Without Couturier this team sucks.

Basically have 4 top 6 forwards, 6 top 9 forwards without him.

Score less, concede more... as Giroux line has to be burnt at both ends so are limited both offensively and defensively. Cant shield 3 lines in the NHL...

I don't recall a Flyers team that i've disliked as much as I dislike this one.

Other than Ghost, everyone is so disappointing.

I don't understand the overreactions either. It's as if people have zero self control.

How is being worried about a guy that hasn't even started his 65 mill contract an over reaction ? He should never be one of the worst fwds for more than 1 game in a row

Not being concerned about him is same levels as Boxcar's love

Hey, Simmonds won his fight and we're closer to a top pick. I never root for them to lose, but I'm realistic about this team's needs for the future.

Now let's just hope that Ghost can get a point, but that doesn't seem likely tonight.

Flyers are in a special type of sad zone.

Won't make the playoffs
Won't get a Top 5 pick
Nobody is playing well enough to trade.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of these guys are back next year, at least guys with contracts.

Streit is untradeable
MacDonald is untradeable
Schultz is untradeable
Umberger is untradeable

All 4 of these guys will be on this team next year (unless Umberger is bought out). But nobody is trading ANYTHING for these 4 barely NHL players.

Could be worse. We could have Vinny for another 2 years.

You're suggesting to swap Voracek out for Umberger. That is insanely stupid. Voracek on his worst day is still better than whatever the hell Umberger brings.

Where did I suggest that ? I said looks like he's with them ( for a shift or 2 ) , and he has earned any demotion he gets.
