Today is the day to do some game watchin’!

Islanders/Rangers
Flyers/Devils
Leafs/Wings
Penguins/Bruins

Odds are against us but nice long day for hockey

Another alumni night.

I’m shocked.

How Comcast allows this franchise to be held in such a grip by its alumni, and the philosophies those men believe - is downright laughable.

The Flyers are a play thing for antiquated men.

What idiot still believes this isn’t just another retool? Rebuild my ass.

Rangers crazy dangerous shorthanded against the Islanders. Islanders getting handed PP’s like party favors and they haven’t looked good.

Edit

Right at the end of the PP 1-1 🤮

No wait. Called back offside

Wayne Simmonds should unretire tomorrow and be a player coach like Reggie Dunlop!

Bill, with the Phantoms also fighting for their playoff lives, what is the point of having Attard and Ginning up with the Flyers and sitting in the press box?

He has been unjust and unfairly banned for the following post...

Far worse goes on in here, including personal insults on a daily basis. For someone to be banned for several MONTHS because of the following is laughable.

Wrong way to handle it: Shrug, tap the podium, walk away.

Agree. Instead of shrugging and tapping the podium, Tortorella should have said he was non-competitive.

You seem very quick to criticize Tortorella, yet with incompetent boobs who the Flyers employed it was crickets.

How does Tortorella's coaching career stack up against Holmgren's?

How's Chuck Fletcher doing these days? Where in the NHL is he working after running the Flyers into the ground.

Big scrawny Broke Nelson made up for his mistake with 2 goals.

Islanders are getting two points in this game

what did wayne Simmonds do as a flyers do get a dedicated retirement night?

You don’t challenge Bill. Not about Torts. Not about Frost. Not about anything.

There are bigger reasons to ban or long term ban anyone but it doesn’t happen. You only get banned over bullpoop emotion and by those who hold the power to do so.

Realistically there’s no chance they make it even if they win out which will be a task.

2-2

- hello it's me 2050

I remember his hatrick versus the Rags in the playoffs.

Rags tie it. I cant believe I am rooting for the Rangers.

Well, they made their own bed with several horrible displays lately. It would have been to Mickey Mouse if they got in.

I too have noticed Bill's free criticism of Tortorella and the absence of anything similar in past years. I did not say anything out of politeness. I suspect I am not alone

People shouldn't be banned for saying something that has an underlying truth to it, irrespective of how they say it.

Flyers cant catch the Islanders now.

Another alumni night.

I’m shocked.

How country club allows this franchise to be held in such a grip by its alumni, and the philosophies those men believe - is downright laughable.
