Manning makes every defensive partner look bad! His partners are always trying to cover their own responsibilities and his gaffes!
- Hokeeguy9


I think the weak link on that pairing has been Gudas. He just hasn't played well overall this season. I also think that Gudas and Manning just don't mix well as a pairing. On one of the Rangers goals on Sunday, they were literally hip to hip in the slot with Rangers behind them at the net.

Does Raanta himself really want to stay with ARZ? Hes a soon to be UFA and could walk this offseason.
- arichardson22


Just playing devils advocate, but when hes been backup as long as he has the thought of it being his job for the foreseeable future might be enticing. However, wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to get away fro that train wreck of a franchise

They both aren't very mobile and would benefit from having a partner who is a strong puck carrier and can make a good first pass. Ideally that could be Sanheim but I don't think we see him up unless there is an injury. If I'm Hex I'd look to unload Manning for a 4th and use 2, 4ths on a goalie then proceed to call up Sanheim.

Flyers are going to have to create some space for next season on the defense for some youngsters to come in. It will be interesting to see what they do.
- MJL


I’d be surprised if they traded Gudas or amac ahead of camp. Manning won’t be back. But Hextall is going to make the kids earn it.

I’ve been a big fan of Myers, but he can’t seem to stay healthy and he can be better in his own end.

Sanheim needs to work on the little nuances of the game.

Morin’s season seems like it’s a total loss

Believe it or not I am prepared but we won’t suck as long as the flyers have( see 10year rebuild) can’t do that in new York but we’ll be back. It may take a year maybe two but nowhere near 10 so good luck trying to make the playoffs for the first time in a while the eagles win their first super bowl and the flyers might make the playoffs nice
- Bobd62


10 year rebuild? wtf are you talking about? that's not even close to reality.

there is loads of young talent being slowly filtered in, with much more to come in all areas, including goal - whether it's hart or sandstrom. they are going to be (frank)ing loaded.

why are you in here anyway?

By the way...... where were the flyers when this picture was taken? Oh yeah that’s right they were on the golf course!
- Bobd62


the rangers still lost. if that's how you want to go, shall we revisit 1998-2005?

Personally if we need to baby sit you on a pairing your e not worth it. Provorov and gost are their ideal partners but neither are good enough to play with those 2.

lmao at the Rangers fan in here.

That franchise has had the best goalie of the century, and all they have accounted for is a SCF loss.

Also funny he said earlier in the thread you can’t do a long rebuild in NY. Before the lockout they missed the playoffs 7 times in a row.

with the flyers doing the honors, ushering gretzky out of the playoffs for the last time.

They’ve won one Cup since prior to the U.S. entry into WWII. That franchise is an utter joke!

Apparently we're getting someone named Ville Leino for a 5th round pick.

How much I hated him. He dated one my sister's friends and he thought people who wore jerseys and cheered/boo'd were weird and needed lives.

How smart can you be if you don't realize and appreciate that those are the very people who permit you to live at the level of comfort to which you have rapidly become accustomed?

Mrazek is at the top of my list of possible goalies for the current Flyers situation. 3rd round pick is not the end of the world IMO.
- Pixote Andolini


i am not sold on mrazek, but if all it takes is a 3rd rounder to get a legit upgrade, then do it. JFC, we have a million picks. Holmger used to pass out 2nd rounders like dollar bills at a coke party. they'll survive.

Oh dear god. We've got a rangers fan here talking smack when his team is in shambles to the point management is sending letters to fans saying we're going to suck.

And if we want to talk about non championship accomplishments, the flyers have been in the final twice since 94 to the rangers once, in the semis 4 other times and own a 2 to 1 head to head series record.

10 year rebuild when we've been to the semis and final in the last 10 years along with the playoffs 7 times in that span. Some rebuid

But hey. whatever makes you feel better as we steamroll past your franchise. Love seeing the rags suffer!
