    You gotta remember that these players are still pretty young. Schenn still only has about a full year under his belt.
    Voracek is another story, but the whole team is struggling.
    Giroux looks like he never played a game before in his life.

    This is how bad it is right now: T. McGinn, a call up from a couple weeks ago, is now on the top scoring line.

    Will be interesting to see how many games Erskine gets for his elbow on Simmonds last night.

    Amazing how much hartnell being out has hurt giroux. That hairy bastard really helps create space on the ice.

    Never thought I'd say that the flyers 'miss' hartnell.

    Voracek really sucks.

    Simmonds hurts being out, but he has hands of stone. Some of the worst stickhandling I've ever seen from an NHL player. He does have a nice commanding physical presence.

    I didn't see last night's game. I thought Luke Schenn had looked good, but sounds like he didn't have a good game vs. the Caps...

    I hear ya.

    Funny thing is, they finally get Bryz playing well and then the whole team shits the bed or is hurt. I dont think these guys will all be healthy at the same time ever.
    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.

    They got some decent chances last night, just can't finish. You know youre in trouble when matt read is your second best forward.

    Still real early though. They just need to get healthy

    Last night was his worst game by far. He has played really well prior to that effort. Like I said tho, the whole team has sucked.

    i see they went 3-3 on PP and had 5 different scorers.

    that doesnt happen often .

    Really? You haven't been paying enough attention.

    gotta love guys from ontario and halifax having an argument in a philly sports thread :D - welcome although we usually do mighty fine arguing amongst ourselves. ;)
    Always a good time!

    seriously. this troll was absent last year with the carter nonsense. now he chirps after 2 weeks.

    :roll:

    you must have forgotten my posts during the Stanley Cup finals when Carter was scoring 2 game winners and raising the cup with Richards. ;)

    in all seriousness those trades have not worked out for the Flyers so far. It's really all depends on how far Schenn can progress. Simmonds and Voracek are what they are.

    id rather throw an orange cone on the ice than have carter out there... guy does the best disappearing act during the playoffs, maybe im still mad about stanley cup flyers hawks game 6 with 1:31 left in the 3rd

    2 game winning goals in the stanley cup finals last year would seem to render that argument incorrect ;)

    I will never forgive him for not elevating that puck over Niemi in Game 6. What a dick.

    wasn't a good moment no doubt. i tend to blame the ridiculous piss poor goaltending for that loss though. ahole leighton still doesn't know where the game winner is. and the next night he was yucking it up the phillies game...that always pissed me off about leighton...well that and he totally sucks. so glad he is back :fp:

    Very true. It's really sad. If this team would have gotten just average goaltending against the Hawks that series, they would have been Stanley Cup champions.

    There is no doubt about that.
