Rumor: Things Not Left Unsaid 3 - Flyers Rumors and Media Mentions: Never Ending Circles

[Rebels57]

The funniest thing, at least to me, is although they aren’t actually trying to tank, they are an injury or two away from having a legit shot at the 3rd worst record in the league and a top 5 pick.

Be a f***ing Flyer

It's the only silver lining on this trade. It's going to make them substantially worse in the short term.

What I love about this is the inevitable spin of authentics like:
"how did this happen, they made no mistakes, at least they have culture sooooo they are not Buffalo - obvious solution is shipping out young players who do not drive culture first and the next season will be so much better"

So with all non-Torts guys gone, the rebuild can begin, right?

“Not good, not bad”

This will describe Luchanko in 5 years. Rinse and repeat, the drafting processes never change.

“Not poor or bad… but just not being what they need him to be.”

Gee, player is the exact player that people here expect him to be but the organization has grand hopes for the player.

Maybe the scouts suck if that’s what they expect but it couldn’t possibly be that. They wanted Makar and Heiskanen.

If you suck, but you're a locker room guy, you get a pass on any shortcomings. That is what is being taken away. The worst players on the team will get away with anything just because they are "locker room" guys...
