I'm not negative just realistic there's a huge difference
- JoeRussomanno


I'm just kidding. I was screaming at them to just shoot the puck. It's infuriating to see them attempt pass after pass across the ice, through 3 defenders.

If Thomas' hip didn't fall off I wonder if it we would even have a goal

Imo they're a slow team. We just think they're fast.

True... I think the pick support has improved marginally but they are still giving up golden opportunities at 5 on 5 ... If berube is gonna have an impact i suspect it'll take a couple weeks to show

Anyone expecting a switch to flip was not being anything close to realistic.

In season coaching changes are so tough. When Lavi took over, the Flyers were terrible for the first 12 games.

They lost 8-2 to the Caps in his first game.

The defense is slow. There's no denying that. The forwards...don't have as much speed as is optimal. But if they can improve the back-end speed, it will help.

If I'm not mistaken, that was the game Dan Carcillo knocked out the Caps' tough guy because he thought they were gonna go and the other guy never dropped his gloves. Carcillo ended up getting, like, a million PIMs on the play, giving the Caps a bunch of PP time.

Yeah they got a 9 minute PP out of it, and killed the Flyers off of it.

He really is. He needs time to try and get re-acclimated, but my patience is only going to go so long.

Good point. I want to see them pick it up in the 3rd period.

I understand the desire to trade one of the Dmen for something of value, but this team needs Gus. Not a cure, but I think he would certainly be an improvement.
