Wonder if White got his bell rung by Thornton

Good Lord. Wheels and Gagner in, Mason out, and they just hung 7 on them

I want to be positive but this is challenging at the moment

Blow it up. Be bold, no more half measures.

I would rather have a young team learning and getting better throughout the year than watch this bunch.

- psuhockey

the core up front isn't exactly old, and they're already bringing young defensemen along

what exactly are they going to blow up? The contracts they clearly can't trade?

I have conflicting reports.

I'm hearing our 2nd pp Unit is coots Gagner Schenn Medvedev mdz.

Manning is out for gudas.

And Vinny is not in for white. White playing.

Based on all the sources I believe the above to be true.

I'm guessing after the ass whipping they just took, the team will be plenty disciplined and focused tonight.

Wonder what's up with Umberger and White?

Gudas and Schenn both in make sense. We got head hunted by them on Saturday. If for nothing else but to make sure we match the physicality I like it.

Hope you are right -- not ready to see Wheels yet, tbh. At least not in the same lineup with Gagner

I can't believe the Flyers are using Nick Schultz on a first pairing. Not ideal to say the least.
- PLindbergh31


Streit-Schultz would make a decent 3rd-pair for a middling Cup-contender, lol.

Maybe Hak is thinking if Vinny is on the receiving end of a 7-1 beating he'll finally call it quits and retire

Can't wait to see Vinny blow his knee out. The next LTIR nightmare.

Yup. It is what it is. Nearly $10mm (1/7 of the cap) not dressing for the Flyers is a tough pill to swallow. Still, this too will end. Someday.

This is why Hextall needs to just bite the bullet and retain salary on these trades. We have the cheap talent now to justify the dead money.

- BulliesPhan87

The core up front isn't old, it's in its prime for the most part and they aren't getting it done. When the defense is ready, they will be on the decline. So what will these guys be contributing in 3 years.

Voracek I think will still be able to be to contribute much like Hossa. Giroux will no longer be a top notch 1st line center at even strength, but will be able to contribute on the power play and in key moments much like Briere. But as for everyone else, its debatable. I like Couturier but I haven't seen anything that says he is more than a 3C and 3C's shouldn't be untouchable.

(all of everything written below is in no way a reflection on Bill)

WOW!

this board sucks anymore. There is so much negativity.

It sucks, this site use to be the go to site to talk to people who enjoyed the team, had good insight on the play and pulse of the team.

Now, it is typical Philly media garbage. It sucks. All you negative nancy's chased away the peeps who added value to this board. Complaining about this team after 2 games.

And the constructive criticism is fine if you come back with some solid ideas on what to do differently or how to change some things up.

But we all know the same peeps who do nothing but female dog and NEVER add anything positive or even informational.

IT SUCKS!
