The thing about wearing the colors at home is that you only get the whites for every other team, and that's kinda dull.

Re: Guerin, Craig Custance reported that Guerin's just skating, and his agent thinks he'll get a contract done before having to do a tryout. Of course, that could mean getting a contract with the Flyers. I like it. We need scoring on the wing, particularly after giving away Gagne. Broad Street Hockey breaks down the pros and cons.
I say he's got more pop, and consistency, than the fourth line, and could easily skate on a productive, yet defensively aware third, or spot on the top couple lines. Giroux feeding him would be awesome.

eh. a guerin signing doesn't bring much in my eyes. the flyers are good at getting these older type guys after they are productive (coffee, hawerchuck, the beezer, amonte, etc)

I miss the home whites and especially the road orange. the old orange flyers road jerseys are my favorite philly unis of all time

84-97....no reason for them to have altered those even a little bit.

one of the things i hate about sports these days is the constant need to change jerseys or have alternate jerseys.

Jody Shelley digs Pearl Jam! (And some other unfortunate choices). This almost justifies a 3-year, $3.3 million contract!

Their ticket office won't leave me alone.

Hockey tickets are too damned expensive. For 2 lower level seats to a regular season game it costs you $150+. I'm willing to pay more for playoff tix (like I did for the cup game I attended last year), but the regular season prices are ridiculous.

nice work. you must go with the same philosophy as me...it's always easier to ask for forgiveness than it is it ask for permission.

i was watching last night on youtube. crazy ass game. there were like three rounds of fights. goalies got into it. it was awesome. Brashear was such a goon. I miss him. i guess havlett slashed somebody pretty good the last time the two teams played. Eddie Shore would have been proud
