This is what happens when you don’t cut out the rot and shelter the bad ones.
Is this culture? Time for pride to take a seat in the back and scrub the thing clean.

This might have been the toughest one so far in terms of thinking outside the box (I only started playing on Saturday). Hours spent obsessively reading all those NHL guide and record books and playing late 2000s NHL games finally paid off.

Chuck Fletcher stole this from us.

The assumption was Berube and Hakstol couldn't coach, though they made the playoffs 3 times in 6 years.
In hindsight, they were coaching Flyer teams with mediocre talent (no depth at forward, below average defense), on better teams, they became better HCs.

I find it interesting that every coach going back to Lavi took a hard, uberdefensive turn under management that always ranted about defense.

Mayhaps your idols were giving shitty directives.

Hopefully he's saucing over to a 32 year old Michkov.

It’s 2023 and people are still somehow shocked to learn that shit coaches can be carried by good players.

Dave Hakstol would cling to a NHL career in the evil timeline

Lappy's successor is free to join the coaching staff

I'm trying to imagine any other sport where this kind of bottom-of-roster dude retiring gets any attention.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Remember when Thompson heroically fought back from his injury and the Flyers gifted him his spot in the lineup immediately upon his return as a reward?

Yep, the guy that wasn't healthy scratched once during his entire tenure with the Flyers.

Looks like great process and development to me.

But they couldn’t give G a shoutout when he hit 1000 points. Total shit show of an organization
