It will be enraging when they string a few wins together once they are basically eliminated from the playoffs.

inevitable.

they'll probably win their last 7 in a row, and finish one point out.

If he breaks a computer every time they do this, he could make Gateway a relevant company again.

Flyers never adjust their breakout. They always try to move the puck up the wall. Teams jump all over them. Why not adjust and use a Center breakout, with a forward coming back deep. I understand keeping the puck out of the middle of the ice. But when you have to go through a wall every time, you're going to turn pucks over. Plus constantly having to chip or flip pucks out. You have to leave the zone with possession more often.

when they do try to use the middle of the ice, the dman usually hesitates, allowing the pass to be tipped, intercepted, etc. they can't do anything right.

This team needs some puck moving defenseman or a change in style.

MAF is a curious case. he can be spectacular, but also flat out horrendous (as any goalie i guess). when he's bad, he's really bad. i personally think he's overrated. yeah, he's won a cup, but look at the support cast around him. his game has calmed down and matured, but i'm not a fan.

I am not a fan at all, and I think he's waaay overrated,

Lavi is clearly coaching them to do nothing right.

It's so obvious to us, but why can't they see it?

Watching these games is painful.

Gervais moves the puck to the tape of the opponents doesn't that count?

Another issue for me here would be when they do try to bring it up along the wall, or move the puck along the wall in the attacking zone, more often than naught they lose the puck. They just lose battles in the dirty areas far too often.

A lot of problems all over the ice basically.

Horrible. The team has been terrible all year. They just look lost out on the ice.

There has to be some kind of adjustment that can help this team. Its not as if this team doesnt have talent on it.

Im starting to think they are just so mind (frank)ed that the only real fix will be the season ending.
