It figures that Hammond's streak ends to the Effin Rags, while paying Yandle peanuts for a year & 1/2.
Whats next?
Sather talks Stepan into a paycut?
Man that trade still bothers me, as we have to deal with it next season.

Just an unrelated, "irking me" topic.

Burns is one of those guys that is so talented, but it just doesn't quite happen.
I still love the guys game, any player that can easily go from O, to D, without an issue has some talent.

Edit: Not quite happen, (talent wise), meaning he's not mentioned in elite status.
But man I'd love to see him on our blue line!

i've never watched him closely, but he seems like a guy who could help us.

On a scale of 8 to nil, how does it compare to when you got your finger stuck in your trunk when Mike and I came to watch you play and you ended up hockey taping your finger back on?
- wilsonecho91


that was a lot worse. could barely hold my stick. this sucks pretty bad though. if that was an 8, i'll give his a 5?

because they've made a run, i love the hammond kid, and they've never won a cup - not counting the poop from 100 years ago. why not them?

Thanks Bill. I guess the Flyers will win the rest of their games; a little too late. Jake's, and Mason's season was wasted. The short term guys will be playing for next season's salary, and the longer termed guys will just be thinking about golf. Chemistry, and desire are an important to the mix, and I hope that Hexy can make some of that come together. I still have hope; just look at the Islanders, and Flames. It took Snow a long time to find the right crew. It took the Flames a while to find the right coach. Can these teams repeat their season play next season? It's getting harder to do so, just ask Roy, and the Avs.

Yikes. I've had pucks hit me under the blocker like that trying to make a save. Not fun.

So white is on the first pp unit now? Good for him. I think the flyers really should try to sign him. He's been very solid since coming here. Plus I like how he celebrates goals by sticking his tongue out haha

And that's how this season should be remembered. Fractured.

This team was broken.

Well, at least Columbus got 2 points last night.

Yeah, that's all I got.

I wouldn't be shocked if either the rangers or Montreal take it all. Just to top off this miserable season.

You're supposed to write First, you newb.

Hopefully Raffl gets his 20th, Jakes gets a bunch of points, and yet they still find a way to lose. Is that too much to ask?

Although the Sharks sound like a tired bunch.

- wolfhounds



Raffl looks like a promising player. How did the Flyers acquire him, draft?

And if we beat the Sharks today we will only be 2 points behind them. I can see Flyers with the 10 pick after winning 6 of last 8 meaning less games

So, I gotta think Chief is done after this year. Seravalli had an interesting article on Vinny today.
http://mobile.philly.com/...ports/flyers&id=297861851
I can't believe the highest paid player in hockey of all time is a healthy scratch over Zach Rinaldo. Chiefs job is to put the best team on the ice that he can. But it's also his job to get the most out of the players that he can. Severally made some good points about Vinny's play that kind of went under-appreciated. I hope we can get Babcock, but Detroit has a way of maintaining their folks. There is plenty of blame to go around for this season and it starts with Homer. All the way down to some uninspired play. But I think Chief takes the fall.

Signed from one of the European leagues. Can't remeber if it was Swedish elite or Swiss.

Not with this D and decimated roster. Hoping we tank because we just plain suck.

Hextall will put his own guy in place after season. It just doesn't make sense to have Rinaldo on the 3rd line and Vinny on the 4th. But... Chief has made a lot of head scratching decisions this year

This is the best ranger team I've ever seen. I find it hard to hate that team. Even though their the Rangers. Bunch of solid decent players

I think pearl jam's ok. Not great, not bad. Never listened to Springsteen much, mostly because too many people told me I had to.

This is why the flyers are not in the playoffs. With Simmonds out, white is now on a PP unit.
