If O'Neill has to go in for Morin does that mean one of the veteran forwards have to come out because of the veteran max?

I think this is correct. I'm guessing Lyon will be given every opportunity to push Neuvirth out of a job.
- johndewar

Shouldn't be that hard. All he has to do is bump into him "accidently" in the locker room and Neuvirth will shatter into a million pieces.

maybe if he snaps his fingers Neuvy will turn into dust

Nope, its a tribute band playing Jeff Lynne/ELO/Songs he produced for others like Tom Petty and George Harrison.

I can honestly say that I would enjoy seeing your band. My family still ridicules me for having every ELO album ever made. They say I never got out of 1978.

to twpguy (quotes not working even tho I already posted )

that is so silly to move on from Morin because of one injury filled season. Prior to this season he played 2 healthy season.

Your family needs to be slapped. ELO rocks and Jeff Lynne is a (frank)ing genius.

Ok, you don't need to actually slap them, but man, if you don't like ELO, then you just don't like music.

Imagine being a -450 series favorite against a team missing their top two players and getting embarrassed in 5 games. Brutal. Process of elimination.

At least the confetti didn't go to waste.

So it's which one has the better hair wins the job?

Yeah it's pretty sad.

Hell, most pundits had the Sixers missing the playoffs, and finishing right around .500. Certainly even the most optimistic folks never had them winning a playoff round. FFS, they're probably one of, if not the youngest teams in the NBA and they will likely have yet another lottery pick with the Lakers pick at the 2018 draft. This team is going to be a monster for a long time.

All in all, it's a great time to be a Philly sports fan.

The Flyers made the playoffs, have a great prospect group, 2 first round picks in the top 20 in the upcoming draft and they'll be shedding more dead weight just by letting guys on expiring contracts walk. They are set up to soon be a top team for a long time. Also, their minor league team, which is being fueled from some great play by prospects like Lyon, Lindblom, Vecchione, and Myers is doing great in the AHL playoffs.

The Phillies are well over .500 and have some great young arms and bats. They have an owner who is willing to spend like the big boys too so you have to think that they will be a contender pretty soon.

And while I know as a Cowboy fan you probably don't want to hear this, but the Eagles just won the (frank)ing Superbowl and they are still the class of the NFC East going into 2018 and are a legit contender to win it again.

How any Philly sports fan can be negative right now is something that I just can't understand.

I agree with you. the only thing I will point out is that Boston isn't going away because they will get healthy and they have high picks still coming their way so Colangelo has A LOT of work to do and honestly I am not confident in his ability to do so. Seems like the Celtics have the better overall team talent, coach and GM. Now I won't pretend to know anything about college BB to know whether Fultz is going to be a good pro or not but I did wonder why Boston was so willing to trade that #1 pick. Tatum looks pretty damn good.

Good points, but I still think the combo of Simmons/Embiid will just be devastating as they mature. Fultz is going to be a very good player too, I'm looking foward to seeing what he can do after a full summer of training and good health. If by some miracle they do add Lebron as a free agent, this team is going to be downright scary next season.

- nastyflyergirl

Because Tatum wasn't viewed as the #1 pick on most boards if I remember correctly. What bothers me the most is I don't even think the 76ers brought Tatum in for an interview or workout. I still won't write Fultz off but man Tatum was displaying some killer instinct against us.

Landis Theater in Vineland NJ sounds about a good place. I've seen a Genesis tribute band there. It was fun even with them setting the fire alarm off with smoke machines.

- BiggE

Since I make the music choices for my business there is a never-ending series of playlists comprised of the music of Lynne, Harrison , Petty and Knopfler. The music lays the foundation for a healthy and productive work environment.

Ok quick poll. The Flyers can sign Tavares or Karlsson as a free agent. Which player would you prefer?

I want Tavares.

It will be a two hour show with full lights, video, sound.

Playing in rooms like Penn's Peak, Sellersville Theater, Kathedral, Scottish Rite,
etc.

I went to school with a few of those gentlemen. Great players.

Yes! I like the format they use of duplicating a specific show from a specific time period of the band. Its a neat idea.

Me too, saw them do one off of the Selling England By The Pound tour, it was an amazing show.
