Boy George over MM on a PP

Defend Torts Deady

 

[BiggE]

Having to watch either of these teams on the pp should be considered cruel and unusual punishment.

There’s like 12 people there

 

[bennysflyers16]

f*** I wanted that shorty so bad.

 

[Rebels57]

Does Brink now get benched after that comical powerplay turnover that led to an oddman rush? I mean, Callahan did say God Emperor Torts holds EVERYONE accountable, right?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

You'd think these smoothbrain broadcasters would litigate WHY Torts decided to Michkov with an already short-bench and B2B games...rather than just waxing poetic about his truly heroic "message sending."

He’s a legend.

no i need TK to sneak in 1 for the salami lol

 

[Beef Invictus]

The only message Tortorella sends here is that he values losing more if winning means going in on offense.

I'm told losing is bad for culture though? Hmmm

 

[bennysflyers16]

Maybe it’s for Petterson like I said

Jett Frost 1st

 

[Rebels57]

Game 82 last year when they needed a goal? Bench Frost.

Tonight, second game of back to back and Frost not on the bench? Bench Michkov.

Torts motto is message sending above everything. Hurting the team time and time again.

He gets off on 2 things; straddling his horses, and asserting dominance over young men .

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Haven’t scored a goal since they raised prices.

Makes you wonder.

 

[BiggE]

I wish I had another team. Almost picked the Blues in the early 90s cause Hull was my second favorite player after Lindros.

I live in Florida so I might as well start following the Panthers and Bolts.

At least I’ll get to enjoy actual hockey, powerplays and the playoffs.

Narrator voice: But Brink was not benched.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Even accounting for playing last night this is an absurd level of going through the motions. Gliding about and waving sticks

The players quitting on Torts would be a godsend at this point.

It's not like they have a cohesive offense of defense scheme anyway.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Raise prices
Say Cates is reason why in letter
Shutout
Shutout
Trade Frost for soft , high paid , shit Russian that f*** face will loathe.

This is a masterclass.

Danny Briere, boy genius

 

[bennysflyers16]

Who’s Jakob Pelletier ?

 

[freakydallas13]

Trade is being held up because after Torts screamed at MM, Briere took Torts' side and added Michkov to the trade package.

 

[Tripod]

Trade Frost
Bench Michkov

How can you defend these f***ing scumbags

Torts will masserbate tonight

 

[flyers0909]

I always knew this day would come, but I am just not ready for it…

I know he hasn't been as good as expected (he's been dicked around like no other) but he's my favorite player so this really sucks. Don't enjoy much of this team lately so I'm honestly not sure how much more I'll watch this year. Especially with Michkov playing 4 minutes a night...

 

[bennysflyers16]

Cates and Laughton are the top centers. Rebuild over

I already follow them way less than I used to, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to shake the Flyers completely. I feel grateful to have a minor league team so close by, though... especially one so historically successful. Since I started following in 2004, the Bears have only missed the playoffs three times and only had one losing season. I've gotten to see them win five championships and got to be there for the Cup-winning game in 2010 (wish I could've been there last season but opted to buy tickets for a game 7 that never happened). I still gripe about them all the time but it's been a much more pleasant experience than the last decade-plus of Flyera hockey.
