Haven't been so proud of Philly since they climbed greased poles after the Birds made the Super Bowl

I am fully on the Andy Reid train, but kicking the extra point down 24-6 is why he may never have nice things.
I am shocked that the GM who couldn’t get the Wild out of the first round is actually bad. Shocked!

Let’s recap Chuck Fletcher’s version of go time: sign Suter and Parise to mega deals, team tops out at 2nd in their division, middling in their conference. Seems a lot like Paul Holmgren’s, come to think of it.
Hextall: "First stage for me was cleaning up the cap. Stage two was incorporating young players. Stage 3 was go time. I didn't feel we were at go time yet."

I think more should have been done to ensure “go time” coincided with the remaining production windows of Giroux, Voracek, and Couturier. At the same time, it’s even more painful to learn that Hextall was trying to build a perennial contender, rather than induce a sugar high.

Unfortunately, a search for “patience” in the Flyer Way Handbook returns no results, explaining why we are where we are.
The hottest point of the sun.
PHI has asked for and received permission from ANA to talk to Dave Nonis about the Flyers GM job. Chuck Fletcher and Bill Zito are the other candidates, to this point.
Fire this organization into the sun.
Hextall: "I didn't see this coming..... I was shocked. The only thing Homer said is 'Your vision and my vision aren't the same.'"

im thinking about those optimized lines (ignore the 25 next to MacDonald's name, can't be perfect)

You ever think about how the Flyers iced their best possible lineup precisely one time in 88 games this season, and in that one game they rolled over the team that just won the Cup?

Anyone got the Colangelo resignation letter?
If this results in anything other than @samhinkie being returned to the 76ers general manager position, I will watch approximately zero (0) Sixers games for the rest of my days. teapaw.org/robpizzola/status/1001…
Looking forward to seeing the many prime free agents that established basketball man Bryan Colangelo will attract to Philadelphia this summer. He’s going to have so much more pull than someone like Sam Hinkie!
