First, why do you consider yourself a gullible fan? Are you a fan who buys into the rhetoric the team spews and believes that the team is on the right path and has the right approach to building a contending team? Only you can look inside yourself and determine if you need to change your behavior. That's a personal choice.

I personally believe that only a message sent to the organization that the fan base is unhappy with their approach and philosophies will change how they operate. That happening is a pipe dream unfortunately.

I didn’t get that at all from the article. He wanted to go back for next year to win the college championship.

Which is why I said maybe he just wants to win one with Boston…

It’s the whole “stay there as long as you can” part that’s probably making Washington sweat.

He probably wants to be drafted by a better team

Chuck would’ve absolutely drafted him over Michkov. Thank god that didn’t happen.

Are there any good hockey meditation retreats that you can recommend hockey swami?

https://brotherlypuck.com...lacent-even-with-michkov/

Usually articles on this site aren’t that good but this one resonates. There’s different routes GMDB could go, but almost everyone agrees that Michkov needs a center. The most talented young center right now is Frost who is in and out of Torts doghouse all the time. It’s not like the Flyers have nothing to deal with as they have several wingers. The main term in the article is “insulate” and frankly the Flyers need to set this phenom up for success and confidence. But like I said earlier today, it’s the same team as before and the mantra seems to be “wait til next years draft” and then the reality is “and a couple years later these picks will finally play in the NHL”.

Where is the plan? Where are the chess pieces being moved?

Are the Flyers that complacent or is there really no one that will deal with them?

Not for a cheesesteak.

The best cheesteak in the city, by far, is Angelo's:

Lost me with the seeds on the rolls....that's a big no no.

Update:

What makes a Philly cheesesteak a Philly Cheesesteak....

Well obviously a Philly style steak means it's chopped, just like a Texas Cheesesteak is thick in slices.

To me what makes a Philly cheesesteak better than other "Philly" Cheesteak? THE PHILLY ROLL!

Amoroso is the answer, pure and simple.

The lines there on a given weekday exceed the sum of the people waiting outside John's RP +DAllesandro on any given weekend. On weekends, the wait can span 90 mins, 2 hours, or more.

Bro, you are stuck in the past, like, well, most of the posters here. It may not be traditional but as a progressive, let me tell you: There is nothing that can't be bettered. Keep your mind open, and your mouth, and try it before you knock it.

(Btw Cooper sharp + fried onions. Nothing else).

Man, they got you hook, line and sinker. Just another gullible Amoroso fan. Things will never change when fans like you just eat up everything they do.

Everyone has different tastes, but my taste palate has never failed me. I got a full ride to Johnson & Wales when I was young, and as you know from your notes I chose computer science over food, but one of my biggest strengths have always been attune to spotting flavors and texture.

I can tell from the picture you prefer overcooked foods.

Even though you said you're kidding, Amoroso is what put Philly on the map for cheesesteaks to begin with. If it wasn't for the bread it would of been another pile of meat from a greasy flat top.

We are talking about FAST food cheesesteaks, not luxury sandwiches from Le Bec-Fin.

At this point I’d be happy with a competent GM. Seems like forever since we had one of those.

Kinda sad that Homer seems like the best of the bunch since 2000...and that just says so much.

Homer did a really good job. He took over the worst team in the league. Of course. they lost the lottery in a draft that one franchise altering prospect. He still built a team that made it to the Finals. Thing unraveled badly after the Pronger career ending injury.

Holmgren was a good GM when there was no salary cap. Unfortunately, he was unable to adapt with the cap and really has been part of the problem with how the team operates and it's unwillingness and or inability to adapt to the modern day NHL

Too much $

Have to wonder I’m growing increasing optimistic about them moving on from konecny. Prob about 20% he’s traded

- Just5

Sabres beat reporter today on radio when asked if Sabres done or maybe still have moves to make replied gm Adams said that he was still talking to teams about a few players that had been discussed a lot and he was surprised not more talks because those players are still with teams and haven’t been traded or signed.


Well necas was heavy talk across league and likely Sabres were in talks about him but he signed so who has been rumored to maybe be moved that hasn’t or hasn’t signed extensions? Pinto signed too. So who is Adams referring too that’s still out there? Tk? Laughts? Gotta be at least one of those as db stating he’s still working on deals?

I have a strong feeling db is holding out trying to up the price on Adams as Adams is in a horrible spot and really needs a top 6 winger and 3c. They have to make playoffs or he’s out. Plus Buffalo has tons of cap and fans are pissed he didn’t fill those holes in free agency.
