But, I fully expect the Flyers to win the season series. We played well against the Rags last season with an AHL team. And, they were also some of the dirtiest, gritty games I saw. This year is only gonna be better.
The same hate that is spilling towards New York is spilling towards Philly. Just because our teams have money (in terms of both cap rooms and the pocketbooks of billion dollar organizations) and actually have a commitment to winning is no reason to talk ****. Hate the Rangers or Flyers for the traditional reasons... not because they give a damn about winning.
None of these recent signings were for the league max so, therefore, teams must have chose not to continue bidding for these players. It's as simple as that.

Are you guys gonna sign a tough guy for Colton Orr to use as a speed bag again?
