Riddle Me This, Bettman?
Look out. The Prospector is out of the box and he just has no idea what is wrong with the Flyers and why they are losing. He just can’t figure it out. It’s a riddle.
For any of you Ed “Riddler” Snider novices, he always starts yapping when he fears the loss of playoff money, but usually has something to say. But this time, he has nothing to say except that he doesn’t know what’s wrong with the Flyers. No kiddies, it’s not the Joker (though it could be). It’s The Riddler……..
Ah, this is part of the problem. The fans understand why they are losing, but Ed just can’t put his finger on it.
Holy Post-Season Ticket Prices!!! Call Commissioner, Gordon Bettman?
Meanwhile, back at the Bat Cave: Boy Blunder John Stevens has a plan to turn things around. (Cue Stevens’ thinking music.)
The Flyers web site reports that Stevens ordered Alfred (equipment personnel) to change every player’s locker location in the dressing room. This is the coach’s answer to getting crucial points in the remaining nine games and solving his team’s moronic play. Swap dressing room stalls. We’re back in high school. Stevens is the poor man’s Gordon Bombay, movie bench boss of the Mighty Ducks.
Stevens calls it a motivational tactic. Fans call it literally rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic … again….
