So if management heads were to roll, do you start with Homer or Lavi?
I guess I think either getting fired is a mistake, but when people say major moves wil be made, that is what I envision.

- Marc D

Same here. That's not a choice I want to make nor do I think either being fired moves the Flyers forward.

Is it Lavi's fault if Homer doesn't get him the right players to win with his coaching sys...

hmm better not go there

- Marc D


When has THAT mattered?!?!?

Seriously, though, the Flyers ALWAYS nuke the coach before the manager. Always.

Speaking of suspensions, did Brad Stuart get anything for his elbow to the head of Landeskog?

That's just it. It's not Lavi's fault he doesn't have the players and it's not completely Homer's fault that his attempts to get Suter or Weber failed to bring one of them in. They're just better waiting it out and seeing if NSH wants to trade Weber this summer.

I'm not so sure that reading off season comments made, and looking at the moves made, that the GM was trying to send a message to the Coach.

Sorry. I was eating my lunch. Nice piece of chicken and some red beans and rice.

Mine is going to be a bacon cheeseburger and a couple beers here in about an hour.

Easier and cheaper to throw the coach overboard first. You see this in all sports.

Correct. The only exception, I think, was when they did both, in 2006-07.

Being that you're a Pens fan, we had to make it look like we were trying to help. Sort of like a slow motion, "Nooooooooooo!" in the movies.

Not sure if this is a real question but i'm not falling for it. Must backread first to make sure...

Legit question. My travels can be related to North meaning the Poconos and south meaning Sea Isle City.

Technically, Clarke had to beg Snider to accept his resignation.

Hitch did get nuked, though

I prefer keeping Laviolette, but I can live with Murray. I think he's a good coach.

Note...not saying Murray or Paddock excite me, either

IMO, he should have got a few games. But I'm not Brendan Shanahan

While I was looking for that pick I found what might be the best halloween costume of all time...






At least I hope it's a costume.
