Surprised there’s never been a Belarusian goalie to play in the NHL before.
the best part is we are 31st out of 32 teams and this is year 3 of a 3 year rebuild..The fact that the Blackhawks have given up 9 less goals than the Flyers in the same amount of games should really show how bad this f***ing team is. They are running at about 3.5 goals given up on average a game.
Briere is too f***ing stupid to realize that there are going to be a lot of players who don't want to be here.

That's not a fair judgement of this teams qualities. Sharks are the only team that's tanking. Most are either trying to do half assed retool or slowly trying to contend following a rebuild. We are simply as bad as other bad teams. However the thing is that we don't have any rentals and god forbid they'll do a hockey trade given how inept their pro scouting is. Two years away from two years away.the best part is we are 31st out of 32 teams and this is year 3 of a 3 year rebuild..

This is the 2nd year of what is probably a 5 year rebuild, by 2017-18 they should start to be competitive.
So far I have no problem with their drafts, especially seeing their D+1 seasons.
I wanted to tank, so honestly the losses don't matter at all to me.
What I don't love...Regressions from....86, 71, 48, 8, 74....that is not good
For sure - fans can't winIf they didn't have those regressions, the team wouldn't be this bad.
Just watch the traffic around the Flyers net against teams like Minnesota and you can see why.Meltzer from hockeybuzz:
"I was told by someone in hockey ops that Tortorella did not want "go too small on D" with three small/smallish D. York and Drysdale are in the lineup, so that squeezed out Andrae when he was called up. Right now with York out, though, there's an opportunity for Andrae. He was a bright spot last night."

Both teams have played 9 games:The fact that the Blackhawks have given up 9 less goals than the Flyers in the same amount of games should really show how bad this f***ing team is. They are running at about 3.5 goals given up on average a game.

So dress an inferior big player. Makes sense.Just watch the traffic around the Flyers net against teams like Minnesota and you can see why.
Because they are not a good team? Nah no way with 15 1st rd picks on the roster.Both teams have played 9 games:
Chicago 5x5 18.88 xGA - all 31.14
Flyers 5x5 16.57 xGA - all 27.05
Hmm. Wonder why Flyers have given up more goals?
I'd ask Jo Jo, I can't afford to sign up to the best sites (spend too much money on the NYT and the Economist on a fixed income).There's a joke between me and my buddy that if PHI continues this way, even Ābols won't be able to save Flyers.
Sigh.
@deadhead , analytics-wise, any other good nuggets you can share? (no sarcasm, btw). I want to dig a bit deeper myself, perhaps on player-level, but would appreciate being shown direction, slightly.
