Being a Philly sports fan really is something
Not even sure why I watch sports sometimes lol
FIRE FLETCH… wait…
What happened???? I thought we were the 5th most improved team ???
40-31-11 is still on the table
Those last couple minutes. Oof.
Fuck the pens
I admire anyone else who took time out of their Saturday to watch this game.
Danny Briere: we’ve got a long way to go
Gotta love the Capitals and Pens running up the score of games at the end as a big Fuck You
Went from being a one goal loss to an absolute pile on. You hate to see it
Gosh I hate crosbust but he looks so hot
This is the first game I’ve watched in weeks. Probably not gonna tune in the rest of the season. See ya next year.
The league rigged the Crosby draft to save the Penguins. It’s time for the league to rig the Bedard draft to save the Flyers.
Briere willed those last few goals in. As a big Steve Miller Band fan, he knows you’ve got to go through hell before you get to heaven.
Good loss
Was on a flight from 3:30 and just landed. Normally I would be furious to miss a battle of PA but I was borderline ambivalent about it and after seeing the predictable score line downright happy to miss it.
Save us, Daddy Danny.
Rebuild starts now
Can everyone just please stop going and watching
Looking at this loss it was hard to find players that the Flyers can build with. Sanheim looked really bad, yet he’s signed for EIGHT YEARS! Hayes looks really disinterested. York didn’t have his best game, Farabee and Frost get pushed off the puck so easily… It’s tough to find players outside of Tippett that really look like pieces. Even Hart looked really exasperated at the end. Going to be really tough moving forward.
I don’t see how Torts keeps his job after this game. Demoralizing loss, sorry boys.
A really tight game for 92% of it turned into a blowout in the last 5 minutes. This team always finds a way to be fucking miserable to watch.
Glad I missed it and I hate to say that but that’s where we are now
Losing is good, but not like this.
…not like this… 😢😢😢
What in the wide wide world of sports is a “Kieffer Bellows”?

◥⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙◤…
we have 1 of the first 64 picks in the draft
Just gotta say. Props to the Pens fans at the game. Everyone around me was very pleasant and friendly.
They must feel sorry for us
Buckle in everyone, it’s going to be like this for the next 5 years.
Kinda don’t care that it ended up a blowout. Got the needed loss and 7/8 of the game coulda gone either way. That the wheels came off the bus at the end? Meh. The Pens know how close they were to losing this one. I consider it a win win. Fuck the Pens.
Jesus we fucking suck. We’re just so linear in our play, single minded decision making and zero creativity on the ice. Despite Tippet (and subtly Cates as well, he is gifted AF) we’re just so talentless it’s actually unreal that this is our product that’s maxed on the cap.
