It better not be stupid Sixers Post Game Live.....
- aosplayo

Even if it's Flyers' post-game Live you're probably better turning off the TV.

A return to focusing on players that bring hard work first and foremost, and do so consistently in every zone on the ice would be priority #1 to me.

We are agreed.

As a 22 year old guy, in my experience most teenage asian girls have come with the body of a 12 year old.

Just me.

I like Lavi, but he isn't getting it done. I'll not be surprised to see Murray on Friday.

Matt Greene and Willie Mitchell also aren't guys you break the bank for. Both, as veteran Dmen with many years of experience, make less than Luke Schenn is making on his rookie contract. Willie as a UFA shopping his services could only get 3.5 mill a year. He'd be the 5th highest paid dman on the flyers. Greene would be the 6th highest paid defenseman on the flyers

They are role players, important but complimentary pieces. Pieces you spend a few mill for in FA but you make them the cornerstone of your defense. The 2nd highest paid defenseman on the Kings wouldn't even be in the top for for Philly who has the top paid defense in the league (i think).

- Flyers_01


Flyers didn't break the bank for Luke Schenn. The salary is really irrelevant. It's what they bring to the ice that matters. Willie Mitchell is far more then a role player for LA. He was a key defenseman in their Cup run.

fair enough, and a reasonable attitude. i'm sure he's not happy with the team and is doing whatever he thinks will help the team. he's never been shy about doing that. my reply was probably more of a comment on what seems to be the mentality of many on here that Homer is somehow to blame for all this than it was to your specific post.

Understood. I don't get my hackles up 'round here all that often.

I think they need to re-capture it. The Flyers have a "brand" of hockey that's been their identity but they've lost it.
- Flyskippy


This is really what happens when a team is toast. They're so frustrated by the lack of results. I disagree completely that they lack heart. They are just a beaten team. And the main reason is the horrendous job done by Laviolette. Not the only reason, but the main reason. This has been a downhill slide all game. You just can't play the way they play.

Heh, took me three tries to finish the Silmarillion. You get a badge that says "Geek of Dorkdom" when you finish it. You have to send away for it, but worth it!
- Flyskippy



You're a better man than me...I just couldn't trudge through it even though I'm sure there would have been a lot of good lore there.

Oh well.

If you haven't already, Patrick Rothfuss' 2 books (3rd out soon) are good.
