I'm wondering when Tuomaala and/or McDonald get a shot. I think there is a question to be answered whether they are viable NHL players. This should be the year to give them some games.

That won't happen since torts will milk this team for every W possible. Everybody block shots

Oh, you were drafted for your offensive abailities? Tough poop. Block shots or be benched

Just tuning in.. almost half way through the second period. Flyers have.... 4 shots.

Hear me out.... what IF... what IF we have a coach who is focused on scoring goals and MAYBE even having the players take shots on net.
I know it's crazy to want to score goals in the NHL but how much longer does the failed torts experiment need to happen.
This is the same mofo who plays 2 D during a 3 on 3 OT.
Just saying....

Very few bright spots tonight. Fedotov and maybe Seeler. Every forward is invisible.

At least Fedotov is getting plenty of work- amazing they are barely getting the puck to the red line.

Stop it with the coach, the turnovers and penalties are just horrible and that is on the players! They have four shots because they are constantly defending and have no ability to gain possession of the puck and keep it. Again that’s on the players, not the coach

Its a sad, sad, sad team when seeler is our bright spot.

He was a journeyman and fetlcher of all people resurrected his career.

Good God.... its easier to cheer for losses tahn it is to gope and pray for wins

4 shots. Over halfway through the game...

You can polish his pole all you want. Ill keep on with my shenanigans and there's nothing you can do except continue to whine and defend him.

Hard to generate any offense when you are constantly shorthanded. Not that they have been doing anything at 5 on 5 either.

Funny... a few years ago there was a team from... lemme think.. st Louis maybe... that when they got rid of the coach and found a coach to utilize their talents and ability I remenber them going pretty into the playoffs. Dare I say that they may have even won some type of award that year 🤷🤔

All they had to do was find a new coach.

But hey...what do i know..
Torts pole seems pretty polished with you here and I'd hate to tarnish it

They have 2 puck movers on the blue line right now- may want to think about not playing them together

Its sad and hard to watch. I just remind myself that this is a deep draft and that makes me feel better inside.
Admittedly ive been team tank for 2 years now. I enjoyed the exciting hockey from last season but I've yet to see that so far this season. It's just disappointing

I'm starting to see stories that it may not be such a deep draft after all.

This is a bad as you can get offensively. 1 f@cking shot all period. I get you've been killing penalties mostly but even so, most teams couldn't try to be this neutered offensively.

It has nothing to do with style, the Flyers have bad centers and a bunch of bottom 6 forwards. It’s not working right now for anyone, they are completely being the play
