Voracek is on pace to score 4 goals this year.

That's not tearing it up and is obviously not impressive.

He is a minus -4 despite his 18 assists.

He had to go. Been here too long. Complacent. Sometimes a change of scenery is needed to light a fire under a players butt. He needed to be moved out. His game was flawed and did not justify his 8.25 cap hit.

This is now the 3rd year in a row that he is on a pace to fall way short of the 20 goal mark. That is weak for a 8.25 cap hit.

Gostisbehere and Voracek are tearing it up. Those moves seemed to have backfired on the team especially in light of the poor performance of Yandle and Ristolainen.


LOTS of interesting Flyers talk today.

Wait, they said the poor performance of Ristolainen? Can't be. Does it matter? Bobby Orr may not be able to help this team.

That's true. We don't keep any flawed players.

I liked ghost, his offense is off the charts. Just need to use him properly. He wasnt working here. If chuck knew the players were gonna quit on AV, then im sure he wouldve done things differently.
- bradster


Just more evidence he has no idea what he’s doing, and there’s no honest conversations going on in that building

(frank)ing g presser last night win 1 game then 2 then 3 then on roll and don’t have to try. (frank) out of here. You (frank)s can’t win a period let alone a game let alone get rolling. Point was coming from captain I never want to hear won’t have to try. That’s bs. When you get rolling mr fake captain news for you that’s when you push harder you (frank) to keep it going. That’s how you win championships

Thats just being negative talk. We know exactly how those players are, we had them for years....OR it was AV that made all their mistakes happen

The Flyers are missing that one goal Vorecek has scored.

National hockey reporters quote tweeting the dog poopting on the Flyers logo.
They are a literal punchline.

I don't find that interesting because we all know that were they still here they wouldn't be "tearing it up."

They could go full "screw it" mode: Put back Kate Smith's statue and hire Quenneville.

In regards to those rehashing the Ghost and V trades, I will go on record here, saying Ghost will never have an impact in the NHL playoffs. Once the physicality picks up, he's done.

Doesn't Quenneville need approval from Bettman to return to the NHL?
