He goes against the culture they are trying to build like Hayes did.

You give him a chance and hold him accountable. The culture fallback is bulls**t. The team has autocratic leadership(Torts). Cohesion and conformity taken to an extreme is groupthink. Torts’ model is sustainable for about two years before it frays. Maybe Johansen doesn’t work out. But you don’t waste an asset before finding out.

Big game tonight to show one last time to DB where the Flyers are in relation to the best team in the NHL. I still believe the are some things the Flyers can do before tomorrow. We’ll see if they can continue this route of accumulation of future assets.

tonight has the feeling getting ran over. Flyers won last time, Panthers playing really well and playing playoff hockey. Add Tarasenko loves playing the Flyers. I hope I am wrong but with all the peeps out of the lineup etc.

I think they are going to buy out RyJo. Torts hates that dude. I would not be surprised to see RyJo, Peterson and Atkinson all bought out. So that number will 100% go up.

That would make the Flyers colosally stupid and epically incompetent.

the Bruins need a center that is good in defensive zone draws. Perhaps they would take him off our hands? He would be cheap (the Flyers could cover $2M) and collect another draft pick, albeit a lower one.

The Bruins are looking for a top 6 center.

Like how?

Reports are that he is a locker room cancer and a cancer whos skills are diminishing. Avs fans are so happy he is not there anymore.

Flyers get a first round pick and send the man to the Phantoms.

By giving him a chance to play for the Flyers.

You really gonna blame Jake (and Claude) when Andrew MacDonald was playing top-pair minutes, Elliott/Neuvirth/Mrazek were in net, and none of the secondary scoring could contribute beyond 40-points?

Culture barely matters when you don't have the talent to win the games. The top teams all have multiple HOF forwards, Norris-trophy dmen and Vezina-level goaltenders. There's no way any of the Flyers teams over the past 15-years could measure up.

Absolutely , make excuses all you want. They were the leaders of the team and failed.

Is there a culture cup? A spread sheet or stat website anywhere that I can see who has the most culture? If you win the culture cup, do we get to have a parade? Asking for a friend.

There isnt a stat, thats why i said i wouldnt expect you to understand. And clearly you dont. You cant comprehend anythinng that cant be explained by a stat. Guessing youve never played a team sport because you dont have a clue , so i dont blame you , but you cant just dismiss it. But you do.

And 2X Bruins 2X Leafs coming up in March. 2 teams flyers usually looks fragile and weak against.

I don’t think they hate Torts….well maybe Sanfillipo? I like that podcast.
- landros 2

I don't think any of them like Torts after he wailed on SanFillipo regarding the Hayes story.

After they traded their most consistent d man this year…they may be in for the “let down game”.

I was going to ask you, what are you hearing about Lindholm? Are the Canucks sour on him already?

I just reported what I have been reading. Never said I agree with it. I asked yesterday why not start him. Just makes sense to, it would keep ND out of the line barring injury.

Together they're +138
