Don't you have to intentionally break a rule to cheat? Did the player step out on purpose intentionally? The mistake is made by the official, not the player. The player had nothing to do with getting the favorable result. Not sure how you can consider that cheating.

Thank you.

The players have no prerogative to do the the official's job for them.

Not cheating.

Congrats to the Eagles! I think they have a real shot this time. After watching KC and Cinncy last night, neither team looked that good.

poop! Eagles are jinxed now, for sure.

100%.

I know Dawkins is up there for a lot of people and obviously Kelce as far as all-time favorite Eagles go, but Johnson might be mine. Guy is quietly putting together a HOF resume and has played through a ton of adversity in his career. His value to this team is shown in the Eagles record with him and without him in the lineup.

He'll also always be a legend in my book for this as well:

Horvat to Isles Done. For Beauvilier, Raty, and a 1st.

27 and a new deal coming, Lou is Lou

Wait until Boston gets Hayes. The rest of the league might as well just quit.

IMO Torts deserves the Jack Adams this year and its not even close. Monty inherited a great team in Boston and Brind'more has been with a great team for a while now. But what Torts is doing with this roster plus the injuries plus the culture around the team starting this year, its really incredible the Flyers are even winning as much as they are. I don't think you need to do much coaching for the Bruins or Hurricanes to win, but coaching has been the biggest part of this year's Flyers team so far.

Can we stop prattling about any supplementary league awards for the time being? There's only one true NHL award and it's actually not an award, but a reward. And with the way this hapless franchise is currently set-up, it ain't gonna be rewarded with it for years to come.

It remains to be seen if Torts can be the coach to help get that reward, though. But I really have my doubts without a near-perfect roster.

Islanders cap situation is not great, curious to see how they make this work. Can’t imagine it’s just a rental? If it is a rental, woof

Nope. Everyone here wants more talent, how is Horvat not more talent? The two guys who got sent were a middling winger and a B prospect with a protected first. You're telling me Laughton and an unprotected first doesn't get it done?

Horvat gives a glimpse of what TK trade could get. I would assume a better quality prospect along with the 1st and a roster player because he is younger and under contract for 2 more years

I hope you're right. That would be a good trade for the flyers.

Very talented, but a team with Hayes and Couturier locked in long term can't trade for another 27+ yo C who's due a JT Miller contract. It's a cap impossibility.

There's a market for kevin hayes though! Maybe Risto has earned himself a market too.

The Flyers should have no business trading an unprotected first round pick.

Boston is taking Hayes and probably giving us a top pick.

Good news though. I learned today that Tortorella should win the Jack Adams award.

Fine give a half decent prospect and make it protected. Jay O brien worth anything? I have no clue on Flyer prospects. I just mean I think everyone thought vancouver would have gotten a better deal.

Yea, Flyers losing the WC arms race 🏁 early here. But i guess Chuck has a real good view from where he is sitting.

Still think the Flyers could have made it happen if they wanted to. I get why they might not but the cost was cheaper than 99% of people predicted it would be.

That bum hurts 120 yards pushing. 260 total yards. Yeah they crushed the best d. Laughable. The league showed how rigged they are. Expedited replay. Yes sf should’ve thrown challenge flag but that’s what expedited replay is for. Ny took all day to try to get video of ball hitting wire but on 4th and 3 they out to lunch. K. As soon as eagles hurried up field league should’ve called it in. That bum hurts less than 100 yards passing without that incomplete pass.

So a non flyers fan thinks they should trade for Horvat. Funny.
