There are rumors going around that torts is going to be the coach next season. And with those rumors have come speculation that more players are going to be moved out. I swear to God if farabee is traded I'm going to be pissed. He's 24 years old and he easily could have had 60 plus points this season if given proper usage. I'm at the end of my extremely long line with Torts

If anything, they'll take a big step back next season if he's still here.

I’d be ok moving on from Farabee. Don’t hate him, but I have no attachment to any of these guys.

The issue wouldn’t be moving Joel, it’s as usual- what they would want in return.

Flyers pro scouting, and asset accumulation philosophies are trash.

Thank you for the replies I read them all, I understand all the stuff that's going on in the timelines and whatnot but Farabee along with konecny or players I really think would have been legit top line players if they were in other organizations. They're two of my favorites and I can't hate on them undercurrent circumstances, I love watching them play when they're at their best.

Moving Farabee but keeping TK would be asinine..TK has rhe greater value

How about both?

TK does have greater value indeed. Do you trust them to target an appropriate return to offset a loss of Konecny?

He’s the closest reason I have for watching, I am a little selfish because of that - I’ll openly admit.

It’s moot I think anyway. ASF has said many times that they are bringing him back, and I think he will get paid what he wants.

This is a franchise that according to scumbag Jones wants to return to being a premier FA destination, and I don’t for a second think they are willing to take a step back in this retool. No way in hell.

100% apathy until there's a coaching/management purge.

Trade literally anyone and everyone. It doesn't even matter because nothing will ever improve with this group of fools in charge.

Set Farabee and TK free. Give us a couple 7th rounders in 2034. I hear that draft is goin to be deep.
It’s so damn depressing. This team just keeps running on the treadmill to nowhere. They obsess over balls and culture as the game just passes them by.

They will be awful next season and, if they had an actual owner who gave a shit, that would give me hope that sweeping changes would occur. But who are we kidding? As long as they can keep selling Gritty dolls and the authentics keep buying tickets, Hilferty’s masters will be pleased. Can’t wait for the April 2025 press conference announcing Torts as a new senior advisor and welcoming Brad Shaw as the new HC.

We are in hell.

It's actually supposed to read "DEATH IS SAFE" per Torts' request, but the painter decided the work order was wrong and took matters into his own hands. Torts had him guillotined at center ice the following day in front of the whole organization as a motivational gambit.

Afterwards, Danny made 17 phone calls to get it fixed but couldn't find a taker.

Poor Danny. Little did he know that 18 is the magic number. Just one away

We will certainly not make the playoffs next year. There should be a lot of pressure to move TK by at least then with retention. If enters without a new contract it will be a contract year and he could career it. That’s a huge return!

They will extend TK this summer.

Brian Roberts did not get to be the head of Comcast by being a fool. With Comcast Spectacor looking at dropping $2.5 billion on improvements in the south Philly sports complex, having a lousy hockey team there can't be in the cards. At this point he has to realize that better leadership of the Flyers is requisite in order for this investment to be successful.
