2022/23 Roster Thread XVIII: The bats have left the bell tower

[bennysflyers16]

If we can flip some of those OT losses into wins we'd be right there!!

If only Torts would of went 3D in OT , we’d be in playoffs

wait til Jorts pulls the goalie and rolls out Sealer, He Who Stands Up For His Beliefs, TonyD(eranged), and Fisto (netfront)

 

[Starat327]

Not just tv speakers ??

I dont watch enough TV to do add in speakers, but if I did, they'd be wireless anyway

One player is the next Couts

One player is the seen as most disappointing player on the flyers.

Narratives are often comedy on hfboard land

So, Desnoyers up and TK on IR. But of course there is no update whatsoever from the Flyers on Konecny's status and/or the severity of his injury.

This franchise is a total clown show.

 

[mize370]

Desnoyers will get to play 5 minutes with deslauriers and brown and torts will think he sux

 

[Lindberg]

Brady is obviously the GOAT in football but you can't discount Belichick's success. Football is way different though in terms of hockey.

 

[ponder719]

Parcells is fair, but he also had Witten. I was young for that though so I'm not certain how Witten was marketed to their fanbase/in football

Parcells' first year was Witten's rookie year, and I can't imagine they were marketing a third round rookie as much of a superstar.

And one of them has spent all year being carried by our best player. The other spent time with Deslauriers and MacEwen.

 

[BobbyClarkeFan16]

Most NHL players don't fight the front office when they ask if they are willing to play at less than 100%. It's part of the stupidity of the hockey culture. If they think they have a chance to play they will.

Never have I witnessed a sport where ownership doesn't treat their players like investments, but treat them as if they're animals. I'll never understand how a business that spends millions of dollars on players treats them in this manner.

Why stop there? Pull the goalie and go 4D in OT.

 

[mja]

Why stop there? Pull the goalie and go 4D in OT.

Keep going.

Goalie pulled, 4 D, and then play 1-3 the whole OT.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Imagine a Torts + Tulsky combo.

The real nerd in that group is the one that thinks sweaters under sport coats are a good idea.

Brady is obviously the GOAT in football

 

[Striiker]

Most superbowl wins =/= best

It's obviously Mean Joe.

@JojoTheWhale do we wanna do this

 

[Beef Invictus]

Never have I witnessed a sport where ownership doesn't treat their players like investments, but treat them as if they're animals. I'll never understand how a business that spends millions of dollars on players treats them in this manner.

This is a common old-school management philosophy. Players were treated like cattle. Their wellbeing was secondary.

Most teams in most sports moved away from that an eternity ago. Of course the Flyers still behave that way.

This is why Robert Horry is better than Michael Jordan.

Why did my stupid little peanut brain read that as “Harry Potter”?

I’m gonna take a nap.

[bennysflyers16]

Imagine a world where York gets benched more than Seelsy.

 

[Striiker]

Provorov and Ristolainen never need “resets”.

Weird.

 

[Magua]

Provorov and Ristolainen never need “resets”.

Weird.

Ristolainen actually did get healthy scratched.

And look at him now!

 

[bennysflyers16]

Apparently JVR legit is banged up. That makes much more sense than Flyers doing something smart

 

[Lindberg]

Most superbowl wins =/= best

The guy was dominate. The loserness of this franchise has blinded some of you guys.

Competing under pressure and winning does factor into it. The QB of football teams have huge outcomes on the games.
