Just watched episode of "The Standard", how can I get those 13 minutes back that were just stolen from me?

I didn’t think it was that bad….I mean it’s a step up from their actual play on the ice.

It does get a little silly when guys are wearing toque’s on the diamond under their ball caps.

I'm always hoping that a WS game gets snowed out! That would show em! Of course, in that regard hockey is just as bad. They should have already started the regular season(do they really need 6 preseason games?) and it should be over by Memorial Day like it used to be back in the 1980's. It's ridiculous to be playing hockey well into June when it's 100 degrees outside. FIRE CHUCK!

Ha ha, I wonder if anyone will show up for their playoff game? Oh, that's right. Now that they made the playoffs they'll fill the stadium and call themselves the best baseball fans in the league. Never mind that their stadium was half empty for most of the season. Bunch of frauds! You should fit right in with them though. Congrats!

One double header Sunday per month. Every team. That is what MLB SHOULD DO. But they would never turn down that extra revenue. They could cut at least a week off the end of the season.

Awwww, look at her. Your panties in a bunch yet again? I'm so sorry that Jimmy Rollins was right all those years ago when he said that Phillies fans were a bunch of frontrunners. But honestly, coming from you I take it as a compliment. Thanks!

I agree …training camp could start Labor Day….2-3 games then have season start by mid September….guys are skating long before camp starts anyways.

- MBFlyerfan

They could make the revenue up in other ways. How much are we talking about anyway if they reduced it by 10 games? Surely I bet players would be on board as well imo.

Nice try dude. I've been getting your panties in a bunch since you came on this site and you in fact started using that at me only recently. Good story bro! I'd love to stay, but that would keep me from going. FIRE CHUCK!

Yea, your weird obsession with claiming to know anything about an online posters sex life and birthmarks in very private spots are totally normal. 🤡

You engaged with me, Space Cadet. What were you expecting? You wanna talk about normal, go chase down Jeremy Roenick in a mall parking lot again, puck bunny.

Ugh, I saw the video of Hart getting run and it looked like a pretty hard collision from a stupid drill. As usual, one player checking another player into Hart. I will never get that.

Perhaps another blessing in disguise in our Tard For Bedard, our Silly for Fantilli, our kiss off for Michkov.

What could go wrong with your number one goalie not seeing any NHL competition before the regular season starts

I guess that is true in that they probably won't win a cup any time soon.
- MBFlyerfan


Probably not, but they can at least hang their hat on some positive progress.

Flyers are completely lost in the woods, to borrow a Bryzism.

It's the overdramatic music and the Bill Clement gravitas... gives the feeling they're depicting something of consequence or some organizational sea change... instead of just showing a bunch of scrubs doing media day, shagging balls and the coaching staff rambling.

My personal favorite part was the brain trust meeting in Ep 2, lol. Watching a bunch of shell shocked bosses offer Lyksell and the Cates bros as the silver lining despite everything that has gone wrong lol.

Time to see what Felix and/or Ersson can do. No issue with how Chuck handled the goaltending; though imo it wasn't by design. He screwed himself as he had no money to get one.

Bill,

Understanding that injuries are part of the the NHL, do the Flyers have much more by comparison to other teams? If so (as it appears) is there anything brewing you can talk about concerning a complete revamping of the training and medical staff for the Flyers?
