I'm far from a hater and try to be optimistic, but it is pretty pathetic. I have no problem with Laughton but the whole "heart on his sleeve" and other cliches are brutal. It has to suck to be an announcer and try to hype up this team.

Very well said… the cliches and excuses need to be silenced at this point. They sold culture, getting the locker room right and cliches for too long.

Sadly true
- Dkos

This is a young man league now. The prime of the average to good players (where Tk resides) is roughly are 24/25- 27/28. Give or take make a few years. Signing any average to good player turning 29 years old to an 8 year extension is simply a stupid mistake. Those terms/age should only be considered for elite players.


Obviously philly thinks Tk is on verge of that elite area. Which simply isn’t a fact. Same as coots was/is

This team is so stupid

They won’t be silenced because the low iq flyers fans still eat it up. Still but merch. Still buy tickets. Still go to games and eat drink concessions.

The saddest part is the flyers fan is now conditioned to not only ACCEPT this bs narrative but also DEFEND it to preserve some sort of self preservation or dignity.

Truly sad

Not at all. Look at bill for example. Time will beat the will of the master into you until you fold and comply. I don’t even blame them. Why take food off your table when the low iq flyers fans have accepted it already. Why beat that drum. It’s just not worth it. Just accept your fate and go along. Be a good little puppet and get in line.


I mean any person with even a iota of critical thinking skills has to look at this situation and think to themselves something is seriously wrong and dysfunctional

You don’t have to convince me. Didn’t want to sign Coots. Didn’t want to sign TK. Didn’t like it when they gave Giroux his last contract and he was better than both those guys put together.

Offensive juggernaut these Flyers! They don’t need no stinking trades. Comcast should just change the name to the Philadelphia Donuts to reflect this team’s true nature.

Well I feel sorry for you. Welcome to the 5% group lmao. Personally I only watch and stay engaged with these team for my own selfish revenge on this (frank)head organization to criticize them every step of the way as a form of release for what I deem a betrayal of my own fandom in life rooting and investing my time energy and money into this team. Almost a they own me the right to lambast them at will. And they make it so easy time after time. Tomorrow will be no different

It is fascinating how much Torts must dislike Andrae. His top 6 is set in stone. I can understand York, Sanheim, and Drysdale penciled in every night for different reaaons. However, the other 3 slots cannot be touched with someone who has shown promise now stuck in the AHL again.

Culture
Teamwork
Playing right way
Work hard
Hunt for elite talent
Draft capital
Cap rising/under cap

Coming right up as you wish.
Spin each 10 different ways and you have a low iq fanbase easily distracted from reality

Edit: like I’ve said before it’s easier to sell and believe the lie than admit and deal with the reality. It’s the American way

Shoving some more Legend Laughton down the throat.

How did this guy get this status? He is a nobody in the Flyers history big Picture.

Sorry you feel that way. I like watching hockey and they’re my team. I’m too old to change. I have very little confidence that they’re going to be true contenders as long as Comcast owns them. My hope is that the current group of knuckleheads at least manages to put together something entertaining in the next year or two.

They won’t. I’m also old. I watch other teams more than ever. Fortunately for me I’m not in Philly stuck with only them. I can easily travel when I want to see other teams or hockey related things. Philly will always be my favorite team but I’ve accepted they will not win a cup in my lifetime as long as Cumcast owns them.

We get that Scott is locker room leader and one everyone looks up to….that’s been drilled into everyone’s head for years now. It does seem though that the amount of praise heaped on him, starts to border on sycophantic at some point. We get it, his teammates like him, but it’s also a business and Flyers need to move him while he still has value because the focus needs to be for next year and beyond. Enough already, Danny…trade him.
