The Official Thread of the Philadelphia Flyers (Established 2005)

Well, the Flyers Wives Carnival was pretty cool. They televised it on Comcast and it was nice. All the players say no other team does anything like it. Flyers may be looked at as the roughest and toughest but the team cares about its fans and the fans care about its team. Go Flyers!

HOLY ****! WE WON! IN A SHOOTOUT! THIS IS AMAZING!

Dukefan22 · 02-25-2008, 11:09 PM

A win! And Vinnie Prospal comes back to Philly. Interesting...

Wow. That's what a shootout victory feels like? Golly.

Ah hah, I know. It seems like we're always on the losing end of the shootouts. And in other news, Vinny Prospal is coming back in exchange for Alexandre Picard and a pick. Funny, I was just thinking about what happened to Picard and then poof! He's on his way out. As for Prospal, he's having a pretty good year with 20+ goals and 20+ assists. Should be a good pick up to fill in for injuries and then continue to play when the guys do come back.

Now that's the kind of trade I don't mind. Picard had no future in Philly. I still think Holmgren is going to make a play for a defenseman today...

TSN says we're in the mix for Jokinen. And I keep hearing rumors that we might be buyers in the Islanders firesale that will include Satan, Rusty Fedotenko, and probably Comrie as well.

I don't want to make moves, period. But if Holmgren ignores the defensive weaknesses to add one or more journeymen forwards, I'm going to be steamed.

I know the Flyers aren't going for Satan...but if by chance they do, I'll be the first in line for a Satan jersey

All-Time the Flyers are 6-16 in the Shootouts. Nice to see them get one to end a horrible streak. And what makes it 10 times better is Briere getting it after being booed all game.

Welcome back Vinny

Hmm... things are looking a little brighter for the Flyers now. Already the whiners and naysayers are calming down a little. We went through a rough patch. Okay? We're not as bad as 10 straight losses. We might not be as good as that good stretch we had, but we're still a good team. I never lost faith in the club. It's good to face some adversity. It's better to win every game but, hey, what are you gonna do? Go Flyers.
