A MONTH AGO you're on here crowing about how we're the 2nd seed in the conference, etc. etc.... and now you're posting crap about how the lineup is ****. team has been bleeding points they should of been getting all year and they've gone down the pooper the last month.
Yes, they surely are inconsistent, like I have been saying all along, for the reason I have been talking about all along.
Can we get back to how Jason Smith is better than Colin White?
If only we can have rational, useful, and informative debate. Instead, people such as myself and Storm and mikedifr spend an inordinate amount of time fending off idiocy.
Idiocy is to be found on pages 3 and 4 of the original GDT, when the Flyers trailed 2-nil and 3-nil.
This is awesome that we won...I uh got a phone call from a friend right as umberger scored the tying goal to go hang out...so I went and watched a movie instead of watching OT...am I a bad person?
Sorry you two didn't get the blowout loss you were hoping for.
Maybe Thursday...
Jeez what crawled up your ass and died?
Anyways, anyone looking for a decent laugh should go read the Sabres board where they scream and cry about the officiating despite the fact that they were on the PP a grand total of 16 seconds less than we were, oh the injustice!
What a crazy game. What a tough loss for Buffalo and their fans...those poor people. Oh well, at least their fans must have left with nice and full stomachs, after Briere made them eat all their "boooooooooooooooos."

If by "friend" you mean "coked up stripper" then no.

they're not inconsistent... they've played the same all year. when it was pointed out they were beating the crap out of the dregs of the league, you made that out to be irrelevant. when the schedule ramped up, they couldn't keep up.... and injuries added to their troubles.
all year they've relied entirely on their ability to out talent teams, or banked on goalies to bail 'em out. they've struggled when they've played specific teams, or been in situations where they couldn't lean on talent alone to win... it's been very consistent.

A healthy Jason Smith, which that one ain't and your boy Stevens is too stupid to give some rest to, is every bit as good as Colin White. If you think Colin White is something truly special, ignorance is the source you're citing. They're both good defensive defenseman with respective strengths and weaknesses. A devil fan said as much to you when you spawned a thread trying to run out that line of thought.
But, please, let us get back to the fact that this roster, which you're now panning (because it serves your purpose of defending Stevens and not crowing about how good a job he's doing), was one player away from being a Cup Contender, in your opinion, a month ago. Your opinion has been anything but consistent... you accuse everyone else of flailing around with their thoughts, when really it's you that has been doing it.
WOW what a game... so happy i was there.. .to see briere and biron beat their former team in such amazing fashion... honestly by the shootout.. even tho we had the ovrtime to ourselves. i thought we was done.. but wow... what a game!!!! thanks flyers.. 2-0 going to buffalo 4 me!! YAY.. more good things to come i hope
Whew!!! I just read through the entirety of BOTH GDT's. My right index finger has no feeling right now from scrolling.
First off, what a game!!! **** YEAH FLYERS!!!!! Way to suck out the poison from the snakebite!!
I really thought we were toast after the second Sabres goal. But NO!! We actually ****ing won!!! FINA-****ING-LLY!!!!!
I'm so happy right now. I love the fact that the internet exists so I can "talk" to my Flyer faithful brethren at 1a.m. pacific. I love the fact that VS. doesn't have a 7 second delay on their broadcast, so they weren't able to bleep Briere saying "Holy ****!". I love the fact that Danny got the GWG, and I love the fact that "Downie did it" said in post #694 of GDT #1 "What if Briere scored the GWG?". I love the fact that Jeff Carter and RJ Umberger had such monster games. I...... I just love right now. Good night all. I love you all.
GO FLYERS!!!
edit: flyersfan420 - I am so jealous that you were there! Cheers!
FYI-Jeff Carter 2nd Star on nhl.com, and, I looked at the standings. If we had picked up even half the possible points during that 10 game streak, we'd be tied for first in the conference right now.

Who is panning? i am just repeating the statements made by you and others here have made about the various Flyers who comprise the Division's best defense and one of the league's top five offenses LOL
If one could go back over the last eight weeks here one could find numbskulls like FlyHigh and others ripping into just about every Flyer (excepting the ones for which they hold Puppy Love) and THEN, after having stated the shortcomings of almost every player, stating that the Flyers have a great roster hobbled by a terrible coach.
