We should get beat up good today.

So do we hate Gauthier or do we hate management?

When you have Hot Rod as your 1LW , where would Cutter even play on this stacked line up ?

Please refer to him properly as Future Team President Saint Scott of Laughton.

Quick question do you think culture is served best with coffee or alcohol, what would Torts want me to drink this morning ?

I believe the official Flyers cocktail is Sterno on the rocks.

So do we hate Gauthier or do we hate management?

Yes

So do we hate Gauthier or do we hate management?

At it’s core, Gauthier decided that the Flyers organization wasn’t the place for him.

We all see first hand how incompetent this organization has been.

How anyone holds anything against Gauthier is beyond me.

Since he returned to the lineup: 8g xGF 60.20%, HDCF 54.32%, xGFrel +7.57, HDCFrel +4.80.
Now it's a small sample, and he's been sheltered to some extent, which is why I'm not jumping to any conclusions.

But the eyeball test confirms, he's playing with a lot more confidence, using his speed to drive play.
He'll always be a bit of an adventure on defense, which is why they want to pair him with Seeler instead of Zamula/Andrae, giving him a veteran "safety blanket."

One reason Zamula is playing over Andrae:
his last 9 games, xGF 65.09%, HDCF 68.46%, xGFrel +12.19, HDCFrel +23.68
Given Zamula is out of options, they want to see if this is for real before making long-term decisions.

No jumping to conclusions? It's the entire basis for why you would make that trade again.

 

[BiggE]

Stop merging my f***ing posts, Satan!

 

[Beef Invictus]

people are angry at torts..for many reasons(i kind of get it). if he gets fired..who the f*** you would want to coach flyers? every coach in nhl is a dinosaur...atleast torts get something out of our lineup. sure with other ones we could get better draft pick...but if you want wins? who would you want our coach to be?

One of the guys who is actually good at it?

Wins isn't the point right now. Player development is. Tortorella is abysmal on that front.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Quick question do you think culture is served best with coffee or alcohol, what would Torts want me to drink this morning ?

You can do both

 

[CerpinTaxt]

So do we hate Gauthier or do we hate management?

No opinion on the player but definitely hate management

 

[Beef Invictus]

Yeah, Gauthier is irrelevant to me. From day 1 when he was dragged I've been low on him. Still am.

The fact that he managed to do all the regular stuff that increases the value of every other prospect and for them to manage to trade him for a player who is and will be worse, is peak mismanagement and that's where the whole problem lies. Not with the players, with the people choosing them.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Feels like Laughton has played 7 mins already

 

[Beef Invictus]

We won!

 

[Rebels57]

Gimme a Michkov goal off a Quitter penalty please

Feels like Laughton has played 7 mins already

Face of the Franchise since 2012

 

[BillDineen]

Idiots

Get Drysdale and Brink off that unit ffs

 

[FLYguy3911]

Risto on the PP now. This f***ing team.

 

[Rebels57]

HOW THE f*** DOES ROCKY THOMPSON STILL HAVE A JOB!?

I've seen monkey shit fights at the zoo more organized than this powerplay.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Uh Tippett are you ok

 

[CerpinTaxt]

Good lord this PP is garbage.

 

[HeadLiceHatty]

Power play an absolute circus, keep the PP coach employed though.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Cates and Risto on the PP is f***ing idiotic

 

[Rebels57]

Idiots

Get Drysdale and Brink off that unit ffs

Get both off the team TBH

 

[BigToe]

Quickly approaching that last ranked PP spot. Shoutout Rocky.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

They have one PPG from the defense. Drysdale.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Seeler slashed his entire face

 

[Beef Invictus]

Quickly approaching that last ranked PP spot. Shoutout Rocky.

They did say they wanted more consistency
