only because he's not on the Flyers
Anyone who says otherwise is a liar. lol - Scoob
While this is true. I actually don't like how Travis Konecny carries himself at times on the ice. Yeah, it's great he can agitate and throw players off their game but I've never respected players who seemingly do this and 90% of the time have the refs save their ass by getting in between him and the other guy.

I don't put TK into that category but yes, there have definitely been Flyers who I didn't care for at all.

Sid deserves all the credit he gets. I think Malkin is not given enough credit, if he is not the #2 center, Sid would still be very good but his numbers would have been hit.
Fault the Flyers for not really give G a 2nd pivot even close to a Malkin.
I do think Sid is the best player in the league, that is why I hate to watch him complain sometimes. Against Calgary he got whacked on the hands, he complained for 3 shifts, say your peace and end it. I think he knows he will get a make up call. If I owned a business I would also treat my #1 guy a little different. But man Crosby took a guys finger off, shut up and play - wcorvette
its kinda unfair to blame a team for not sucking for multiple yrs enough to get the first and 2nd overall pick in yrs with generational players but I get what you mean

Don't agree with this at all, TK has a chip on his shoulder and when he is hitting he is more involved. He likes to stir the pot but he isn't out here slew footing guys or throwing a crap elbow. Go back and watch the Leafs game, he tries to hit Matthews every chance he gets, why would you not like a guy like this on your team?

yeah, you can only try to suck like that, no guarantee you will

This, 100% this. TK is scrappy and can get under an opponents skin, but he’s not a cheap shot dirtbag like Marchand. I wish more of our players played the way TK does.

For real? Coming down pretty hard? Sticking to the roads at all? Storm missed me in Lancaster, but am going to make the drive soon. - Fryman4
Im not sure about highways, but all my side roads are completely covered and its coming down in those big flakes. (Im in Jersey about 10 miles from WFC)

I didn't say I didn't like Konecny. I said I don't like how he carries himself at times. He's often saved by refs when he seriously upsets a guy looking to rip his head off.

Brayden Schenn was arguably much dirtier when he tried to get under people's skin than TK is.
Must win in my mind. I would like to see the Flyers come out and be the team of 2012ish. Where the Penguins would be leading and the Flyers decide they're gonna upset a key player like Crosby or Malkin. A fight breaks out and we come from behind for the victory.
Does anyone in here still hate Crosby because with his recent undeserving Conn Smyths, I hate him more. I feel sorry for Malkin or Kessel for producing more in the playoffs, the team comes up big and Crosby gets his name on the hardware. In my mind, everyone prior to the last two seasons was more than deserving until Crosby was put on there. - SuperSchennBros
WTF kind of question is that? I am a little concerned that you think that hatred might have wavered. Someone check SuperSchenner's Flyers Fan credentials

Saved by refs? You mean officials doing their jobs?
I love a guy who can under an opponents skin and draw penalties like TK does, and he does it without cheap shotting guys or playing dirty.
The guy is a skill player who stands maybe 5’10 and 180 pounds. Do you really expect or want him to be dropping the gloves with guys who are 3 or 4 inches taller and 20-30 pounds heavier?

I'm in Roxborough (NW Philly) and there is maybe 3-4 inches out there of snow and slush. Streets aren't treated either but we aren't a priority. I'm sure center city and south philly will be better

Hang on...
Are you guys aware that you guys do stuff like this often? My original statement was I don't like Sidney Crosby. I love watching him lose. He's a player I don't like how he's handed things and how he carries himself. Someone I mentioned that I feel this way only because he's not on our team. I used Travis Konecny as an example as while I don't hate Konecny, I don't always like how he carries himself on the ice. This has nothing to do with dirty or cheap shots.

TK does not whine to the refs three shifts after a supposed missed call, what are you talking about? Playing with an edge and constantly complaining to the refs is totally different.
