Buff is a big man as well, sometimes you get lucky.

He came back and played in that game. I find it hard to believe that he passed concussion protocol.

I tried to google it but everything comes up Ed Snider. Who is the current owner of the Philadelphia Flyers? Is it the entire Snyder family or did it fall to a son?

Thank you!

I wanted to make a point of inexperience that I might not be able to make now. Maybe I never could but I had an interesting thought.

Ivan Provorov, Travis Konecny, Nolan Patrick, developing players. Dave Hakstol, developing NHL coach. Ron Hextall, first time General Manager. If Ed Snider left his family the team, more inexperience.

Am I sensing the wrong pattern?

I've had the concern that there was too little experience behind the bench going back to Berube. Right now 2 of the 4 coaches are in their first professional league job. Lap is in his first bench job. Don't know if that has contributed to their play but it seems like a lot of inexperience for this level.

Valid point.

Just because a defenseman gets the puck at the point are they obligated to shoot it? They have the option to get the puck down low again as well. I have 2 specific issues with what I have been seeing:

1) They are taking way more shots from the point when there is no shooting lane available then they should be.

2) Many times this year the forwards have been forcing passes back to the point through multiple opponents along the boards, which puts defensemen in a very tough spot and has led to blocked shots and odd man rushes the other way.

If you have the shot, take it no matter on the ice, but there has been very little attempt from forwards to get the puck inside, where other teams have been destroying the Flyers all year.

Thank you! I think the Fletcher hire is a godsend, even if he knows nothing about the Flyers. I’m done with inexperience, especially behind the bench. At least Hextall had a plan and I would have given him another year, I’m kind of thankful for a GM who is likely to be active. Our bottom six sucks! It doesn’t matter if JvR is apart of it, he shouldn’t be.

Undeniable proof that the Flyers employ a shoot from the point perimeter system at 5 on 5.

When you see others talking together, do you always assume they are saying bad things about you?

no, but when he watches football he knows they are talking about him in the huddle...

Shockingly this is true. Who knew that moderately useful NHL player was lurking behind that horse faced mask of chronic indifference?
