good treatment this game doesn’t matter.

It was great to pay homage yesterday, and hopefully a few more roles can be found in the organization for truly incredible men to help guide the franchise in 2024.

The country club has at least a little more space right Bill?

I’m sure Jonesy can work out something out for them.

Ever worked for a company that you knew was going nowhere fast? Kinda looks like that to me, for a long long while now.
