If it was one game, I'd be fine with it. This is two games in a row they've blown leads against divisional rivals.

This fanbase is too hard on this team. Lots of young players and they have some holes that need to be filled. I'm not worried at all.

Deserves got nothing to do with it. If he can't get these guys going, Holmgren will find someone that will.

People seem to forget 2010 almost didn't happen if boucher doesn't make that save. Everyone was talking about an underachieving team and inconsistent, and all that stuff. then BAM, game 6 of the stanley cup final.

Same stuff happened in 2011. got outcoached by boston. BAM, carter and richards gone.
2012, same stuff. blame bryz. inconsistent. get out-coached by jersey.
Now this year.

Really, take 2010 out and its been here all along for 3 years now.

Guys can't play good enough for lava, but other can't play their way out of the lineup.
Better coaches out-coach him.

Time to go.

Didn't they do this against the devils earlier in the season too?

It's just one game. Sleep it off. Flyers are going to be just fine.
- stveshdy


Hell I am 100% with you. I will sleep completely fine tonight.

After the display of most of the idiots during the lockout that showed me they were in it for nothing but greed and money, I care a lot less than I once did. For this season at least.

already burnt that 3rd/4th pick as well. Read is back already. Flyers have the #6 pick right now based on points per game.

Well, considering they've lost 6 or 7 straight to the Devils, they all kind of bleed in together

lavy era coming to an end...i thought the timeout was a goal too late and pulling bryz made no sense. the team has time off this month and i expect a change at that time if not sooner, unless the they go on a win streak.

i'm done.

We had about a dozen of these moments during the 09-10 season.

Still made it to the Cup Finals with Michael Leighton/Boucher in net.

I would be a lot more willing, if there was someone more likely than Murray or Paddock.

Basically the teams who they play the most have them figured out. Time for a change, fast.

Honestly...I don't understand how Rinaldo does not get more time then a player like Briere, Couturier or honestly even Giroux tonight..

It looked like Jake and Rinaldo were the only forwards that were engaged in the game.

Where the hell is the rest of the team reacting like Voracek did at the end..Breaking their stick.. Did you see when Bryz got pulled..He didn't even seem angry , as much as you can tell by watching a dude in a mask. Was just sort of oh well.

I also can't wait to see the 610 Wannabe's come on here crying about Bryz..

Lavi has run his course I think..Something is not right and that is the easiest move to make.

IN close...Dale! or whatever the hell Pitbull says

- opeth_pa


Bryz has seemed very frustrated in post game interviews lately. I think he's trying hard to not erupt

If you can't beat anyone in the division other then the Isles, there is a problem. What I don't understand is how the Deb defense which isn't much more talented then the Flyers and with goalies who are as old as me, don't have near the defensive lapses this team incurs.

Honestly, I think Lava's shelf life has run its course.

This was an epic failure by this team. No heart or soul, what a f-ing disgrace. I mean really up 4-1 at home against biggest rival and this is what happens. They got schooled. No other way to put it. This team doesn't deserve to wear the orange and black.

I'm embarrassed to be a Flyers fan right now.[/img]

Murray could at least show them how to play defense a little bit. But I wouldnt' want him longer than to end the season.

I'd rather get someone from outside the organization that knows how to win. but that won't happen.
