No discipline for Gudas- iffy play..sure he was involved with another player but Gudas did not charge him in any manor and glided into the hit. That call was a joke. Does Gudas need to play smarter? Absolutely.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.
no reason in hell to light him up with the score and time being like they were. I dont think I have seen anything like that in 30+ years of watching hockey. Also, him high-fiving fans on the way to the lockerroom was classy.
It sounds like Hakstol isnt too happy and has hinted toward 'lineup changes'.
I dont thnk that list is in any particular order. If I was to guess who we will see on the big club next year,it will prob be Provorov and Konecny. Carchidi didnt even ask about the D- man Myers, who is shooting up a lot of prospect lists for the Flyers. Hextall may have found gold with him. Another huge kid, like Morin, he may even be better down the road. The kid that intrigues me the most besides Prov and Koneckny is Aube-Kubel. Seems like theres a chance he turns into a top 6 forward in a couple of years. Future seems to be bright.

saw that. still not one of those guys is as good as Carter was here (look up those goal totals) or has been for the past 5 years and we are looking at another non-playoff season so...
edit: what people overlook is that in the 2 years before the Carter and Richards trade the franchise made a Stanley Cup final and then finished 2nd in the Conference in the next regular season. they haven't achieved either of those since. the franchise took a dive since those trades.

The bottom line is that those trades were made to free up cap space for what they thought was a franchise goalie like Quick who was the real reason the Kings won cups. That blew up in their face which makes those other trades look worse when they actually were pretty good. Let's not forget that Carter sat out with an "injury" in Columbus because he was butthurt over being traded and basically forced them to deal him again.
Alright, alright, alright!

just like ryan howard...you look at carters goal totals to tell the entire story, which is great if you want to be completely incorrect.
you need to learn from your mistakes. you would think after years of being wrong about everything you would come around. smh
flyers return for carter is one of the best trades in franchise history. yet you still defend him. why?
also, the cup run was a fluke. flyers were a 7 seed. got in playoffs in a shootout (ironic) in last game of season. richards knocked out the best boston player in round 2 (because he was a beast)...then got the 8 seeded canadiens in the ECF. haha
coming out of those cup finals they were not build for success after they gave carter and richards long term deals. their returns on those trades were overwhelmingly successful. the struggles that the franchise has experienced are not related to those trades. since the cap was implemented, the flyers failed to adapt more than any other team (mainly because they used to outspend everyone for their talent). they gave awful contracts to lecavalier, macdonald, hartnell -- replaced by umbergers contract which was a great move, bryzgalov, pronger -- obviously tainted by injury, etc.
flyers are in good hands. but to say they were close to a cup with carter is just flat out stupid.
sell, sell, sell...and lose out. let's get a top 5-7 pick to add to provorov, konecny, morin, sanheim, hagg, etc

Gudas sucks. Can't believe he gets as much ice time as he does.
