Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XCI: Bring Your Own Mustard

What do you guys expect Chuck to do? Close Disney+ and actually call someone? His hands are tied by Hextall. He has no other option

Hextall’s hands were tied by Russ Farwell.
That makes about as much sense as dragging Hextall into this current shitshow in Philadelphia

They should hire Fletcher next.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Fletcher deserves to be unemployed for the rest of his life. He can't be trusted to put together a boy dog at the concession stand for a peewee hockey tournament much less do anything at all at a higher level

 

[FLYERSFAN18]

We need one of these for Fletcher, Torts, Holmgren, and Clarke each game for the rest of the season.

Fenway Sports Group probably didn’t want to come in and totally screw up the qi in the organization, what with Crosby in his last years. But I have zero doubts one of the most cutting edge ownership groups in the sports world is waiting to put their stamp on the team for the decades to come. When it comes to doing a full scale overhaul, the post-Crosby era Penguins will rebuild before the Flyers. That’s the trust competent oversight inspires.

“Fire Hextall” chants at the Penguins game

[Rebels57]

Imagine if the pens fire Hextall before the Flyers fire Charles

Oh its going to happen.

Most Flyers fans that still attend games are f***ing idiots and think Torts is the way of the future.

You can't win by directly causing your team to score 4 goals

Now do flyers lol

Boston f***ed up, with zero hindsight, a layup for one of the greatest 1st rounds ever……and has still built a yearly contender and the current best team in the league. So, I really don’t need to hear how a 1st round pick or two (damn you, Hextall!) has completely derailed the entire Flyers organization.

Damn totally forgot about that lol. It’s crazy cus either scenario would’ve led to positive results.

Quote from the Penguins board this week on Hextall. How many times was this posted verbatim on the Flyers board five years ago?

"There is being patient as a GM, and then there is conservatism to the point of impotence."

GDT: - Trade Deadline: Tampa won the Jeannot sweepstakes!

I'd say the same about Cooke to you. Dude's gonna live in infamy forever as one of the most unhinged, sociopathic players with zero regard for his peers going back to the wild west days of the 70s and 80s. Oh I agree on Cooke 100%, but Ruutu was also on top of being a head hunter someone that...

I absolutely love that Fletcher put the Flyers cap space into such shit spot (dem Hextall contracts) that he can’t even jump in these three way trades to basically fetch picks almost for free can’t fetch new ones, traded away old ones while effectively selling low on many assets. Guy is a genius

No wonder his name is not on THE LETTER

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Hextall’s been more active & taking risks in Pittsburgh than here but his player evaluations at the pro level have continued to be straight up garbage.
