he was a career douche bag and had one "decent" playoff run in a career of playoff failures. no flyers player has ever been celebrated so much for such a tiny contribution.

I'm not celebrating him. I'm just stating facts. He had a great playoff run in '04, and scored 37 goals in '01. And that is pretty much ALL I said on the subject. Don't recall mentioning retiring his number or campaigning for the hall of fame. But we get it, you hate the guy.

That tying goal in game 6 before Gagne won it on OT is probably one of my favourite Flyer moments.

I was a fan since '97, but that goal, really made me fall in love.

And then he got stoned by Kabibufart in Game 7 with the potential tying goal on his stick. Worthless bum.

Speaking of recent great memories.... Loved seeing his fire and excitement. Would have been the starting SCF goaltender if he doesnt get injured.

Yea, agree '95 I started watching, I didn't have cable so there'd usually be one game a week on tv I could watch if the rabbit ears were cooperating on channel 17.
That was a big series and I remember the panthers playoff series being the first series where I listened to every game on the radio if it wasn't on tv

I wanna own that entire season on whatever the future comes out with, starting with the Ray Emery signing, to the loss to the Hawks. The 2009-2010 season was magical!

It sucks to have that Pronger cap hit. I never understood the charade that has to go on between organizations and players who have experienced career ending injuries with the cap. Just seems like a goofy way of doing accounting for the salary cap in my opinion.

If you count Pronger, we have like 7 top 4 D men. Of course 2 are never on the ice anymore and one is a year from retiring. Not surprising.

To me though, those guys. Lappy, Pronger, Timonen and Briere... In 30 years, those are the guys I will remember most from these times.

The current team has guys I like, but nobody is even close to the status of what those guys meant to me as a fan.

I could care less about the drama party crew of Richards and Carter, etc. This should have been known as the Briere era.

- flyer_nutter


All those guys mentioned above, lappy especially, gave everything they had in that run in '10 to get a cup. Everyone always talks about putting it in another gear for the playoffs, but those four were red-lining it from the first game of the new jersey series to game 6 of the finals.
Nobody should forget those four. Sadly, everyone will remember all the off ice stuff and other garbage that era brought.
