Colangelo didn't trade Giroux, Voracek, and Ghost all within 16 months.
But he did pick Ben Simmons, Nerlens Noel, and Markelle Fultz all while trading up for Fultz with the picks Hinkie got. Harris and Doc might be Saruman and Sauron, but Colangelo is Morgoth

Feels like the Hurricanes get swept every year

Just a reminder to any of the stepfords that are still lingering... the rangers were literally a cup finalist, sucked and tore down the roster, and have built it back to being a cup finalist in the window that the Flyers have been irrelevant.

Panarin and Fox handpicking them because they wanted to live in NYC definitely helped accelerate that rebuild a ton.

Yes I too remember when they bottomed out and drafted Panarin, Fox and Shesterkin as a result.

Trading away the three of the top four best Flyers of all time is worse than wasting draft assets.

The Ghost trade alone is the worst GM decision in the history of sport.

I hear you but the Flyers were never a contender. The Sixers were set up to be a force at one time instead of a farce

It’s basically the same as last year. 2 losses in overtime, one of them multiple, another one-goal loss, all the while they are clearly the better team. If they lose Game 4 in the last 10 seconds of the game, it will complete the symmetry.

Carolinas depth approach to winning works in the regular season but when the Playoffs roll around and they are facing elite goalies on a nightly basis, most of their players cant seem to finish. They also havent been able to add a top tier goalie at any point under Brindy. Right now, they are losing because Shesterkin is significantly outplaying whichever goalie they start.

They are getting Halaked. Also how big of a role does their penalty kill play into it?
