They should let a fan coach a few games through a contest.

I think ownership would be fine with this as long as the arena was full and people bought jerseys.

No, it’s not a ridiculous expectation under normal circumstances. However if the guy had back spasms earlier in the day and is less than a year removed from major surgery, you err on the side of caution.

You say that but I GUARANTEE had he done that and started Lyon, the board would be crying they didnt start Stolarz because this is a win they needed

This is all so frustrating.

Their is enough talent on this team that they shouldn't be this bad. Goaltending is killing them.

What's worse, the current Flyers team or the prequals? Episode III is on right now and I honestly can't decide.

Natalie Portman might have the edge.

I'd just keep my arms crossed with a scowl and pace around...

I will say this. I would watch the prequels, and ONLY the prequels for the rest of my life rather than ever have to sit through The Last Jedi ever again.

The Last Jedi was really disappointing. And I loved Force Awakens.

Hayden Christianson's acting might be the only thing worse than our goaltending situation.

I'm probably about your age, maybe a little older and I have to say the exact same thing. Sucks.
- hereticpride

Honestly, it wasn’t this bad during the wasteland that was 1990-94. At least you knew after what they gave up for Lindros in 92, that the team was likely going to take a step back before moving forward.

This is just a dumpster inferno right now. Players have quit on the coach, and on their teammates. A new coaching staff is a must, but I really hope, and honestly expect, that a lot of these players are gone before the start of the next season.

This season has been an utter disgrace. My earliest memories of the Flyers go back to the team that missed the playoffs on a fluke goal during the last game of the season in 1972. Never, not then, not when they were embarrassed by Shero’s Rags in 79, the 3 straight 1st round debacles in the early 80s, the 5 straight years of missing the playoffs, the Lindros/Clarke mess, the 98-02 coaching carousel, the 06-07 horror show; never have I felt this disgusted with the Philadelphia Flyers.

For the first time in my life, I’m embarrassed to be a fan of this team. They are just breaking my heart.

- xShoot4WarAmpsx


If they started Lyon because they publicly stated that Stolarz had back spasms earlier in the day? Can’t speak for anyone else, but I would have agreed with that decision 100%

Rogue one is really the only one I liked out of the new movies.

That ending Vader scene.

Definitely the best of the new ones by far. Although I still haven't seen Solo yet.

Solo was actually a very good movie. And they showed the Kessel Run.
