If you've basically only watched non-Flyers games for a long time and you come back to this, the thing that really smacks you in the face is how none of this provides any joy. The hockey is nondescript. The broadcast is trite with zero substance. They exist as the hollow space where entertainment should be.

 

[3mFlyers]

Can they just clam that JVR and Hayes are hurt and sit them?

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Sandstrom with another good save. Positional save on that one.

The hockey is non-descript. The broadcast is trite with zero substance. They exist as the hollow space where entertainment should be.

Isn't it incredible?

GG

I legitimately think the Flyers front office would be disgusted at the idea of getting joy from hockey.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Don't think Farabee passes that if he realizes it's Braun and not Tippett.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

this is me waiting for Ghostbeer to give Ghost props for that keep in...

#crickets

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Rare Hayes back check.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

No, then it would at least be remarkable for how bad this is. This is nothing. It's simultaneously not everything in the universe.

I feel like I discovered an animatronic band that's been playing in an abandoned shed for 10 consecutive years. No one can be meant to actually see this.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Pretty sleepy period. One of Sandstrom's best after an early goal allowed, but neither team did anything at even strength.

I especially like watching other teams take opportunities to make risky but exciting plays and the Flyers usually just watch those chances come and go before taking the puck down low. It's almost like having a boring anti-offense coach
being told by a boring anti-offense management to go as defensive as possible negatively impacts things, you know?

Canes played "ATLiens" in the arena. Officially awesome. I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Also fun hearing a crowd make those collective gasps on the reg. It's been so long since we've had that

So you're saying the Flyers are hockey's version of Puddle of Mudd

This team has had all creativity, risk, and wonder hammered out of them for years.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

The Bruins lineup looks deep and balanced... and that's without Hall and Foligno...

Louie Debrusk commentating on his son's injury... must be awkward.

No Joy.......No Satisfaction........

I was thinking more Hoobastank.

If the Flyers were a band they’d be Puddle of Mudd.

We share one mind musically, Biff.

 

[Lindberg]

NHL people are so effing boring.

Is poke checking the puck at the goalie part of your game? What a stupid ass question.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

Some people would get benched for a shift like that

Provy like

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Got back to catch the last few mins of the first period, how has the youngbuck looked so far?

I'm listening to "Only Built For Cuban Linx."

Look at the guys that made it, though. It was meant for someone, sad as that is

This team has had all creativity, risk, and wonder hammered out of them for years.

The culture and accountability are off the charts though. Sometimes you have to make tradeoffs
