I sat through "The Season that Shall Not be Named".

I also saw Claude Giroux's game winner in the SC finals in 2010. Bought a Giroux jersey solely based on that goal.

I saw most of the Eric Lindros/Jawn LeClair era.

I can sit through whatever the hell this is. I don't think it's gonna last forever.

Yup,
I sat through losing to Shero and the Rags in 79
3 straight 1st round exits in the early 80s
1990-1994
The Lindros family/Clarke (frank)fest
The embarrassments of 01, 02 and the Barber mutiny
06-07

So far, this is no big deal.

Just for poops and giggles, say we're at #1 and Arizona is at #6 and they offer the pick and OEL for the first pick?

I think the Flyers would decline and ask for Yandle.

I loved JR the player on and off the ice but JR the commentator irritates me for some reason

I'm completely with you on that.

I watched the Flyers give up a goal to the Sabres with 4 seconds left and the St Louis Blues go into the stands to fight Flyer fans...I also watched a Seals player wack his stick at Bob Clarke's head...oh the fun days

Blame Tangentman, he sent me the pic. Usually I just use a little splash of spring water, no ice at all.

bingo. they throw these passes under no duress that take the play in a negative direction. you're left thinking what could have been. the passing on D esp, is very poor and it kills whatever possible flow.

It would help if the defenseman had some consistent support, and weren't under an avalanche of a forecheck in most games. Last night in the first period, when they were playing a structured team game, forwards were coming back deep, and there were open options, the defenseman didn't seem to have a problem moving the puck. I agree that execution and the breakout has been an issue for this team. But blaming it on the defense alone, is short sighted.

Another one:

We are at #1 and FLA is at #8. They offer the 8th pick, Ekblad, Barkov and their 1st in 2016?

Yeah, I also remember Saleski pummeling the crap out of him too!

I used to go with my dad back then, I was a little tyke, those were fun times. I miss the old Spectrum and watching players without helmets. It may be better hockey in terms of skill today, but it was just so much more fun back then.
