you don't understand. with the rangers, it's way more about their (frank)ing fans than the team. in fact, it's entirely about the fans except for csp and sather.

Forgive me for asking... what does CSP mean?

The boys are back in town... Actually they never left.
Wash, rinse, repeat. Snider still calling all the shots. People lapping it up like its genius... At least they finally found a (frank)ing goalie.

He gets it. New era in the sport. The Detroit way of doing business is a great way of doing business. Nothing is 100 percent set in stone, but maybe, just maybe, we're going to see these defensemen developed properly.

Hey, E. You still crawling Key West?

Yup, heading back north tomorrow though

you really hate lundqvist?
- stayinthefnnet

not as a person, of course. i hate the way he plays goal, and i think he's slightly overrated, and i hate his team. if he played on the blues or the coyotes, i wouldn't give a flying (frank).

Puhleeze ... It will be more knee jerk reactions and shortcuts to success.

Ah thanks. No, I hate the Rangers too. Especially tough for me since my Dad is a Rangers fan (with a goddamn 94 Cup poster in his office), but got me into the Flyers at the tender age of 3.

i loathe the rangers more than any other team - and again - it's far more about the fans than the team itself.

Joe im going to reserve judgement and see what he will actually do. Hextall never struck me as a guy that would get pushed around. There were other teams clamoring to get him. I doubt he would have stayed if he wasnt going to have 100% complete autonomy.

not as a person, of course. i hate the way he plays goal, and i think he's slightly overrated, and i hate his team. if he played on the blues or the coyotes, i wouldn't give a flying (frank).

Man...it would be nice to finally not have to go trawling through other teams' rosters, begging for players because we can't develop our own.

If they can get even a few of these kids to reach their full potential with the Flyers...it'd be an amazing thing and could really make this franchise something to deal with, since they've already done some of the painful part by drafting them.

They're short on scoring wingers, but they truly do have defensive prospects and a goalie prospect, to boot.

You're really... confused if you think Snider is picking the players or the coaches.

this never gets old. god i miss so many things about hockey from back then.

not gonna lie, that would suck.

for you, yes. yes, it would.
