This is Tortorella in Vancouver levels of awful now. I'm watching for draft positioning now. There's no way this club is talented enough to even sniff at a playoff spot. But hey, the culture is good, right?
im beginning to think you can for a fact NOT win just by being "hard to play against #culture championd"Another game against an elite opponent and another beat down.
umm this is year 3 of their 3 year rebuild. what your seeing is basicly the finished product towards cup contention..This team can't obviously compete vs the best, why don't they accept this fact and start rebuilding? Because without new blood it'll be the same shit over and over again.
Don't know what culture they are going for but if it's a losing one they sure picked the right coachThis is Tortorella in Vancouver levels of awful now. I'm watching for draft positioning now.

wait!!! that cant be right..Fedoruk said on the radio that the Canes perfected the defensive side of the game by not being in the defensive zone.
Makes you wonder.
You know who said that?best defense is a good offense?

In other words, they hope to be competitive in 2027-28 (24, 25, 26 is three years).“It’s more than one year but less than four.” - Keith Jones in May of ‘23.
Go look at the bottom feeders of rhe leagues rosters. If the Flyers get anything close to decent goaltending. Which they might out their trio, they aren't a bottom 5 team. Especially with the brand of hockey they play.Flyers are a bad team. Every once in a while they’ll get a hot streak going where they bore the game down to unwatchable levels to get to overtime or the shootout. They still haven’t had their 10 game losing streak yet. I still bet they are picking in the top 5. It’s really for the best though

It's the Hextall rebuild without really rebuilding approach all over again. The only difference is that Hextall made better use of the few assets he did trade.There isn't a single schedule you can dream up as either contending now or rebuilding that makes a shred of sense in terms of what they've actually been doing.
Hurricanes 5on5 | Flyers | |||
Corsi: 81, Shots: 36, Expected Goals: 4.1 | Corsi: 27, Shots: 12, Expected Goals: 1.24 |
That was one of their best second periods of the season and they only managed 4 shots on net.
TK is clearly the only forward dressed that can play tight passing hockey with Michkov.
Most rebuilds take longer than 5 years, people want to tank, that would mean they wouldn't be competitive until 2030+, since you'd have to trade away a number of younger players and then replace them through the draft (not just land 1 or 2 in the top 5, but a number in the top 10 as well).So we are going to call it a 5 year rebuild every time a new GM is hired. Got it
