Yeah that Vancouver game felt like deja vu but yesterday was much better.

Vigneault doesn't bother pulling goalie with a power play, team in the offensive zone, down 2, until the last 10 seconds, 4 minutes left. Do they even want to get points?Spectrum 10/27/09; New Orleans JazzFest 5/1/10; Made in America 9/2/12; Phila, PA 10/21/13; Phila, PA 10/22/13; Baltimore Arena 10/27/13; Phila, PA 4/28/16; Phila, PA 4/29/16; Fenway Park 8/7/16; Fenway Park 9/2/18; Asbury Park 9/18/21; Camden 9/14/22; Las Vegas 5/16/24; Las Vegas 5/18/24; Phila, PA 9/7/24; Phila, PA 9/9/24; Baltimore Arena 9/12/24; Pittsburgh 5/16/25; Pittsburgh 5/18/25

so another coach gets fired while an average team and a captain who hasn't won shit stays around. at what point does the franchise realize the talent level is just average so expecting more than average results doesn't make any sense? Not one of their players is in the top 25% at their position in the league. how do they have high expectations with such average talent?0

So full disclosure - not much of a hockey fan, but of course unabashedly fucking love Philadelphia and its sportz teamzzz. This team sucks right, and looking back it are like worse than more in disarray than the Phillies or Sixers right? Flyers fans, and I'm not talking Philly sports fans - I'm talking the ones that are first and foremost Flyers fans - deserve a better team and need to boycott or something. Like they are more on the carousel of terribleness than any other team in this city. One playoff series win in a decade right? I never understood a team that hasn't won a championship in nearly 40 years get so much respect.0

Yeah, seemed overblown. Not sure if it was deserving of removing the statue, but other than that I didn't care either way as I feel the whole God Bless America thing got tired and overplayed haha.0

I remember the incredibly gritty 86-87 team almost took down the Oilers and the day we landed Lindros and now I'm about halfway through my life expectancy and this franchise is completely moribund and there are 32 teams and there is a distinct possibility they will never win a Stanley Cup in my entire lifetime. At one point this team had the 2nd highest regular season winning percentage in the league. When they went to the 97 Finals that 10-year gap was the longest in team history. It's so damn depressing.

Like I get the point of just getting into the playoffs and roll the dice, but like the arguments and issues made above seem to always be the issue. The GM, the coach, the contracts. As soon as it seems promising again it seems like they put themselves right back into the very same hole they just dug out of. Seemed like the only thing that sorta saved them pre-salary cap was Snyder coming in and waving his wand of power - which ironically, fucked things up at the same time but nonetheless that kind of power pre-cap was able to work in the short-term.
Just seems like since the cap was implemented they've not been able to make any sound decisions on an organizational level that does anything well in laying out a solid blueprint.0 -
