In my opinion what it doesn't look like is Hextall going out and spending on big ticket free agents. Hextall is smart enough not to overreact and to stay the course.

Nice assist by TK there

I don’t think Ghost should be on the first D pairing next year. He would be better off on second pairing.

10-1 in 2 home playoff games..


just brutal.

I just love the girl in the front row in a flyers shirt celebrating that goal.

I know it doesnt matter, but this 3rd pairing gives up so many odd man rushes.

A Kimmo/Hartnell or LeClair/Desjardins trade would be nice. It's about the right time I think (next year or two).

More stellar Manning ....(frank)...what 3 years 6 mil...get her done Hextall....stay the course.

I'd have no problem bringing Manning back as a 7th defenseman on a cheap deal.

He was supposed to be a 7th defenseman this year, and look what happened? I don't want him as a seventh defenseman or an 8th, 9th what ever. Look for another defenseman if you think you need a vet presence as depth in case of injuries etc. He should be nowhere near this team next season. If he is then it shows to a lot of people Hexy values crap way to much on this team.

Don’t worry the future is brighter than an infinite amount of suns.

Bundy with the puck luck statement. What a stooge.

They need to trust Sanheim to play more minutes on 5 on 5.

I don't see him going hog wild there either.

Just for comic relief. Think about Johnny Oduya's tenure as a Flyer.

Umm not that I condone going after them but as of right now Erik Karlsson and John Tavares are both slated to be UFAs. It's the best UFA crop in some time.

Sucks that Coots missed this game but you know what...

7-0 in game 1
5-1 in game 3

Coots in those games..Just dont want to hear that as an excuse for tonight.

There are players that can help this team that won’t break the bank.

Tavares is. Karlsson has another year on his deal

What happened is young defenseman such as Sanheim and Morin weren't ready earlier in the season. When I say I'd take him back as a 7th, it's as a 7th. Meaning he only plays in case of injury. You can do a lot worse than Manning as a 7th. The idea that he should be nowhere near this team next season is nonsense. He's fine as a depth 7th defenseman.

Just got home. Was it as bad as it looks???

Erik Karlsson with 1 good foot and leaving the prime of his career for 7 years at 10m per

no thanks

if Tavares doesn't resign with the Islanders why would he sign here? what do we have to immediately offer that NYI doesn't?
