michkov drysdale and york are the brighter spots
Konecny is a solid vet

Tippett is getting chances which is good but his streakiness is frustrating. We will see games like this for a stretch and then he will score like crazy

Biggest issue is the passing right now. The breakout passes are awful and many guys are just making dumb passes that are easily intercepted

Am I the only one who views Drysdale and Johnson as the third pair?

I see two 3rd pairs.

Sure glad Johnson is not not gonna block any young player from getting into the lineup as Andre watches from the press box once again. I really hope someone in the media has the guts to ask that question to Briere or Torts

I could be wrong but weren't you one of the people who said that EJ wasn't going to block anyone when he was resigned?

Letting Johnson play is an archaic move. Like playing Staal last season was.

Tippett doesn’t know how to play hockey anymore
- roenick97


Tipper will be fine. He's streaky but it's early so gotta give him a chance.

Who’s coming out for Deslauriers next game? Coots?
- Dkos


Jett Luchanko through two periods has played 5:03 at ES. Exactly what you want for the development of an 18 year old player.

Why would anyone suggest any teams? No one is part of any team and knows who would have interest.

EJ would be moved similar to how he was moved last TDL. Any Playoff team would take him for depth.

Risto is a harder sell due to the contract.

- xShoot4WarAmpsx


EJ was traded by a non-playoff team to a non-playoff team for a 4th with delusions of competence. Since that time, he has been bad. For him to have any value, the Flyers would have to keep playing him and hope he plays better. I want the Flyers to get the 1st overall pick as much as anyone but haven't the fans suffered enough watching him play over a young player?

Risto might as well have Flyer for life tattooed on his forehead because that's where he's going to stay.

Ha! I thought they'd play ND tonight to appease the fans with the thought that there might be a fight. BTW, I love hockey fights so not complaining.

You love to have your childish scapegoats when the entire team is not good.

I just call them like I see them. I told you two years ago that Myers sucked with a capital S and I was right then and I am right now.

What bothers me is he’s playing five straight games and we were told when he was signed that it was clear he was not going to block any young players yet clearly Andre and Grans are ready to play in the NHL and Andres in the press box and Grans is with the phantoms.

Flyers were a playoff team at the time of the trade. They would have likely continued to be if Ersson didnt run out of gas, not that it mattered as they would have been swpt by NYR just like WSH was

Never gonna happen. If it does, I'll give up drinking till he's back in the lineup.

Forget about the score, put Michkov with skilled players and he has a 4 point night
