After trading Frost, Farabee, Kuzmenko, and Laughton they don't have enough not just good players, but players good enough for the NHL.

Their best center is Cates, who wouldn't even be 3C on a good NHL team. They have 3 top6 forwards (TK, Michkov, Tippett), of who Tippett is only good for skating to the net with the puck because he doesn't see teammates if they are further than 15 feet from him. Their PP1 QB is Ristolainen, who wouldn't even be PP2 QB on most of NHL teams.

They play Deslauriers, Pelletier, Abols who aren't NHLers period. Their goalies suck, and their defense is the only part of the team that ok, if we aren't talking about PP QBing, and even then their legit top4 NHL defensemen are Sanheim, Ristolainen, and probably York. That's it.

Oh, and they play the most boring hockey in the world. I mean I watched tons of Sochi games in previous two seasons, who were the worst KHL team, and I can't watch the Flyers like at all...

San Jose and Buffalo are worse, but Philly's brand of hockey is certaintly unexciting. Why do folks go to their games anyway?

Seem to be spinning their wheels for sure..
 
I don’t get the chance to watch the flyers much. I wanted to go to money puck and just look around.

Their model loves you. They expect your 5v5 goal diff to be much better than the results you’ve experienced. They think you’re a good to great 5v5 team who has had a disproportionate number of unexpected goals against.

Fun stats

The flyers have both the 5 most high danger chances for and 5th most high danger against.

Sounds like fun hockey….

Unfortunately you are dead last in most goaltending stats and below expected outcomes too. Idk if this is always a judgement on goaltending. Really rough on the goalies to be 5th in the league in high danger against.

Anyway have a good day.
 
If you ever get a chance to watch the Sharks, you'll quickly realize that you wish you didn't. So yeah, Sharks.

Look at their forwards. Celebrini, Eklund, Smith, Toffoli, and they traded Granlund and Zetterlund. I'm pretty sure Kovalenko would look very well with Michkov, much better than Tippett. And you really think Georgiev is worse than Ersson and Fedotov? Yeah, he isn't.

They don't have defensemen as good as Sanheim, and they traded away Walman, but overall their defense isn't that much worse than Flyers' if worse at all.

Their main problem is coaching, and they don't fix it because their two main goals for this season are to tank and to win Calder for Celebrini. And they're doing good so far.

And if, say, they swapped their coaches with Phily, the Sharks would have been much better team than Flyers.

They have Michkov, and some of their players are creative enough, but they have very few players who can actually score goals. TK, Michkov, and that's it.

Tippett is a weird case. He can singlehandedly outskate the whole opposite team and score a goal, and he's good enough for different types of breakaways, but he just can't pass.
 
The Philadelphia Flyers need to fire the too idiots, that they have for GM and Coach.

The coach is wayyyyyyy out of touch and the GM is over his head.

Nah, their GM is good. He does exactly what he has to, to make the team this terrible. The Flyers need to tank, and the only way to tank when your HC is Tortorella, is to make your team the worst in the league by far. Because Torts can turn even a bad team into an average one.
