I love Jonesy. I think Jonesy has put Mike Milbury in his place a couple times when wrongfully assessing the Flyers in the passed. I think one year he was talking down Steve Mason who was actually playing well at the time. Plus Jonesy is pretty funny.

He can be both droll and entertaining. On the other hand, he has just been a company guy more recently. I find his coverage of the games these days to be entirely aligned with the narrative coming out of our management office. I just don’t find him to be that straight up about the games anymore.

Well the power play is in mid season form at least. Good thing they ran heavy on the conditioning skates so now the suck longer without getting tired.

ESPN+ shows maybe 25-30% of the Flyers, if that. Maybe 6-8 games on TNT and rest are NBCSP+ which is comcast locked.

EDIT: I just want to pay $150-200 a year for all game AGAIN!

You get them all using what? ESPN+? I'm not worried about blackouts using a VPN.

Ok let me turn it on to see. Thanks.

Edit: Sure enough it was on there.

Did you get all games through ESPN+ last year?

And last year got to chose home or away feed. Assume that will be the same during regular season.

I had it last year and there were a lot of games (specifically TNT and NBCSP+) that didn't even have a listing for the game.

This is a play-the-kids lineup if Farabee misses the opener.

Your complaining is in mid season form.

Ok, yes TNT games were probably not on but I didn’t notice because I’d rather watch TNT anyway. Not sure why NBCSP+ wouldn’t.

Hopefully the walking in mud start, was because of the Tortorella extreme skating without a puck regime.
