Coburn sucks. He's never concussed anyone with an illegal hit. Such a wussy

Esche way under rated and also a boy from the historic hockey area of the EHL Clinton Comets and the Clinton arena (if its still standing) I remember him stopping 42 ? shots against the Russians in the IIHF games that year and losing, man that was sad

Read the book about the Comets and you will be amazed who actually was the GM and how players moved up through there.... and the old AHL Cleveland Barons

- Steelmanpa


his best game ever, imho, was the 2006 game 1 loss against buffalo in double OT. had over 50 saves and that little poop briere scored on a cross ice back door play that he had no chance to stop. nobody within a zip code of danny either.

Ross Lonsberry is the most underrated Flyer ever. Guy went out, played good two way hockey & scored goals.

I loved it when Ken Dryden referred to Dornhoefer in "The Game", as "the Flyer's skilled but irritating winger".

Flyers' web site suggests Laughton won't make the team unless he makes he top 9.

I found the coup d'etat staged against Bill Barber to be in poor taste.

Who does Laughton have to beat out at camp to make the team?
Rinaldo, Akeson, Rosehill?

hmm, I think he may make it

As much as Clarke was villified during some of his GM career
During the early-mid 90's when he came back, he filled the D roster with 3 ex Canadiens from their Cup teams- Svoboda, Haller and Desjardins.
