You seriously don't understand that you also do everything you just stated? Your delusion is incredible. Yeah. I complain about the refs. So does every fan. And I don't do it any more than you or anyone else on this board or any other freaking forum on this site.

Today and yesterday your whole board was saying how rigged the game was because the pens weren't getting any powerplays. I don't recall you saying something to the contrary, or telling your fellow fans they're wrong. But when a flyers fan does it they're wrong. Unreal

Chiasson seems to be thrown along as TDL option. an unequivocal no.

He’d be one of the worst limping in useless trades they could make.

I’ll repeat, Rutherford needs to go over the top or nothing at all... Carter/Martinez, Nyquist/Green, etc...

If they can get Montour or Manson from ANA, great, then also go get a Nyquist or even Panik.

IMO anything else is a waste of a time and assets.

Guys this is the Flyers Stanley Cup. A regular season win over the Penguins. When people talk more about your mascot than the actual team you know it's bad. It is nice that Flyer fans troll over here. I've missed them since they don't have much to talk about.

Rumors are picking up and saying JR and Anaheim within the past 24 hours have discussed what it would take for Montour to be a Penguin. I wonder if JR will do a package of a defensive prospect, Pearson and Jarry to keep our 1st untouched. I wouldn't mind getting Nyquist and Montour, but only if JR is going all in on a playoff push with (Letang coming back soon).

IMO this should be what the Pens should be willing to move for bringing in two players like that:

1st
Jarry
Hornqvist
Pearson
Addison
Riikola
Pettersson

That is not a sexy grouping of assets, but if JR can make it work to get those major pieces, then do it.

It's a tactic chronic liars do, even if they get caught in a lie they will deny, deny and deny even with ample evidence.

It’s Letang’s fault that Ghost takes him down violently with a wrestling move instead of trying to be a man and squaring up with him? Yeah, ok RW.

It's the pens fault for 2 guy's trying to attack Simmonds. Stop whining. Pens fans always whine about something but over the years employ some of the dirtiest players in the league and then whine about the "Broad Street Bullies" because they can't get out of the past.

I see it as just D. the team can persevere without additions up front. unless one of those guys from ANA is coming, may as well gun for the playoffs, try to win a round or two, a draft a non-impact guy in the bottom half of the 1st round. try again next year.

You look at what CBJ has done up front and if the Isles wind up getting Stone or Hoffman, the Pens need to add up front. Defense obviously has become a major issue now. Who knows though, maybe Letang winds up being day-to-day and Dumo could only wind up missing a few games.

Gudas is night and day a different player than a few years ago. He's had a very solid year play wise. there was a time ( most of last year) the majority of flyers fans wanted him gone.

Should be less than Malkin got for Wheeler since Dumo actually touched the puck and Simmonds didn't leave his feet prior to contact.

Still, sucks Dumo is concussed.

- jmatchett383


i don't expect any discipline b/c of the POC, but he definitely left one of his feet. the other is unclear.

Gudas isn't that bad, aside from 2 brain cramps (should have gotten 20+ for the Perrault chop). Now, Flyers like Steve Downie, Billy Tibbetts, Ulf Samuelsson, and Zac Rinaldo were scum on ice.

And I already admitted I may have been wrong back on page 2...which is why I said to give him the same discipline that Malkin got for the Wheeler hit, not less.

It's been largely a sideshow.

Overall, I thought that both the Simmonds hit and JJ knee were both accidental and both were worthy of 2 minutes, personally. Just sucks about Dumo's head.
