You really can't tell a difference? The way dman moves the puck on the play, the way we neutralise team in the neutral zone now. We killed the lightning speed. The way we play more physical. Giroux on the PK. Couts being used in an offensive role.

I can see a ton of change. I think the only thing that makes us a bubble team is that you never know which team will show. But if it's the good flyers, then we can compete vs anyone (1 game, not best of 4)


Agreed that Giroux back on the PK is a good thing. Him and Scotty seem to have chemistry there, but I don't know still just not feeling the offense from the team. The cycle game has been pretty non-existent.

But maybe we need to play more defensively because of the lack of talent to win games consistently. I was just hoping I would see more rush plays. Again Medvedev (no Drago he isn't the best thing since slice bread) but he is an improvement definitely over what we have had as far as moving the puck goes. I'll take his out of position style of player for the creativity he provides on the offense side of the ice.

Luke Schenn can't skate I mean how do you make the NHL as a 5th overall pick and cannot skate? Its the biggest joke. Who scouts these players I swear lol

I think luke schenn got rushed into the nhl then got caught in a mess in toronto and wasnt playing at all. He should have played more junior and AHL like most dmen need to be successful. Just like what were doing here. We have a good example of why we don't rush players unless exceptional ones like Ekblad or Doughty

yeah a thread where somebody likely said flyers d is crap
so i said we got medvedev whos supposed to be pretty good and should make our d not so crap
" omg medvedev for norris" is what some of you took from it .. no wonder you guys think im such a homer u do this shit all the time

i cant say anything flyers related towards a player with out you guys scaling it to 10x what i actually said and being all like " lol homer"
and then people quote you and then i got like 5 people acting like im a giant homer over something i never even came close to saying

You are the biggest homer. And I am negative nancy. These are facts.

The flyers just don't give me any reason to trust what they do. They haven't won a cup in 40+ years. All we can do is hope..

And I am the not-really negative and probably a little too much homer

And its ok like that, people tend to laugh at us because they're just having fun, if it makes them happy then good
