What's the consensus on the Nabokov penalty? Worst call of the year that worked out for the flyers right? These refs effin blow.

That was awful!

I guess the new trade deadline is a month before the actual one? Do GMs do this to avoid having to pay a premium for a player or was the Cammy thing cause he ran his mouth?

Knowing Montreal, it was definitely the latter.

I've seen worse by goaltenders, honestly. What irked me was the fact that the refs seem to have missed several blatant calls on the Flyers either after that high stick by Schenn on whatshisface or that dive.

so since the flyers retired #2 i wonder what # schenn in gonna wear

Isles get Effed at coliseum almost nightly. That was the fifth worst call or non call this year. Tough loss for isles and fans. Deserved better fate in my opinion

if they could get schenn and coloburne that would be a nice deal

Happens nightly. Don't like to blame officials but the isles at home the last two seasons get it up the ass nightly. It's bizarre

Also my Girlfriend got us tickets for the game in Philly on Thursday. Are we going to get beat up?

everyone's fine so long as they're not near someone insane (ly drunk) or in a similar state themselves. maybe point to yourself and start an ass-hole, ass-hole chant. that usually wins over a section.

Don't know too much about Luke Schenn, but god damn could the Flyers use his physical presence on the back end. Dude just destroys people in his videos on youtube!

Lol. I mean I'm tortured enough rooting for this team.

Not a fan of Talbots theatrics either tonight. Refs wait 20 seconds and don't blow whistle then as soon as isles have odd man rush they blow play dead? I knew he wasn't going to miss a shift.

he probably should have missed a shift. writers seem to be insinuating he didn't look right afterwards. not sure it was exactly theatrics. there's not really a good replay, but it's at least a head hit, if not an elbow.

yea I think you guys just need to keep stocking and developing your youth and in a season or two make some noise. Looks like Nabokov is helping you guys out. Would be awesome to have a division full of playoff teams. Oh wait they're blowing that up next year
Anyway Good luck, and don't worry about going to the game Isles and their fans don't really bother us like the ranger people. We know they flip flop between the Rangers and Devils when they're each good or bad so it adds fuel to the fire. Unless you run into a seriously chromosone deficient idiot i doubt you have any problems. Have fun.

Theatrics? Not sure if that's fair assessment.....

So here's the Flyers plans for the future.

1. Trade JvR to a team he'll more then likely not want to stay long term

2. Watch as he grows to be upset from a far

3. Then expect him to sign with the Rangers when his deal is up, so that he can make is miserable during his prime.

Perhaps not but he pulled that crap with the pens for years. Refs should have blown play dead immediately and not an hour later

If they acquire Luke Schenn and he becomes our franchise dman for the next decade playing here with his superstar brother.. will that matter?

Just sayin. lol

I'm not sold that Luke Schenn will be a franchise defenseman. I like the kid a ton, but I think he's going to be a tweener-capable of being a first pair guy, but more suited to being the second pair shut down guy...kind of like Coburn, but more physical and less mobile.
