You guys are in deep trouble. You want the Flyers to be something the Flyers don't want to be and so you will never be happy.
It's more likely that one day the Flyers join the 21st century then it is that "Flyers hockey" will become effective again.

I also get to enjoy other teams play fun, fast paced modern hockey. The Authentics, have to contend themselves with watching blurry 90s highlights and whining about the state of the game until they die.

Even when the Flyers miraculously figure it out the Authentics will be pissed off because the hockey will be "soft"

This morning there was some ice issues but nothing too wild.
Ceilings and visibility were both down this morning which limits thr amount of aircraft that can get in because separation needs to be higher.

That route in operated by the regional airline I work for. When ops into a eastern seaboard airport are being throttled we are always one of the first airlines to get our departure axed by traffic restrictions.
 
Sure, but what I mean is the critics are usually looking for a style and type that doesn't mesh and most likely never will because that's not what ownership wants. The best you can hope for is a Boston or Washington type team. You're not going to get the Oilers.

If all goes well and they make smart moves you could get Florida though so it's not all hopeless imo.
Nobody is going to be complaining about a team with multiple hall of famers. Including the greatest goal scorer of all time and the best two way forward of his generations.

Of course the Flyers don't want a team like that. That's not grindy enough.

Between the Boston and Washington cup teams, they had:
  • The greatest goal scorer ever
  • The best selke player of the generation
  • A HOF Norris D-man
  • A goalie that put up one of the greatest Conn Smythe performances ever
  • Multiple other elite players (Marchand, Carlson, Backstrom, etc.)
And they combined for a single cup, each.

The Flyers meanwhile have Michkov (their only chance at an elite player in the entire organization) and what, median second line LW Noah "Fence" Cates? Get back to me when the Flyers have half the talent either of those cup teams had.

Wow. Way to really put your foot down with bold predictions like "young FAs" will be signed and old ones won't. At least you were specific and didn't vaguely describe your positions so you can argue nuance if they don't end up right.

1) Laughton won't be traded this deadline.

2) Torts won't be fired before the start of the 25-26 season.

3) The Flyers will enter the 25-26 and 26-27 within 1.5 million dollars of the cap.

4) They won't make the playoffs in 25-26 or 26-27.

5) Jett won't play more then 25 games for the Flyers in 25-26.
You said predictions not desires. Not sure how you can be more specific on the future than that but whatever.
Now how many games will Jett play in 2027? I say a full season barring injury.
 
There is literally zero chance the Flyers become that team in a few years. Literally impossible. Get a grip


You're one of those posters who can't understand that tanking is only the first step in the process.
No I understand tanking well. As I said, I have many Buffalo fans/friends and every one of them says "we should not have tanked, it broke the franchise".
I wasn't saying we would be Florida in a few years but eventually that might be the team we can become with this philosophy that they have. I said we can be a playoff team in 2027 and stay a playoff team. We likely won't be a true cup contender for several years but hopefully Michkov won't have to wait as long as Ovi did.

These depictions of modern hockey vs. outdated hockey are not so black and white and different. There are overlaps and similarities too. In the end there is no question you need a balanced roster but how you get there is an arguable question of philosophy. There is no one clear obvious path. If there was, everyone would do it.

I think Michkov will become a hall of famer. That's one big step. If Ersson keeps playing the way he just did we might not have a goalie issue after all. We need more, but I personally feel we are more on the right track now than we were back when we fired Hextall and then Fletcher just ruined everything else.

Your reply here shows that you don't understand tanking. You also clearly said they could be in a couple of years. Do I have to point out where you did? You have zero understanding of this sport, or the Flyers. You're simply not a serious person. I'm just replying to you for shits and giggles.
