GDT: #78 | Flyers at Rangers | Wednesday, April 9, 2025 | 7:30 PM | TNT

[tymed]

Skipped the 3rd period, wtf?

 

[GKJ]

This is a game the Flyers probably lose 90% of the time. Just a disgraceful display by NYR. What happened to them?

They seemed to have lost their defensive structure with all the trades they made. Which is weird since they seem to be happy with the players they brought in.

 

[HeadLiceHatty]

We’re picking 8 or higher as @Flyerfan4life predicted. #halfacentury

10OA come on down....

Worst f***ing thing that could have happened this year.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Worst f***ing thing that could have happened this year.

i told ya... any given thing that can happen the Flyers will always choose the wrong outcome..

ps i see Capn culture got zero points again for TML.. hes def gettin traded back here this offseason..

 

[Magua]

I’m telling y’all: Briere and Jones would rather finish 8th than 4th, and then they’ll say they want to trade up, but nothing will happen as usual. Dorwart’s development is paramount this final month.

It would have made this season palatable. Drafting high enough for someone to overcome their poor development program.

It’s the first time in a while I’ve been honestly disappointed by them. I admittedly got fairly excited for a top pick.

I’m just waiting to hear that Konecny will have some sort of off season surgery, and they played him anyway. That’s happening. 10/10.

 

[HeadLiceHatty]

Sometimes I don’t even know what to think with this org; we’re just doomed, it’s hard to like or enjoy hockey outside of Michkov. It’s crazy we got him at 7 there’s no one who’s even close to Michkov in this draft as a prospect he’d easily be 1 OA lol

 

[Tripod]

8?

Jesus.

 

[BackWithaVengeance]

We want Frondell or Hagens. Do whatever needs to be done. Thank you.

The Flyers we know.

Meaningless game equals another win -> hurt your draft spot and only one point for MM39 when Celebrini has a 5 point night.

 

[BackWithaVengeance]

Cant think of anything more Flyers than losing Hagens or Frondell to Boston because of a f***ing Hathaway shorty.

Edit: Yay, Panarin!

Culture Baby, here we go !!!!

 

[Boocowski]

Ya, but that was 8 goals against the Rags. I just can't hate on that.

 

[kudymen]

What the f***

 

[CerpinTaxt]

I mean more like 100% of us did. Maybe 99% with that one random dude who thinks winning games now somehow helps them win next year by “bringing a winning culture”. Whatever the hell that means

Can't be a winner if you don't win the meaningless games at the end of the season to ruin your draft position. Culture!

 

[Appleyard]

Quick needs to retire. JFC lol

I scout a lot of 16-20 year old goalies and if I had seen that game only from him I would have said his fundamentals were so poor that he would not be able to do a good enough job in the USHL ahaha.

The Couturier goal. The Pelletier goal. The Hathaway goal.

All 3 just awful goals to allow.

 

[Appleyard]

8?

Jesus.

8th is very difficult without losing lottery.

Even if Sabres so 1-3-1 over final 5?

Would take Flyers going 3-0-1 to pass them.

Even 7th seems unlikely.

If Penguins go 1-2-0?

Flyers have to go 3-1-0 to pass them.

5th is most likely. 6th and 4th are pretty similar likelihood.

There you go again, Alex, bringing in the math facts to spoil our whingeing!

Can we get RFK Jr to weigh in with some voodoo?

Selling out so severely on Sanheims goal that you can't come close to recovering wasn't great either

 

[MBFlyerfan]

Still at 5th for now. With much less RW's in case of tiebreakers stuff.

Michov is not winning the ROY. No Flyer has ever won for a reason - they love vanilla. Given the fact that he had to play the first 75% of the season under Ass-orella, it should not even be close, but they do not give you "points" for playing for a talent suppression pile of shit.

 

[Curufinwe]

I don't think it helps the culture, but it does help show just what a terrible coach Torts was for this team.

I forgot this game was on till I got to work this morning.

 

[Rebels57]

The only thing that could have made dropping a Snowman palatable in a must-lose game is if Michkov had a huge night. God forbid.

And with the lottery odds the way they are, if we finish 5th, there's a greater than 58% chance they pick 6th or 7th.

Tbf I would frame it as a 86% chance they pick top 6!

But yeh, I dont want to pick below 6 really. I think a chance they do something mad at 7-8.
