Les Flyers nous ont tous choqués, ont participé aux séries éliminatoires et ont même remporté une série éliminatoire. Mais maintenant, ils doivent s’appuyer sur cela. Jon Marks et Mike Vito donnent un aperçu de la saison morte des Flyers et expliquent pourquoi ils ne peuvent pas rester les bras croisés. (Photo de Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)

An offer sheet is so desperate
This team did not take their time with a rebuild
We keep being held in comparison of youth to Buffalo and Anaheim and Montreal
But the difference is that these teams have players on offense and defense that can dynamically impact the game in those areas and they have three or four players each on the team
We walked away from a rebuild with just Martone and Mitchkov
We weren’t supposed to be here this year. The offer sheet things depends upon the salary too.
You’re either going to offer up 2 to 4 first round picks
What if this was lightning in a bottle in those four first round picks or top five or top 10 pics or even worse top say two or three pics?
Stand Pat draft and develop with the cap going up, there is going to be an impetus on drafting and developing
This franchise always wants to make a trade or sign a free agent when other teams constantly win by building through the draft
Commentator forget about Risto
They’ll resign zegras and drysdale. Extend vladar. And carefully listen for offers for Risto….And in a wild scenerio, michkov as well.
Other than that, you expect to get better with the young players taking the next step.
FIRE TACO 🌮 The CLOWN 🤡 For BENCHING Michkov 3 Times… FIRE DANNY & JONESY For ALLOWING It To Happen
The only play is Matthews. I’m good giving up a first and Michkov for AM. AM has like 6 years left. Can find another Michkov within that span. Matthews fills 3 holes next season
Danny is gonna be tricked by this years results and keep guys around, that he shouldnt.
Need a player or two that have a shoot first mentality. Too many playmaker that keep making one too many passes
Make a move for Fantilli (sp)
Get Brady Tkachuk
Pretty much every team is in the same boat 🚤, they are better off staying with the young core and picking up a few lower priced vets
It turns out there's more to hockey than needing to beat the Ducks twice a year.
They are going to be in bubble to get to playoff.
Reason florida will be In if healthy.
And we finished last playoff spot
Defense win championship
I don't have any optimism because I've seen this story play out before time and time again. Flyers will look good one year and they'll fool you into believing that they can make a serious run next season only to either miss the playoffs or be one and done in round 1. I'm sure no one wants to hear the truth at this time. It is what it is. This Flyers team couldn't even find a way to win one game against the Hurricanes. Even if the Hurricanes are the team to win the Stanley Cup this season I think it's embarrassing how both the Flyers and Senators went out. Anyone a fan of either team should question everything. I can understand if the Hurricanes just have more talent, but for them to be able to clown both franchises shows you that there's still a lot of issues going on for both Flyers and Senators.
1 center and 2 defensemen under 25 years old and not undersize with speed , not easy to find but not impossible
And I dont touch Martone, Tippett, Foerster and Zegras
McDavid isn’t coming to Philadelphia Matthews isn’t coming to Philadelphia. Robert Thomas isn’t coming to Philadelphia all these channels do the same crap every single season none of these people are coming to Philadelphia. Stop. Just stop.
Last year, all you people couldn’t stop talking about michkov “this kid is great” and all that crap. But now all you same people are like “we gotta trade him” he had one bad year… you guys have put way to much pressure on this kid to be great… and that’s a problem because if he does get traded, he’s gonna be great wherever he goes because there isn’t any pressure on him…Mackinnon didn’t score more than 20-25 goals for like 4-5 seasons… my point is this kid isn’t gonna automatically be great not everybody is a Macklin Celebrini… if all this pressure continues, it won’t make him sign again and then wherever he goes, he will be great and all the blame will be on all of you
Even the worst teams in the entire NHL have better Power Plays than the Flyers for the last several years. Cannot win consistently when no opponent worries about it.
Why do any thing. We have a lot of young players in the minors. ??
If available they have to add a Pronger level defensemen. They need that veteran defensemen who has five years left and can still bang people around. They also need an enforcer, a face off man, and someone with a great accurate slap shot. They are so close to being a playoff force.
A centre like Matty Beniers will be a great fit.
“The right time “ is a cop out go get our guy Mathews or McDavid or any other superstar we can snag how the heck do you know when it’s the right time when you get swept in the playoffs a couple years in a row would consider being the right time ? The time is NOW !!
Find a home for Andre and York if you can move Konecky then let Bonk , Janacek Lubchenco then add a free agent guy up front not Mathews and go from there as a York Konecky will bring you back a skilled forward struggling somewhere that needs a restart
Ned at the point on PP?
I am concerned about the idea of an offer sheet to a restricted free agent like Fantelli. He would be a great fit, but when Homer did the Offer Sheet to Shea Weber Homer was Blackballed by General Managers around the NHL. People end up not only not wanting to do business with you, inturn kills your organization in making deals in the future. It is a destructive move that burns bridges. Homer stepped down as GM of the Flyers two years later!
You don't knock out Crosby and Malkin, and then ot every other game with Car(without Tippett)& make 'big' changes!….Flyers are 'very close' right now, a tweak here or there, I wouldn't give up too much youth for those big names.
They need to be top 15 power play and Vladar needs to repeat this year.
Danny please stay away from this softy, i watch him would love to play against him not with him, Flyers need leader not losers!!!
No more of this sling shot strat on power play, passing it back to a player to skate fast into the zone… it's dumb, it wastes time and it doesn't work! Come up with a better way, just dump the damn puck in and go get it
The Flyers only have $7M in cap space-they can’t sign anyone worthwhile.
Flyers PP has been at or near the bottom of the league for years and they have been talking about fixing it for years and it never happens. At this point I don't know what the answer is – it's beyond me how it remains so bad year after year.
Hell yes extend Vladar. Is Michkov ever going to be as great as we thought ? Dallas sucks
Philadelphia needs to add and still subtract from this roster. This lineup doesn't scare anyone they need #1 center defense and goalie. They need character players meaning dog mentality players who go into the corners and come out with the puck. Right now Philadelphia doesn't have any of those type of player .
Typical Flyers media…cant even proofread their thumbnails…
NO to Matthews. Doesn’t fit our time line, injuries, not a proven winner. Hard pass for me.
Flyers need bigger faster forwards & centerman. They looked small & sliw compared to the Canes
No
