you forgot bullpuckey calls because they are the panthers
“The Flyers didn’t win last night” that definitely is a statement that will be true and repeated again this year.
I so wish that they were better. I agree with you. No moral victories anymore.
Jason you have to relax
The Cates line badly outplayed FLA's 3rd line. The Flyers top 2 lines did not outplay FLA's top 2 lines. FLA's top 2 lines are still great. When Barkov and Tkachuk are healthy, FLA has 3 great lines.
Valdor played well, no points in game one as important as game 82 new coach and system.
Dvorak and Zegras should have been swapped for this game. Especially against that team. Vladar and the Cates line played awesome! Nice to see only 2 goals on 34 shots. Carolina won't be any easier but they had a chance to win this game.
Great take on the new season and coach and his call in net I was surprised it was Valdor let the fun begin 😮
This might be one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen Jason take. It’s game 1 against the two time defending champs. It’s a 1 goal loss and you’re acting like the wheels are falling off. Vladar played good and we were a post away on a breakaway from a tied game. The salt from the Phillies loss is really showing in this one.
Hi Jason…in short…the team needs to believe in themselves more!! Great goalkeeping performance…and yes, I agree!!! LET'S GO FLYERS 🏒👍
These gsmes are pretty meaningless.
Florida barely broke a sweat.
Teams usually take 20-25 games to experiment and figure things out.
Would this be accepted by the fans, media and nhl if Torts were making that call and started 80? Imagine that heat if the name wasn't Rick Tocchet. #LetsGoFlyers
No shot on goal from Zegres… & unfortunately there are no really high quality players to even target in FA because the league is locking down all their studs. We have what we have & we’re stuck with them
The 2025-26 Flyers were always destined for a bottom 5 finish. The 2026-27 Team? Alao bottom 5 finish because they're will be no good free agents.
Great stuff as usual, Jason.
My expectations for the season remain. You got me a little more excited last week with your 5/6 predictions. This is a you g team with some seasoned vets that are learning a new system and an almost completely new coaching staff. I think at times we will shine when things just click.
We are still missing pieces. DB freeing up Ellis money IMO will help us come deadlineish time. If we earn it maybe we will go get someone that’s missing. I don’t want to question taco’s decisions too early but yeah someone in the lineup only playing a handful of minutes isn’t really helping.
If we're playing a team as dirty as the Panthers, I want Delo in the lineup. I don't care if it costs us one "talented" player.
The "equity" take is a weird one considering Grebenkin played his balls off and got benched for Delo who should be on an AHl roster. If we are in rebuild, why aren't we giving young players like Andrae, Grebenkin, Bump, Luchanko room to grow? Let them fail, stop sheltering with garbage like Delo, Juulsen and the like. If Andrae shows something and you don't want small defencemen going forward, at least you have a trade commodity. What are you accomplishing in a rebuild starting old tired garbage?
This team will be buried by Thanksgiving
I get your point, no moral victories, no excuses. Although I do have a request, can we make at least a concerted effort to not dwell on the bad and try to find the good and acknowledge The individual steps and progression players are making. After the Phillies hit the brick wall last night, the Flyers fell flat, and the Eagles shit the bed. I'm really not sure how I'm going to make it through 2025 let alone the full NHL season. Shit looks real bleak, and the happy pills only do so much.😅😅
my complaint is swap Nicolas d out for jett
put him on 4rth line at center give him 8min a game or more that will.create 4rth line that can maybe score some
I wanted michov , zegrees with forestor on a line
move davorak to 3rd
valador played great in net very impressive
letting goalie see the shots and from blue line and sides most goales can handle that
no.middle shots
Do I detect a couple of shots at the Pollyanna like takes from NBCSports team??? 😛
The Deslauriers crying is hilarious
No moral victory guys need to step up
