Oh I can think of one change Jack. Guess what I'm thinking.

If they need a coach to get them going... then they are not professional athletes.

The players can't blame anybody but themselves today!!!

I agree with this as far as motivation, but if the coaches can't put a system in place or get these players to play defense then we need a coach who can. Preferably one that has the balls to sit a player regardless of his name or salary if he's not playing up to par.

Yup. Any one of us could have figured out that after being called out by their captain and coming off a bad game, the Flyers would play all out today. If the players need a coach to tell them that and get them to figure out they actually have to play hockey to win hockey games, then the problems are bigger than Cappy. Although...let's face it...Cappy's a pretty dreadful coach

Players do not deserve a pass but let's be honest there is no indication the Isles want to change the players or GM so it's going to fall on the coach.

What a concept a captain calling out his team and look at the results. If only our captain can do that but someone would have to call out the captain first.

There's no indication they want to change their coach either as of now...

If I was the owner, I would have told Snow and Capuano if changes aren't made ASAP, I'm firing you both...

I get Wang does not like hockey and may want to sell but how can he not do anything? Does he have no pride? I get Jack is not the answer but Snow should have to answer for this team. The GM and coach should both go.

that stinks. Sounds like Radek was told to fake an injury until someone went down and they could activate him without losing anyone to waivers.

If i were the owner of this team neither Snow or Capuano would've been hired in the first place and if i had a momentary lapse of reason and this thing somehow happened then I would have had them both executed by now.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha.

Matt Martin is becoming one of my favorite guys on this team - well honestly you could only like three but that's besides the point.

This was a hometown beatdown, embarrassing to say the least. Would have loved to be in a room with some boys from the dynasty watching this game.... Pathetic.

JT read too much media today...he was out trying to do too much. Love the guy and he is the b est player and one of the best in the league. He needs to do the things that got him here. not trying to deke through 2 or 3 guys...he will rebound and this loss may just be wt they needed....
- Nolanders



Not for nothing but he is the only 1st liner on that line. Moulson obviously has great chemistry but i don't think he is a true first liner but i wouldn't move him. But another fast skating skilled winger is desperately needed. Boyes is certainly not the guy.

JT is trying to do too much because he doesn't have any confidence with the guys he plays with. He needs some help or his patience will ware thin.

Burke is one of the best GM's out there - just a little controversial. Keenan is a no bullpoop coach, someone they need right now. This team needs accountability and what better guy to have?
