The Nets asking price right now is absurd. Simmons and 3 players for an expiring contract.

Imagine if the Flyers tried to do that for G

The NBA has really self terminated the last 5 years, I used to watch all the time back in the early 2010s but have watched next to none in the past few years

Simmons is a worthless punk. His performance in the playoffs last year was a disgrace. He doesn't like the criticism so he takes his ball and goes home. The fact this steaming pile of poop is getting paid not to play is disgusting.

his mental health issues will evaporate as soon as he is traded. Shame he is such a puss box.

The fact he's claiming mental health issues as to why he can't play is a farce, and a slap in the face to those folks who do battle with that every day of their lives. Simmons is the most gutless athlete I've ever seen.

Imagine being in your prime as a star in a league and sitting out because your coach said something not flattering about you? It’s absolutely absurd.

He's also terrified of the reaction he will get from fans. He's nothing more than a punk.

Habs fire Duscharme. Not 2 Coaches in 1 season but technically two coaches fired in one calendar year. Julien was fired end of February 2021

100% correct. NBA is spineless

Thank God they sent York and Frost down so those kids Yandle, Brassard and Seeler can suit up.

I never thought I would reach this level of disgust with a team that I have adored since I was a kid.

It’s truly getting hard to give a damn anymore.

Am I the only one approving of this? Seeler and yandle is tank city. This season needs to be flushed out

I wouldn’t mind it as much if both were getting top line/top pair usage in LHV and both were on pp1.

But Lappy is just another organEYEzational stooge obsessed with grit and 2 way play over all.

As I’ve said before, the entire hockey operation needs to be burned to the ground and completely rebuilt.

This team is a dumpster fire

He isn't getting paid though.

So
No Frost, no York but we get more Seeler, Bunny, Zach, Yandsie and Brassard. Why the (frank) should we bother to tune in, Dave? Why should anyone spend one (frank)ing dollar to buy a ticket? Well, Dave??

He isn't getting paid though.
- StepfordSam

I just assumed he was. Good, glad he's losing millions of dollars.

Perfect. Now we know why he was hired.

I have no issues with this. I do however have issue with these guys not getting PP time for the Phantoms. I dont think at this point there should be a need to have to prove yourself. Moves like this seem to make it clear as why our prospects dont develop

It fits with how the organization currently views themselves. One to two pieces away.

Savy GM's from other teams are licking their chops right now.
- StepfordSam

Exactly. Scott and company haven't figured out what the difference is between being desperate to make moves and making the best moves you can find and being smart and making the right moves at the right time. Other teams smell blood in the water.

Can the Flyers just please lose every game the rest of this season and every game next season to Up our odds on getting Wright in 22' - Michkov, Bedard in 23'

Hopefully the media will ask the tough questions if the Flyers start another losing streak after winning their last two games but then sending down their two best prospects.

Why is Frost not playing ahead of others on the top pp w the phantoms?

Just why is that?

Ya think maybe just maybe there is a problem there?

If Yeo is dressing the best lineup to win and Frost does not make the list, isn’t that telling?

You mean to tell me Frost does not give you a better chance to win now then the current bottom six?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say there are issues w Frost that the org just are not too crazy about right now and maybe they think he needs a kick in the ars.
- Joe Nardone

Does York need that arse kicking, too?

He's been replaced by Nick Seeler who has zero points in 27 games.

Lol, yeah... as a first official statement, that's (frank)ing embarassing.

100%

Assuming Simmons ever plays a game in Philly again as a member of another team I will be there front and center booing him.

That’s assuming he doesn’t wimp out and fake another injury any time he has to come here, because that’s totally the type of guy he’s shown to be.

Lol, yeah... as a first official statement, that's (frank)ing embarassing.
- Tomahawk

You really expect Briere, a guy just starting a new position to say yes this team sucks? Do people not just understand PR speak?

Lol, yeah... as a first official statement, that's (frank)ing embarassing.
- Tomahawk

It’s even funnier because they haven’t been a legit contender since he left.

And you don't think they are better on paper than they show on the ice right now? Isn't that the point of all the female doging and complaining on this site? We all know they are better than they are playing, he's stating the obvious.
