M-E-E-E Hammer's fucking swinging and we're packing it up It only got saves for the burning baron Coming out the fog throwing orange in white The broadly law boys coming up white We're reaching the doom We're in the mountain, we can't be moved We're the straight hits up What you gonna do? New cap cuts, you'll regain it's here TK, you're beating your hair De-Lory A is here for a fight New era of orange water Wow Alright, everybody welcome to Brother Leaf But here it is, Thursday, January 15th, 2025 Though I'm almost positive we're hearing this on Sunday But it doesn't matter because time is made up
It doesn't however, we're watching the flyers Get there just shit rocked by the penguins For what would be their 4th consecutive loss in a row I believe Maybe 5th consecutive, I think that Maple Leafs game was lost too wasn't Yes, this will be the 5th 5th consecutive loss ever since they beat the ducks And got smushed by Tampa Everyone said ahh, it's just Samerson They'll be fine And then Monday rolls around and they get destroyed Again, this time with a Vlodar in net Yeah, they go into Buffalo And just get destroyed and Vlodar gets hurt They start with Earth in the night He allows 3 goals, they throw coal saw in there And flyers had a Half decent second period We're in the second emission right now But alas, penguins have the last laugh And tack on their 4th of the night And yeah, shit's great Shit's doing great around here Next back Nick, how you doing? I'm good, Dan, thanks for reaching out to me yesterday I mean, we love to be miserable
When we talk about the flyers and they've given us a lot of misery Over the last week So I'm excited to be here with you And just tell everyone we told you so You sound sick as everybody else I am sick I am actually I sicked out work tomorrow So, yeah We can go all night, Dan About this shit And yeah Where do you want to start the lightning games? The Saber's game? This game? Where do you want to start, buddy? Well, I don't think I've talked about either one of the lightning games yet Not maybe that's not true Maybe I was here with Papa I don't remember, it doesn't matter This is where we excel here talking about the flyers Falling off of a fucking cliff all at the same time So yeah, I said on Twitter I don't know if you saw it or not I felt like those lightning games Would be a spot on Review Remake, whatever you want to call it Of what it would look like
If we actually made the playoffs Which clearly we're not going to now Like that ship is out To me that's exactly what it would look like Is we'd sneak in We'd be facing a far more complete and superior team Get our shit kicked for five games Maybe sneak out of game But to me that's what the lightning games were Was hey, here's an actual Complete team that were actually Missing their top two defenseman And the flyers still Just the flyers got the face They're back up goalie in the second game Didn't matter And of course in the second No, that was the Buffalo game But yes, the lightning game Just showed that We're nowhere near where We think we are, where we want to be And really based on other conversations You got with me, with Papa With uh, frequent flyer guys With Katie Like there is no end in sight Because like we even said a week and a half ago Like we're stuck to all these guys
Yeah, you know they had to rush to re-sign to Vark The fucking Brear was out there talking about We're not going to rush to re-sign Zegris A week after they just Fucking brought back Christian to Vark On a five year gone Like it was so critical that the Vora comes back But like we're going to take our time with Zegris I realize the UFA are a difference between the two But it's also fucking January so it doesn't matter Like, uh, I don't know This is, uh, uh Those lightning games were The ones that were going to test them Shocking And they got They got even two in the first one and then five one in the second game They're on Monday And? But yeah that was the test of like, you know, it's one thing When you beat up on You know, the conucks and the ducks And you know, uh, these teams That aren't it Uh, but when you're facing A long time play-off team Who happens to be on a heater on top of that You know, it's the proving ground
And they couldn't do it And the Sabers have also been relatively hot lately hot lately they trounce the flyers without much of a with that much of a fight and God I've not watched like a ton a ton of game this year in terms of sitting down eyes on the TV focused on it But it might take away constantly is it boars the ever loving shit out of me watching this team attempt to play hockey Oh, I've the last two hours. I'm sitting here just being like, oh Let's go Castle here and we've been saying it we've been saying it all year is This style of play isn't sustainable and now it's blowing up in their faces You can't play this passive like low risk low reward hockey and expect to Being good standing and when when when all the when all the dust is settled like it's it's it's it's it is blowing up in their face It's spectacularly and what did I say we can a half ago if If damn blood arcates hurt they are fucked. We both said it, you know
We saw it again Swiss cheese Sam here tonight. Well, they have to three goals. I don't blame him on the first one But yeah, watch them play hockey though, Dan. It's it's a chore even when in winning games except for the duct game. It was a chore like it's It's a very vanilla style of hockey and His over reliance on the fourth line and making Mitch gov is whipping boy and Watching Travis connect me stick is dick in the in the outlet like game after game. It's like That for it. Did you see that fourth goal? That's our connect me had had time to make the play held all know it stripped of it goal like it's just I'm so tired of watching these guys man like it connect me Kataria be Kataria. He they always track like the fastest guys out there and their speed burst and isn't that like Kataria has to be the average slowest guy out there. He just has to be he is painful to watch
Don't be one of the slowest in the league at this point. That's what I mean in the entire league Kataria has to be The slowest player. He he is Absolutely painful to watch and he ain't going anywhere Yeah, no, he's here for the rest of time. I believe he said Samerson is the lowest eight percentage among qualified gold tenders as well right now, which is I can see that fucking Fantastic. Yeah, when they were going on here in the second period like all the flyers They said shot like shot like Not shots on goal just shots shot attempts and it was like 24 to three one point. It's like what does it fucking matter if Both teams still have one goal after all those attempts and then you give up a late one anyway thanks to your Leader in the room Travis connect me like Don't fucking matter like it's just It's it's painful to watch man and it's and and When it's all said and done. It's all the same shit. We've all been talking about here as members of brotherly pod is
It's the same guys man Yeah, it's a you know the power play is nonexistent Their offense in general is is mid their penalty kill was falling off a fucking cliff over the last month or so Maybe it's six seven eight weeks now whatever it's been with somebody said they'd have 57% rates since the new year or something like that I know it as fuck. Yeah, it's dipped pretty badly. I mean it was top five one point now. It's 20th or something Like that's bad. That's real fuck a bit Yeah, that power play like when you're starting Christian DeVorack on the first unit as your center when he's a career Depth Center. Well, that's that's not a good sign. He's the four line center. Yeah, which yeah, it's Until they properly strip it down. We're gonna be saying the same thing year after year To another you know five years at least
23 ranked offense Their power play currently is 28th And their penalty kill is 19th Okay, which they gave up two power play goals in the first period so Yeah, not sure if this is a up to date with this game or not. So I'm could be Well, that's what they said when they yeah, it could be could be at when this game ends everybody that could be even worse because the Third period here starts in three minutes and 38 seconds and counting It can only get worse from here Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's bad And it's all the shit that like we all knew was wrong going in. Yeah I just Daniel so negative Daniel so negative No, why was just right again? No The I saw something like on this day
It was like ghost blasts in a power play. Well, it was 10 fucking years ago was 2016. God That was even though that was like the last like Flek of fun. We've had is even 10 years ago pretty much. Yeah Yeah, we're negative. You're so negative Possibly keep pointing out like the short-sighted decisions the painfully obvious faults It's not even like hot takes. I'll just tell you what the fuck's wrong here. No, it's not Daniel everything's fine And then in games like this the last handful games when shit does start going wrong their first real, you know Consistent struggle this season everyone's on Twitter just losing their ever loving shit The exact same things that they were you know accusing me of being negative about a month ago They're all like oh my god. Just team sucks. Oh, they're more negative than I ever was Yeah, but you know, that's just just what it is and I think yeah, I remember we can have go and we spoke There was a few Catery a holdouts aside from the
Access journalists. I don't think there's any Catery a holdouts anymore. I think it's safe to say they're out there They're all they always will be looking out of the fucking woodwork there in the Extreme minority. I think Everyone is over Catery a at this point as well. We all should be you know It's been since 2011 he's been here so Yeah, yeah, there it is Yeah, right there buddy Jesus. Yeah I've even come back. He's been here. This is 10th or 9th season 10 He's so bad out there Yeah, and we gave him and Briar get said here you go stick around some more Eight by eight or whatever the hell it was I mean, and if I have to watch Travis say in high be set up with a beautiful pass as he pinches in from the point and Missed in it a mile wide. That's another guy. We're stuck to it's it's how does Canada not have seven better defense been than Trevor say in high
Oh, he's gonna get maybe one game in the round robin and that's it He's not gonna he if I'm sure Canada will make the metal rounds. He's not gonna see any time like you know You don't have anybody better than Tan on At all and all of Canada you can't find Seven better defenseman Well, he's one of eight This is what I mean like he you're not gonna see him like he's probably that or case somebody gets hurt, but yeah, even then like You know the flyers have 52 shot attempts, but 21 shots on goal. That's a lot of black shots at missing in that they just showed that Yeah, don't you love it like national high Nationally televised game tonight and they just come out two penalties in the first four minutes And they're down to not take a three seconds into the game their first fucking penalty. Yeah I All that being said, I feel like the A lot of penalties on both teams were really weak in the first and then the referee's kind of swallowed their whistles in the second period, but
Still don't matter like they're just bleeding goals and when you're only legit offensive threat is Zegress You're not gonna win much anymore because you just got to shut Zegress down because when is the last time if ever Have you seen Travis Kineckney like string a bunch of good shifts together go man Kineck? He's really out there like tearing up this period like never Never you know No tack on his secondary assists somehow and call it a day rest of his points and that's it Yeah, they're screwing everybody Yeah, they're This team kind of sucks. I don't know if anybody's caught on to that. Yeah, but Dude, I said on Twitter too You can you let me know this if I'm like you said Brear mentioned all not in a rush of science eagres if I'm Zegress I'm not a rush to stay here
theoretically truly Everybody stays here it's like hotel California once you stay you can never leave. Yeah. Oh Big save by Skinner Yes, you could check out, but you may never leave Something like that hotel hotel fill it out with you That's the end of the episode Do you like these penguins third jerseys? I don't care for the jerseys. They're rather boring, but I do like the uniform as a whole Yeah, I like a I like the shoulder patches with the igloo and Not to the old bar nice playing obviously and I like a yellow jersey. I'm weird like that I've got several of my collection including the poo bear Yeah, I got the poo bear You have a poo bear with a name on it though, don't you sir get gone char. Oh
Mine's blank and I have David Creechies a reverse retro The way that's poo bears. That's cool Almost five to one Pittsburgh God Who in the hell? Oh, Barkey this guy fucking I got up. Who's that sealer? Mitch go Mitch gov just fought for Denver, Barkey, huh? He did. Hey, you got to do something. I appreciate that That's the way to get Rick talk of the dickhard right there. Oh, I could I could see him sport some wood from here Hey, you know what Mitch cov I think he's been relatively dog shit this season a lot of careless stickin fractions To me that's cool like I only care if you get pummeled You just flotched your hundred three pounds twenty-year-old get hit pretty hard and you still don't want argue a fucking dick that team role Yeah, here's the hit
Clean hit clean it but he pops right up You're fucking jacks ain't I even he's paying playing for the fucking penguins what I saw that I saw that on Twitter like oh and They have to play hextal fucking a hextal draft pick is still around news in the organization seeming the angeler now again I did not know he was currently in the NHL I wonder did hexel bring him over there when hexel had his reign of terror Yes, like got to get my guy The flyers didn't sign him and they drive I love that You notice nobody has hextal that's their bgm anywhere that's Mitch cops first career major penalty everybody 1828 here left in the third still four to one. I think they called the instigator because here comes the aggressive sit with them They did they called the instigator what that's is that not the worst penalty in in the sport Well
Here comes five to one. I'm sure This Pittsburgh need a power play did they have to do that Have you heard any rumors of whether they're gonna buy your cell or do anything? They're probably ditching Risto provided. He's not hurt again. That's another thing too like he's that guy's always fucking hurt Yeah, he's he's Falling apart here Yeah, the older he gets, but I mean I can't imagine They're buying and I don't even know who you would go about selling your biggest cell piece was Devorak Who is now no longer gonna get sold So I mean like I don't know grunstrom eyeballs for random picks, but Like what a ridiculous I know I already screamed about it, but like what was the absolute rush to Just kind of with the high stick Well, what was the absolute rush though to
Signed Devorak because he's January, so they just had to get him here That was the given reason by Danny Breer was Yeah, unbelievable You're not there to sign five one. I'm right behind you I'm at 1657 shot Goal. No They cannot Do they were Gast and it's crossbeat. Damn. I should have bet that he was gonna score So I'm like 10 seconds behind you. I stream. I don't know if you stream or not. I'm typically ahead of most everybody when we yeah Watch along there. It's that service electric you got. Yeah Do they were Completely out of gas that looked like they're that looked like the penguins against the writing royals Oh God, that's nothing to like the you you always think like oh who had that failed
Clear that was came your but the failed clear which led to everything else This team makes so many elementary mistakes To sandheim who are you covering behind the net? I think atari was play at a place as well. It's home All around good work boys Five one five one is just the third straight game you're giving up five goals fourth straight game one two one two three four Fourth straight Every game they've lost. It's been at least five there's a seven against a team. Okay, and I've scored two one two one So they've given up five so five ten 15 they've given up 22 goals in the last four games and four two three five six 10 for five against florida against a Calgary rather on the 31st Yep, and they got tagged for another five against the Rangers on the 20th
And against the Sabers on the 18th Yeah, who's that go what's their what's their goals against looking like right now? Where are they in the universe all that team I think was middle of the pack goals against Toyota up penguins cardigan Who's turning it over there Andre turn that over Gold that was all Andre what what what's a meal Andre doing The six goals I Love this team who who is defending this garbage Way more people than should be Where even are the fliers in this goals against where the fuck I Mean if you're a beer Peter beat reporter grow a pair and ask for a socket have they given up Yeah, Emil Andre turned it over there. You had a nice pass out through your winger there and you didn't do it That was terrible by Andre just terrible. There's supposedly 12th in goals against now again
That does not factor in tonight so they're gonna fall down a little bit here, but six goals so that feels that feels high Yeah, so you see it doesn't matter who's in net when you're making Sword boy mistakes Yeah, so now they're out scored 23 to six of her last four games Has Kevin Kerr's blocked you yet apparently he's on a blocking spray. I don't think yeah Is he followed me for a little while and then I said that Yeah, I caught him a bunch of names and he unfollowed me, but I am still not blocked He's the wooden doll that wants to be a real boy. I believe was the thing that eventually got me Not follow there, which I think is fair. I don't know or the man that God drew at this left hand I just did you attempt to uh listen to him and fucking Colby Cullen whatever fuck I
I've heard Colby Cullen a few times this year like talk about like that We don't know what we're talking about his fans. It's like buddy This is the guy by the way that couldn't stay employed by NBC the place that boys tarot hatcher for like 10 years And this guy couldn't make it there Exactly. Well, it's cuz she's pretty. He's fucking. He's a salty idiot. I play one game in the NHL It's like a little tedious goes off. I'm a beer league gold tender. I know all about golden shot that fuck up Yeah, it's like buddy um We might not be Review what's going on the room sure. We might not have the tactical acumen that NHL coach has sure But it doesn't take an idiot to see that this franchise has been stuck in neutral at best for the last 13 years So fucking spare me with the we don't know anything because it's the same fucking players here making the same mistakes and then the same And it's GM after GM Just making horrible decisions and decisions rushing given out contracts the same bad decision like yeah
God, you know, I was thinking about like you look at a team like Nashville We know him very trots took over any of the immediately signs marked or so in Stamcoes And it's like they're both like 40 like long past their prime and it didn't work out and it was a disaster But like at least you tried and you failed in a new way The flyers haven't made an outside addition in like 20 years And keep resigning the same shitty players to long-term contracts and don't fix any of their problems and draft like shit Like through three general managers in 12 years now. They've been making the exact same mistakes With poor drafting with poor drafting. Oh just just I don't know man the um I think Stamcoes if he was on the flyers would be leading the team in goals That's probably true. Oh, that's not exactly staying much these days. No, it's not. Well, they get still bad Uh Charizard leads with 18 right now
Stephen's thumb case Currently has 20 now there you go. Stamcoes would lead the fly Old ass Steve is there so You'd be third in points and first in goals It's unbelievable back to back nights. You're on national television and you just get the doors blown off here Just just pathetic man. Just like every time you think this team hits a new low It's like oh, you almost had you almost had me this year. You almost had me. I was debating like white We've used the term rock bottom for like 10 years on the show and uh every time we think it can get worse it does Yeah, no This this is all it was gonna take to get out of the playoff chase Yeah, the division is still tight And what did we say last week? It's a mirage. It's absolutely is
I mean if this shit goes on for another week or two. It's it's rough. I mean Hurricanes are in first with 60 islanders of 55 caps with 54 penguins and fliers both of 52 Though the penguins are gonna 54 by the time this game is over Devils at 50 blue jackets at 47 rangers at 46 so everyone is is right there all it takes is you know a few wins and a few losses to dramatically shift to the landscape here Well, they face the Rangers on Saturday, which is gonna be the toilet bowl because the Rangers are also Spiraling right now and then they have to do a big trip They're at they're at Vegas loss at Utah loss at Colorado big loss. So they're gonna get fucking destroyed coming up like they're they're just I was wrong. I thought at New Year's they'd be under 500, but I still think When the seasons over they'll be under 500 Now there are 22 15 and 8 right now 22 16 and 8 if you want to just call this one a loss so
Technically below 500, but above hockey 500 and so I'm For a little while. I mean at one point they had the lowest Regulation wins in the leak. Yeah I mean the the writing was on the wall man like there were Still of the lowest The underlying numbers were not good for us No, you just can't you can't have a non-existent power play and now a non-existent penalty kill Any team of five on five doesn't score your team five on five is pretty sad And you have a coach that's setting all your players up to fail and your goaltending is a miserable disaster You know, it's just This entire thing all the overtime losses and shootouts and all this stuff and even the overtime wins And it's like that's great now you can drag it to overtime, but you know, are you actually How many games this year did the flyers dominantly win? I can think of three now three I can think of three
like This is the kind of shit that yeah, it may Get you to a playoff spot, you know, we're only 45 games in the season. I think this is 46 tonight So, you know, there's there is time giving out tight the division is to turn it around but You're gonna go in there and face Tampa or Carolina or in a Montreal or Detroit or whoever the fuck at this point, you know What do you think's gonna happen here? You think you have a chance if you clinched the second wildcard spot and face Tampa in the first round We just learned that's not gonna work Not not even close and like you said they'll probably run it back because there's not much to move anyway Not particularly no They're just showing all these penguins goals and chances and just help or leave the flyers are set up in their own zone like god There was talk about today on the old twitter about Rick talk at being a one and done
I'd like that. No, I would like it I don't think it's gonna happen I think we he's here for like five years because he's a former flyer. So of course he's gonna be but And firing would admit that they made a mistake in the first place, which they would never do but Yeah, this guy I was not a fan of the hiring at the time and every game that passes. I am Less and less amused Got a little run a fucking team. He may be a decent assistant, but like Jesus tap dance in Christ He is not a hard you had nine fucking years over two teams of history to pull from and it's the Same thing. He never had any fucking offensive success with Vancouver They never put any shots on goal. They played this fucking even worse style than John Torturella did like Why why all because he's a former flyer and he can sit and come back and Pandered to the people from you know 1985 Why why not all the coaches that moved teams this year you could have had any fucking one of them and you picked god damn Rick
I don't know. I feel it's like some so much Because she was watching him and fucking 1985 It's the only people are like Rick talking So you're I was born. It's good year Yeah, there's just there's Who are they gonna like I say yeah keep losing so like Hmm no So Brear has no inclination of false hope just just Sell sell sell I don't care if you get a bag of pucks For some of these guys they gotta go they gotta go What have we said to it's a team full of Robbins there's no there's no Batman out there If no one even Seagrass Seagrass ain't no Batman here we go here. It's just the seventh one. That was it off sides
They were thank for the rush of days. There's no there's no Batman here No nothing close And the Robbins we have are the Robbins from like the 1960s show where it's like gee will there's that man That's the problems we got out there Uh It's so bad What's ice time looking like tonight who who who are they uh who are they fucking I'm sure yeah now watch watch this right Mitch Cobb took the instigator and they scored on the power play instead of being happy that he stood up for Barkey talk It's gonna spin and be like well. They can't be taking the penalties Well, he's only played nine minutes and 56 seconds Which is only above uh Ables and Hathaway
Urson was pulled 11 saves on 14 shots Colossal was at a 14 saves on 17 shots I I don't know it sounds very first and although the first one really wasn't as fault, but Yeah, it's just I did see on Twitter that Vlodar's injury is not long term It sounds like neither one of Risto or Vlodar is long term Breer. Uh, yeah Breer Bobby Brink got put on IR exclusively to recall Colossal because Vlodar isn't actually heard And so it doesn't seem like anybody super long term the turret right now Which Make of that what you will, I guess The rush for the R back early and then we'll get hurt and be out for the rest of the season Yeah, which is uh something they like to do here I'll show the penguins here have projected 52 million dollars in cap space. No
The cat one's gonna be 104 next year 104 million And the projected cap hit is 52 So the penguins are a good spot to like, but there's no free agents even the penguins they can't go out there and get free agents Oh, I might have misread that but Let's keep over yet. No, Christ, I'll have with you the third yet. Holy shit. When's the mercy rule? Yeah, right They scored a touchdown. Can we just call it a day Even if these injuries aren't Long-term one of my even talking about like they're they're fucked All the young Gordon Oh fliers are coming back Was that Nick's sealer what I got I got Michikov Juleson Barkey Sealer goal nice passing play very nice passing play There's that Nick's sealer highlight real goal once again. Yeah
I like seeing Barkey and Michikov out there together. It's just unfortunate. They have the slowest player and league in between them They have to put Kataria there, yeah Where's there one sea? Where's Christian Davorak? What's he doing right now? Suckling Trevor's egress somewhere is my guess It's not a point for Barkey He um nice shot We'll be back in the fucking press box at no time. Yeah, very nice shot Flyers lines Davorak Rebenkin Kineckney what Xerous Kate's tip it Barkey Coots Michikov Grunström Abel's halfway. Oh boy What the fuck what are we doing with our lives? I go figure the two goalscores and I hear apples and the sealer That sounds about right Is it Nick's sealer heels to still here forever two more years beyond this god
I think with a fucking no trade clause Oh, shit. I just can't believe they can't find someone in In the system that come on the fames that can play over halfway to give to give the offense a jolt I mean they could they just don't want to. Yeah, say thing about Abel's you know Abel's score tonight. I don't fucking care That guy gets trapped in his own zone all the time I think I think it's very lying back out there again I'm pretty sure Lane Peterson is on any chill contract. They could call him up Mm Yeah, sure is What a play. Oh, I couldn't be finished. They got bump. That's boarding. Thank you. We're really sure bump is hurt. At least banged up
We're shards still down there they could call up Hey Anthony we're shards. We're always call him up Yeah, he's a he's a quick little guy He's playing at the spangler cup this year Oh representing Canada. Yeah I wouldn't mind Anthony for sure getting another look and the players that aren't good enough to make the real Olympics Yeah Dude let's hang get in the box. He's a rat. I hate latang That's kind of a weak all I could see what he's saying. Yeah, but you did have numbers They don't want you pushing guys into the boards when you got numbers and you're looking at numbers Mm There's Devorak out there in power play one losing the face off again Devorak tip it york
The drysdale over there and connect me Yeah, drysdale That's the thing they kept pointing out in the first period like dry I still have so many chances to shoot and he doesn't Yeah, I shot right on kiwi shoots all on right, but I'm lagging behind you God fucking power play So do they miss the net so many times they're puck retrieval's bad ad It's a it's a like we said last week. There's no power play quarterbacks on this team Where's rocky Thompson when you need him See like oh my god They can't even string three passes together Why is Noah Kates on the power play Because they have nobody dude that's what I'm like that's what we're saying I mean that is the answer, but like There's got to be somebody I would put out there like years ago a mat read was out there. It's like why the fuck is math read out there
Oh Christ that read back in the day Here's the puck down low where it seat like just a hopeful blind no look pass to the slot to nobody Oh So you're here gonna dump it in out man on the puck And it squirts out Pittsburgh is gonna clear yep It is so bad You see I'm can enter the zone or what a surprise and that kills the him however Woo-hoo for what three for thirty three now I believe in their last Yeah And the power play goal is eager scored was garbage time. Yeah Like
Like there's no way you would you would hope you would hope that's a trip Here's another pap like I'm in the fire so not gonna do anything with But you would hope that Briar looks at this streak because I don't care if it's their first big losing streak in a season It's the usual suspects. They're still on this team. You would hope he realizes his job is far from fucking over And a lot of these guys got to go You would think But everyone's in a contractor is just what are they gonna do? They're gonna not resign Bobby Brink and let Marton show up and call the summer Yep You run everybody back because everyone's under contract. What's um, that's a good trade biotically Hey Oh, do we got a biotool on a puckpedia here See why fucking hats go away and they look before I glossed the face off and the bang was cleared the zone
Sorry buy out Uh What do we got here dude the flyers have eight power play goals on the entire season what They just showed it on the bottom of the screen. They have eight power play goals all year I have to work backwards you have to buy this year out first God shit. It's gotta be easy ready to do that shit Ah You know buy out cost Signing bonus total salary base Um, so
He would be Making 6.5 6.7 6.7 6.7 that drops down to then half a mill for four years beyond that So they'd be saving about a million dollars for the next four years with the only about half a mill on the books until 2034 I say do it. That's that's not I mean, that's not good, but given the cap rising that's not bad I can again like we said They would never didn't know though Captain Sean Cateria. He's the greatest hockey player He's in so much better shape than Matt V Mitchkov. He's who came into fucking camp fat now to shape I don't even heard that one yet It's only been something we've been harping on for six fucking months now because Kevin Kerns can't let it go Uh-huh Plus you let him go and there's no centers in the organization Yeah, it's And the free agent pooled And a giant chanko is going to save our asses next season
He's a superstar in the making did the cherry on top here would be Pittsburgh scorer sure hand a goal I can confirm they do not My god one of Who's doing the powerfully now Uh one of uh one of the one of the shitheads I don't even know they're fucking names right now He got Tom Rear's the jevery guy Flyers Coaches I don't know what Todd Rearden's doing here Oh my god, I said Tom Todd Is Todd huh Todd Rearden Jay Veride and Yoro Sikovsky I'm not sure who's handling what but they all suck Yeah, including Rektogget I'm bringing John Torrella to retirement right bring him back just let he and came york fight it out duke it out in the hallways and then just
I do you have to Find some kind of happy medium where you aren't Bringing in these dinosaurs like talk it and and torts. That's their whole gimmick though. I know, but Like it's not you can't try something fucking you have to Bring it a bunch of fucking 60-year-olds who played for this organization once upon a time That's it. I'm sorry if you sign up for season tickets. You're a fucking idiot And I'm sure many people that listen to us don't have season tickets because They come to us for the dandruff party out of Mitchkov. Oh, oh, touch me and appropriately boys Good job Oh That was saucy You put your two young fucking stars together Put your two thumbs me without consent. Let's go man There's out there fucking scoring all
Too little too late A time said before I like Barkey me too. I like him a lot That's good for mitchkov Like get that Weight off your shoulders put the puck in the net You imagine if those two actually had a legit center Imagine if you just played all your good players together all the time That's the problem is you don't have enough good players to go around Yeah That is a rather large problem here Yeah We'll never see Alex Bump No And letchenko socks and they're never gonna anybody from the outside. So, you know Make it out what you will Like what a stupid big brain move
Let's sign the let's let's let's trade away. Let's not draft Zeev bouillon And then we're gonna draft an undersized center because we don't have enough undersized centers on this team to begin with yeah Probably just end up playing the wing won't even be center That's probably what's gonna happen He's like he's yeah, he's gonna be just like fucking Morgan for us Everyone's gonna fucking override him and he's not gonna be able to play center Probably won't be playing in the NHL much at all He's living their own fantasy world of What he could be versus what he actually is Hmm yeah On 120 encountering on my screen one 13 because the we're And Kataria came in off signs I think but then after this Mitch Marner faces his former team. No boy I'm so excited. I now have Not that anyone fucking cares you and I are the collectors here, but I have one of every
um Golden Knights jerseys. I at least one of each. There you go. Oh my third winner classic both of us retro's Got it all I got a couple of the gold ones right now I think that's it at the moment I Payed it pretty Henny I got the one the one point.

God damn it. I know You lost get over it And now they're gonna play the ranger don't saturday both teams are spiraling I'm sure there's a bandage ad will get his two goals against us like he always does Yeah, I fucking because the vintage ad for a nine points and one night It was Wayne gratsky reencarn it fucking once a week when the flyers played the rangers and they just fucking killed him Well, there you go everybody flyers lose sir Sir fourth game in a row they gave up at least five goals. You lost a fucking Stuart Skinner. You lost a Stuart Skinner
Oh Christ and on back-to-back nights on national television you get both raised there's Kineckney fucking loser That's all right if you bought a Kineckney Jersey You're an idiot Oh, yeah, if you have one I'm sorry you have such a big collection. I do not I don't think I've ever owned a Kineck New Jersey Yeah, I may have owned one of his stadium series back in the day, but I don't think I think it's it But if you have like two of his jerseys and you're carrying water for him like you have the third in the home Like I'm sorry You're under the age of 22 because you don't know what a good flyer is Yeah, that seems to be the uniting factor here that Everyone will Jesus everyone who likes his player isn't Yeah, they're all young Like he couldn't tie Simone Gagne's skates That's next a general manager Simone Gagne
Maybe president Yeah, him and Boosh. They'll be the next president vice president Shit Here's a quick game Let's go back and forth name a flyer that wore number 11 go Blair Betts that was gonna be mine Jody Hall Eric Wellwood Oh, that's a good one Did raki wear 11 on one of his returns? I Maybe Let me do a quick google He wore was it 11 or wasn't huh I could type on these fans It's what all people say Sometimes I'm trying to text my wife and there it is He did wear number 11
We're 11 Yeah, when he got traded back here The fuck else was there tonia monday he wore 11 Damn, that's a good pull because the Claire was still here. Yeah Uh People are yelling at their phones right now Was Mike cylinder 11 Oh, that's another good. Oh, I don't even know if you're born yet Was I don't see I was in middle school dude when he got traded here Mike cylinder He played for any other player ever Uh, he was here 97 and 99 so I was I was born I was just a wee little down the flyer fan, but I was born Shit in your riches Uh, I can't think of any warm. I'm totally blanky John sim. I want a John sim game or Jersey so nice
The son of oh Alex did he was 11 wasn't he? 91 I thought oh maybe He wasn't that wasn't one. That was his number. He was a 91 So I need one. I don't know. Do you see a 91? Okay, hold on. I'm googling now Alex dig flyers Uh I'm looking at actually number 19 19. Yeah, it's close. You were 91 on the sense It's what I had in my mind was the sins 19 close enough Great number number 19 That's well wood connecting Dude, he did wear 11 at one point with the flyers Good pull I feel like I owned an 11 dig Jersey one point. That's why that came to mind
I'm just gonna google it now Oh God's if there's any old heads they're probably screaming at us because Don Big Bird Celesky 4-11 Dude, there's not a lot We got connect me reki amanti celesky denine Patrick Sharp he must have done that when I was random call ups because I remember number nine nine Hmm Blair Betts Eric wellwood Ron flock art dank win Mike Cillinger jody whole yeary lethal Steve Casper Len Hockburn Hockburn and void cane. It's not a flyers of 4-11 I would not have guessed most of the older guys, but no
Holy shit someone kill me Looks like some people on twitter now are Hating on a mule and dry after that brutal turnover he had it's where they are because that's the problem here I mean and play who Restolidance hurt who else you're gonna fucking play hmm no ideal son He's playing right now because for still items out. Yeah tonight Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Sit him trade for uh you go as a mule bring him back They could help one of their defensive prospects, but I didn't gonna happen You could give a Christian Kyra shake finally Yeah, right, but nope Why even acquire somebody like that if you're not gonna Yeah, give him opportunity And who'd they send the other way It was a tool Mala
Were you impressed by him and all about half the season both years he was here He played great for half the year and then didn't do anything And then he played like three out of the first 10 games this year and then got traded I like merchants and call time merchants Let him have a minute in the sun Yeah anything But they would never Aid and help starting for the Vegas cool nice seek our boy Carter Hart got hurt good Fuck does neop or something Just in time for the flyers to come to town again next week. Yeah magically He was also playing like shit really yeah I gotta tell you I love Vegas's uniforms Yeah, the gold ones are sick
They're so cool and I love like the white trim on the gloves. It's just Such a nice uniform Hart had a 328 goals against an 871 saber-centage in 12 games. That's not good. No Have Jack Eichel and Jonathan quick gold jerseys Vegas right now I I think by the end of this month the flyers will be looking way up the standings If they keep playing like this they will be next week. Yeah next week's that's That road trip they're gonna go out with three they might beat Utah Utah had a hot start, but Maybe they'll get a point in Utah, but they're not beating Colorado or Vegas Utah is sitting in the first wild card spot in the West right now. Oh, so okay
They may beat the Rangers. That's your best bet But I mean they're probably getting destroyed by Vegas Probably losing to Utah. They're definitely losing to Colorado one way or the other yeah I Don't gamble, but I think I might bet on the Kennedy yet at least three points Fucking Craig Ruby the fire Craig Ruby will Toronto and then the flyers will bring him back for round two You know the reunion tour Said lighting the arena weirder is just the TV being on there's a camera and that's what it was It's a weird angle Maybe not maybe it's extra dark in there. I don't know Chesting you seem like you were coughing a lot less tonight A lot of the a lot of the congestion is gone a lot. That's finally cleared out. So it's just a little Hanging on cough. So hopefully it's still trending in the right direction here, but
After fucking last year on a cough for three months after that stupid chest and second I got the black lung. I'm I'm skeptical of progress yet. Well seen I'm cat jumping in my lap Yeah, I started feeling weird Tuesday night. I had a hockey game and I felt like I was swim Like skating and caught like wet concrete like we got home. I'm like I don't feel so good and I've just progressed so we got worse so Hope they can go back to work Saturday Yeah, you got what everyone else had Yeah, I'll have like that Vomiting that everyone else had just a nasty head cold I just hope my daughter doesn't get it Because whenever either one of us seems to get something she gets in it if you're so bad
Yeah, bring a lot of shit home But Yeah, so the flyers are now bleeding goals can't score The best goal he got hurt and we're stuck to all these miserable players Rinse repeat, huh man? Other than that miss Lincoln. How is the point? Yeah, oh Toronto's one up one nothing more than Riley Well Yeah, it's all I got To do this uh, yeah, I figured now that all the losing was happened. I thought you would appreciate coming back Yes, they're just they're just They're a bed hockey team all the numbers showed it The what they were doing was not sustainable and now we're now it's it's come to roost Yeah, it's it's coming back fucking tenfold now they're just fucked
