No, I don't believe it is "the same" and I was good with hiring Briere. I'm simply willing to give him a reasonable time to succeed or fail.
I hated the Fletcher hire and wanted him gone. I would have been on board with Zito as well but every team that isn't winning has a fanbase saying we should have hired Zito now. It's what happens when somebody succeeds.

There is a search function. This board was around back then. You could go find out, instead of implying we’re lying about what we thought at the time.

Give me 5 predictions you have for the Flyers over the next 2 full seasons.

Or do you have no opinions at all? Just a complete winding?

5 predictions? That's kind of hard to be specific on but sure, I will give it a go.

1. Foerster, Cates and Pelletier will all be signed. Kuzmenko will also get a new deal/extension. Johnson won't be back. Not sure what happens with Abols. Probably signed. Next year's team might not be much different to this year's.

2. Kolosov will actually look good next year.

3. Laughton and DesLauriers will not be Flyers after next season if not sooner.

4. Drysdale, Zamula and Andrae all will be.

5. Torts will either be fired or more likely bumped upstairs into a senior advisory role after next season.

I'm not going to predict draft picks and free agent signings but there will be some, especially when the cap rises and when the dead money ends.

Playoff guarantee in 2027.

You?
 
Calgary has been pushing these two like crazy. They’ve been part of the pre game and post game interviews. Here’s Frosts pregame from today…



I don’t think I have ever seen Frost smile as much as this during any interview with the Flyers media. I think back to his 2024 breakup day interview where he was so distressed he couldn’t even look up for more than 2 mins.

I really am happy for him and Farabee to be given a new chance.

I watched both of their games. Hearing other teams' broadcast crew talking up our former players is such a breath of fresh air versus our guys constantly gushing over the Haggs, Mannings, VDVs, Hathaways, Seelers, etc, of the world.

Some fun tidbits from the Flames board.

It's fun that fans with no skin in this game can see things that a big portion of our own fanbase can't even imagine.

It is the same. They're following the same path, doing the same stuff. It's all the same people. Nothing changed.

I’ve never seen anything like this. The wallowing in grief by fans, media, players over the passing of, err I mean the trade of, the beloved Frosty and Beezy. There’s just nothing like the Flyer cult

This guy gets it, this is more of a cult than anything. Fighting, hitting, blocking shots, grinding, checking, dump n chase. #halfacentury

What's so great about Tulsky?

Now on the grit question, I hate to bring up the Sabres again but go check out twitter #Sabres right now or any of their forums. That's talent over grit, and they be in last place.

it's funny how we got some grit players in the lineup against utah and we all of sudden are scoring goals

It's such a weird situation.

There's some trades which were good (Provorov, Walker). I guess it's easier to "win" a trade when you take on salary because you can extract a bit more value for shouldering that burden.

I'm also impressed at how Briere (and the entire FO) is able to keep things very quiet (Fedotov, Michkov, Gauthier, even Frost/Farabee) and not have rumours and information leaks.

On the other hand, Briere is way too candid with the media about some Flyers' plans and strategies. I don't understand how that helps him. Saying he works hard to make sure it's a win-win is unnecessary. If that's your philosophy, fine. No need to virtue signal. Let your actions speak instead.

I was a huge fan of him as a player, but not really sold on him as GM. It's a mixed bag.
