This team is like brayden schenn... They don't do anything very well.

The team speed of the hawks is so obvious against the flyers.... Sadly we have a loooong way to go before we are a contender again.

i don't know why but i'm beginning to hate him. he'll get traded within a season and go on to score a cup winning goal against them in 3 years.

Berube should bench someone, get dressed and start a fight with Kane

So, Berube should dress up like a Buffalo cab driver?

and somehow the flyers will end up with pick #4 even if it's not possible according to the new draft rules.

Do you watch Patrick Kane play and constantly think to yourself, (frank), we should've had him in that draft?

I do.

Not sure if you guys believe in measuring stick games, but here is a clear case of how far off this team is from being contenders.

Everything I want to see in the Flyers, Chicago has.

That first goal was frustratingly illegal.
- JAKEw1234

What upsets me about the first goal is you have Del Zotto within view and the eventual goal scorer stand in clear site of the puck. Del Zotto was too slow and might have helped put it in himself. At the same time I've seen goalies who are unsure if they have it or not but know they're on top of it cover both their front and back of the five hole so the puck isn't in site.

I mean, all the bleating about Zac Rinaldo, Jason Akeson, etc. It's like looking at someone who survived a car wreck and wondering when they were gonna pop that zit on there nose.

Fact is, compared to the top teams, the Flyers are not that talented, and it's showing up in a big, bad way right now. They are talented enough to get by in the East, maybe, but I don't think they'd make the playoffs out West.

The Hawks make this team look like they are skating in mud.

The one neat thing I saw was BSchenn, Couturier, and Simmonds on a line. Or did I imagine that?

- johndewar


i have no clue. all i saw was 3 goals in less than 5 minutes after i turned the game on at 0-0. i can't see straight i'm so nauseous.

With a period like that, I'm unsure how we can blame one guy.

I dream of Jack in O&B then realize the Flyers will finish just enough to do nothing in the playoffs and no chance at a great pick.

Ugh now I know how Leaf fans have felt for over a decade.

My vote is for Umberger. The guy is useless. Get Chief out there, at least there will be some entertainment

Not as hilarious as when we trade Brayden Schenn to get him (because you can only trade a Schenn for a Van Riemsdyk) and Brayden Schenn goes on to be a 50 goals scorer and Trevor Van Riemsdyk retires due to post concussion syndrome.

- Doc_Sarcasm


i hate kane. i hate his face, i hate his stupid smirk, i hate his punk behavior. i hate that he's not a flyer. i hate that we have luke schenn instead of him. i hate that he scored the SC winning goal against us on our own ice after carter missed a wide open net to force a game 7 only to see carter moved and win 2 cups in the next 3 seasons.

you can't make this up. if there's a god, he (frank)ing hates my guts.

Flyers draft 1st overall, but but the ball picked by Bettman is dropped, and when the ball is found, the logo on it is obscured, so Flyers actually end up picking 2nd.

Flyers end up drafting QVR 2nd overall, who is later traded for Duke Schenn, D man from Toronto who turns out to be a bust.

- feelingkettle

nah we'll trade for his brother Puke Schenn instead

Trade the Schenns and a pick for Ladd and Buff. Call up Laughton.

At least we'll be a pain in the ass to play if we suck.

and now I see that the Rangers have tied the Devils... a night that started out full of promise in the world of hockey has rapidly deteriorated.
