    who fires a coach 3 games into a season?


    shocking.
    shame its always the coach thats first to go
    when a team doesnt perform up to expectations.

    I thought Laviolette was a good / decent coach.
    He will find work again soon.

    Craig Berube. Wow.
    For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

    Anyone who doesnt believe that Ed, 'Mr." Snider is running the whole show, watch that PC again.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    While I am not a fan of this firing i do believe that Lavi should have been fired along with homer. the reason I am not a fan is because this should have been done in on the off season.

    this team needs structure

    Sielski: “The fact that you guys haven’t won a Cup in 38 years, why bring in somebody that is sort of steeped in that culture?”

    Snider: “What’s the culture?”

    Sielski: “The culture that hasn’t won a championship in four decades.”

    Snider: “We haven’t won a championship, but we’ve been in the Stanley Cup Finals a lot of times and the playoffs a lot of times and the culture is to win. 30 teams are trying to win the Cup. And we’re doing our damndest to do it. That’s our culture. THAT’S OUR CULTURE!”

    Sielski: “A fresh perspective…”

    Snider: “No, we don’t need a fresh perspective. We have a pretty good culture and we know who we’re dealing with.”

    Ugly, 2 fluke goals, but I guess they'll take it.

    Team still looks completely lost and void of talent.

    This is a bad team with zero confidence.

    The only person playing well is Steve Mason.

    Hartnell is not a first line player and now he and Lecavalier are out for a week with some kind of injuries.

    C. Giroux still has 0 points thru 5 games.

    watching the game yesterday, you just had a feeling that they were going to lose. there is no back checking happening at all from the forward. Steve Mason played very well but no one else is showing up.

    also why the hell is homer telling people that pronger will never play again. he just seems to be losing it.

    I'm just turning the game off after we score our second goal because I know that 3rd goal isn't coming.

    only the Flyers would demote their leading goal scorer and a guy who has scored 23% of their goals so far this season :fp:

    http://nbcphiladelphia.csnphilly.com/ho ... tpar=csnph

    miss jeff carter's 30 goals per season yet?

    so is Claude Giroux the most overpaid and most overrated athlete in philly (or elsewhere) these days? Zero goals in 11 games. the goalie for the Phoenix Coyotes has more goals than him.

    Is this a salary dump?

    Kind of. Takes all the remaining years off Talbots contract.
    Downie is a UFA next year.

    Nothing to not like about this trade.

    Downie is now the leading scorer on this team. Gives us a winger.
