I see a lot of people praising Hayes for his pass on Alison’s goal, I think Gs was significantly better

“ The Flyers had just 11 shots on goal at 5v5 today. Giroux was on for 7 of them. With Giroux off they managed 4.” from Broadstreet Hockey

But he isn’t a good captain and he’s not the same player.

Out of Laczynski, Lyon, Twarynski, Bunnaman. Allison is the only one who looks like he belongs.
- SuperSchennBros

Agree, Allison looks like a keeper, however the rest are more misses from Hextall!

At least they aren’t handing 5 year deals out to bottom six players.

Oh wait

How do you go from Stanley Cup favorites to the laughing stock of the league in 15 months? There needs to be an investigation!

When were we ever Stanley Cup favorites? I would love to see the websites you frequent.

Time to move on from Jake, G and JVR! Lets a get a few veterans with balls! Did you all see Chara today stay out there on one leg and still break up plays? That is why Washington will win this division and challenge for the cup! I wanted the Flyers to sign Chara in the off season, he would have easily filled the Niskanan hole, but No .. lets play Myers instead! Nice one Fletch!

Chara was NEVER coming to the Flyers. He signed with Washington because he wanted to play one last season for a team that was a legitimate Stanley Cup contender. That isn't the Flyers and never was.

Ummmm, last March before the shutdown. Oh, and they were the odds on favorite in Vegas following the round robin play last August, so I guess I was wrong. It was only 8 months ago that they were odds on favorites to win the Cup(not that I believed it cause I figured that those RR games were glorified exhibition games).

God, I'm so friggin depressed... Look at that list. I'm sorry, but I can't say Allison's a keeper yet. It's three games. He may be, we need him to be...but I remember lots of guys who were two week wonders. Think Al Hill!

Perhaps you should go back and check with Vegas last August at the beginning of the playoffs. Pretty sure they were the betting favorite, but I'm not sure enough to put serious cash on it.

The Flyers were one game away from the final 4 last year, so what are you talking about?

Yes, I'm concerned that Allison will be exposed to this crap culture and get infected, like other young players. We'll see how he does the rest of the season, I just hope first and foremost he stays healthy. The future of this team is TK, Farabee, York, Allison, Foerster and O'Brien to start with, we have to hope this future core works out for the Flyers.

I remember being stoked as af. I mean, I do not remember when that ever happened before that.

I guess we will always have those days to cherish. Who needs the cup?

I'm a true believer in "offense comes from defense". Im actually more worried about Sanheim, Myers,York, and well Provy is already pretty good. The forwards have been awful on the backcheck. They are constantly outworked in all three zones, but particularly in their own. I hope for the sake of all Flyers fans those young guys you mention they can truly contribute

Based on this season, the best #3D in the league.
