    4 in a row....despite all of these fucking injuries.

    I stand alone without beliefs

    This shit is unreal

    INJURY UPDATE: Flyers GM Paul Holmgren announced that Kimmo Timonen has an undisclosed injury and will not return to tonight's game

    Watched the Phils tonight, but an injury is expected at this point. Unbelievable. Hope it's nothing major

    It;s crazy!

    This team is fielding an AHL level defense, multiple injuries up front, and they are 2 pts behind the Isles for the 8th seed with 11 games to play.

    just focus on the top 7 picks and handicap the top of the draft and you will feel better.


    MacKinnon
    Drouin
    Jones
    Barkov
    Nichushkin
    Lindholm
    Monahan

    Barring a huge collapse over the last 9 games, this team has played themselves out of the Big Top 3.
    I figure they will settle somewhere in the 7-10 slot.

    1-7 is the place to be.
    1-3 specifically, but 4-7 look like a decent tier as well.

    8 if you like Darnell Nurse who cracks the top 7 on some lists. I saw him play a few times this season for Soo Saint Marie. Very big, but didnt really appear to me as a top 10 talent. Scouts know more than me though, of course.

    They can drop Bryz, but things aren't going to get better until the D is addressed. Put a 4x6 brick wall in front of the net and w/ the D hanging it out to dry, like try did to Bryz so many times, pucks are still going to be given up

    I can see the Flyers drafting Monahan somewhere in the 6-7 slot. They always go for best player still on the board.
    Plus he is a big Center.. and Canadian.

    Flyers cannot develop Defense worth a crap. Always impatient.

    I'll bring this up: It's absolutely sickening that Bob is on his way for Vezina contention behind the Columbus Blue Jackets.

    It speaks volumes about this organization: Ed Snider, Holmgren and Clarke.
    Also guilty are the Fans themselves and the awful Philly media. There is NO patience with the youth.. and this is what happens.

    They just do not let Goalies or young D-men develop over time..which needs to happen in those positions.

    i thought Bob was a solid goalie. but nobody wanted to hear that.

    What did we get for Bob and what was the rationale for trading him? Couldn't he have been Bryz's backup rather than some aging, half qualified goalies?
    Alright, alright, alright!

    The reasoning was that Bryz was going to be the big-money starting goalie, and therefore Bob wasnt going to get the playing time to help develop his skill behind him.

    Flyers dealt him to CLB for a 2nd and 4th Rounder last year and another 4th Rder this year.

    Bobrovsky was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Columbus' second-round and a fourth-round picks in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft and Phoenix's fourth-round pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft.[7]

    2nd round pick (45th overall) Anthony Stolarz (G)
    4th round pick (177th overall) Taylor Leier (LW)

    ECHL?

    i'm not seeing that :?:

    either way....still a long ways to go to see if he is even NHL material.

    i'd rather have Bob and some Defense man vs. iyla and the crap contract.
    but then again, we might still have carter and richards if they didn't go after iyla.


    it is what it is at this point.

    saw on twitter today, homer is generally happy with the roster and has no plans on blowing it up this summer

    London's a machine though regardless of goaltender.

    Thanks. My son still has an autographed Bob pic from the carnival on his wall. I wonder when he'll notice that Bob isn't on the team anymore. :lol: Funny thing about the pic is that Simmer is in it wearing a Kings jersey.

    True, he still is at least 4 years away if he keeps developing.
    Then again the Flyers would prob throw him out there next year.

    so... does this team have any shot at the playoffs?

    looks like they're closer to dead last in the conference than the 8th seed... :?
