Pens vs Refgers game 3

[BethlehemSteel]

I was happy with the Perron and Horny trade too. Perron is injured, he was not like this when we acquired him. I think I remember reading he's got some hip problem

We'll never know for sure, but the Edmonton media were suggesting it, and he certainly isnt skating well, the hip was a problem from last offseason and it looks like it has lingered because he is better than this

Did anyone advise JR making this bonehead move? This draft is deep, he gone and did things his usual arse end up way. Who gives up a first rounder for a maybe injured journeyman

JR

[Hacksaw Jim Duggan]

Was there video of a head striking a rail, I'd find a new respect for the abortion that is JR

Agree, especially after that masterful job Hextall has done.

This may smart a bit here.

What numbskull trades away and doesn't guarantee lottery protection....JR

Clearly Hextall loves his picks, and want's to build through the draft. What he touted when hired last summer. You should look up Travis Sanhein as well.

Flyers’ 2015 Draft Picks:

1st round: 11th overall and 24th overall (Tampa)
2nd round: 51st overall (Chicago)
3rd round: 73rd overall (San Jose ) and 84th overall (Tampa Bay)
4th round: 96th overall (Columbus) and 101st overall

3 more for later rounds too, 10 in all this year.

Who else has multiple 1st round picks?

Arizona: plus Chicago’s pick
Buffalo: plus Islanders’ pick
Carolina: plus Los Angeles’ pick
Edmonton: plus Pittsburgh’s pick
Toronto: plus Nashville’s pick
Winnipeg: plus St. Louis’ pick

Teams without 1st Round picks: Chicago, Los Angeles, Nashville, N.Y. Islanders, N.Y. Rangers, Pittsburgh, St. Louis.

Flyers moved salary cap with Coburn trade and Timonen trade, picks as well.

You know, the Browns and their fans usually boast about how many draft picks they have every year, too.

Comparing Neal and horn's production is kind of dumb though, Neal was a point a game player when playing with Geno, horn got to play with 2 best centers in league. Now we have no sniper, I'm not saying horn has been a disappointment but it's hard to find a good match for Geno. Plus we are now paying spaling 2.2 million per year, way too much. I don't think it improved team

[Legacy User]

Funny thing about all those teams with multiple 1st round picks, only one of them is in the playoffs. And the one team that's in is down 3 games to none in their series. And all those teams without 1st round picks have either won Cups recently or are currently in the playoffs.

Not to let the facts get in the way of a good story.

Quite honestly , the Pens are the Browns, looking that way since 2009. Seems others think my argument is very sound. You know you're a foolish yunz putz

What's worse......pit has 4 picks. 1 2nd, 1 fifth, sixth and seventh. Now that's bad

The Pirates used to boast about their "prospects" as well.

You know, when they were on a 20+ year playoff drought.

When you have no recent past or present, the only thing left to do is talk about the future.

[BethlehemSteel]

You're a doofus. Too recent past was finals trip in 2010, so on that simple fact have the pens made the finals since they won? You're talking recent.

The tee times are reserved. They've played better with the lineup they have but it will take a miracle for them to advance.

Crysby, look at reality......take a look at other boards and see the malcontent over shero, jr and all the organizational strife. Phillys got theirs too, but they have a solid plan for next decade....what is Pitt gonna do?

[jeemie]

Phillys got theirs too, but they have a solid plan for next decade....

The Flyers will never...ever...win a Stanley Cup with Ed Snider owning the team.

Book it.

"Solid plan". Hextall couldn't even properly fire the coach...first he emasculated him, then took a whole day to do his "deep investigation" as to whether he should fire him or not.

Hexy may have spent some time in the Kings' organization, but that doesn't mean he's proved he knows what he's doing yet.

He's helped draft the guys that won their 2 cups, i think he's more than qualified. Typical head in the sand schill from Pens fans. You have no knowledge of NHL, just the S & G show.

He had to fire the coach officially after Snider signed off on it. He was fired a few days prior, Berube's answers to the press on throwing players under the bus was proof he was trolling and he knew he was out. That's why they let him dangle a few days. I'd worry about the Pen's future first Jeems.

Yes, I agree with your Snider comment, but Snider so far has let Hexy do it his way for the past 14 months. This is very positive development. And whoever the coach is, playoffs will be there next year, BOOK THAT...YInzer.

While and you and the test of stepford Penguan fans cry over obstruction, referees and Shero...............

Flyers drafted 6 last year, moved a bad contract in Hartnell to clear some future cap space, traded 2 veterans for cap space, signed some lower level guys on the cheao who did make a difference, have a #1 goalie, 10 draft picks this year. I'd say he's done more in 1 year than Holmgren did good in 8.

But lets keep saying he's unproven at GM.

Bill Guerin is your new GM, ha ha ha..... better fold up and move again. If i am a Pit ticket holder, I get out of that loser proposition right away. They ain't winning shit

I'm not saying we're a great team, or even a good team.

But we are better than the Flyers. Long term, short term, present.

We have more cups.

We've won a cup much much much more recently.

We're currently in the playoffs.

You have no argument for saying Philly is better, unless you want to fall back on your "But philly is more consistent in the regular season over the course of X number of years!" BS that only a fan of a loser franchise would be proud of.

But you're not, you only have 1 more cup. I gave you the history, post season and reg season. I do have the arguement, you gave me nothing but boasting. I gave you the all time records. Dude, who tanked multiple seasons to get #1 Pick?? Pittsburgh. Who threatened to leave for KC if they didn't get an arena? PIT did.

Who had the most losing seasons and futility than most teams?? Pittsburgh did.

Bring me some better facts. I can give you the SC theory, yes by the record books it's 3-2. Took Pittsburgh 21 years to win a cup, Philly did it in 7 since both teams came into league. Let's go toe to toe and bash each other up an see who wins

3 > 2
2009 > 1975
1st round playoff exit > No playoffs

Talk about regular season all you want. No one cares about that except the teams that don't have anything else to brag about.

You think people remember who was better in the regular season during any particular year if that team didn't win a cup?

No, they dont.

Championships are all anyone cares about, and the Flyers lose in that category no matter what spin you try and put on it

Keep trying, though!

im not spinning it man. I gave you the 3>2, but you gave the we're better historically, just untrue. 2009 Cup as many NHL fans know, was practically paved by Bettman and his agaeda. But be that as it may. Enjoy the future decades of futility.

Quite sober thank you for playing Ice.

[BethlehemSteel]

Remember this when Detroit was up in the series. I watched it a day later (taped) when out I was of the country.

This shit usually gets a 1 one game automatic suspension next game......GB decided he couldn't let the Pens lose another game and didn't do jack squat. A fucking travesty!!

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBD_QGfQJ-0[/youtube]

I think perhaps the newer NHL officials in the front office refuse to let Pitt get away with favorable officiating anymore. I point to this and all the shit they tried with Philly in recent years, the crying and the whining grew tiresome. Enjoy your karma ......munchers!!!

[jeemie]

2009 Cup as many NHL fans know, was practically paved by Bettman and his agaeda.

Except it wasn't and it's been explained to you multiple times you were in error about the subject (Malkin's non-suspension) that you claimed proved it).

You think if Bettman had an agenda to give his young star a Stanley Cup, he would have stopped at 1?

Having only that one actually makes Crosby's stardom look worse.

Is Sid a star? I think there are 12 players more elite than him. The explanation is horseshit Jeemie. He should have gotten an automatic game. That was the policy then. The first time offender shit was not hammered out until 2011

and you're basing it on the clown justice Colin Cambell? Ha Ha, weak sauce man. Stick with football ok.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_d ... nhl,167172

there is the take from then. Hogwash justice, special treatment of course.

DUMBEST ARGUMENT EVER

[BethlehemSteel]

DUMBEST ARGUMENT EVER

only to Pens fans. there are 29 other fan bases who would agree Malkin deserved a game off the next night especially since 2 other players were given same for same thing in the 09 playoffs.

No it was the policy then, and I linked you to the articles showing it was the policy. Rule 47.22 said, even back in 2008-9, that he was to be suspended "pending a review", where the director of hockey operations could choose to rescind the suspension based on any number of criteria. it wasn't automatic suspension period. It was automatic suspension pending a review.

In that same post-season they didn't suspend Scott Walker for sucker punching Aaron Ward.
