Pens Ducked Flyers on purpose. Murray says.

Nice to see Downie and Upshall unscratched from the line up.
Two consecutive games they have played = two wins.
Maybe John Stevens reads this blog.

I know many folks who trekked to Philly today to see Crosby play but he was a healthy scratch and never even dressed for warm ups in a game the Penguins supposedly wanted to win.
I watched all three feeds today of that game: FSP, TSN in Canada and CSN and give credit to the TSN […]

If the Flyers would play that way every damn game, like they did last night against the Devils, life would be better for all their fans.
I was in a good mood last night after their win and jumped on the computer to surf some hockey sites and then WHAM!
F’n Flyers ticket droids sent an email […]

Flyers brass made there own bed. Holmgren and Peter “too many u’s and k’s” Luukko can’t act surprised when these jackass players are done playing for the season in a matter of days.

Newspaper circulation has been on the decline for a decade, largely because folks no longer trust what they read. That’s the death knell for the industry.

Still […]

Come on folks, the Flyers are as done as dinner.
Take the Pens against the spread tonight, they’ll win by 2 goals.

Donate your used motor oil to the Philadelphia Inquirer in care of Flyers reporter Tim Panaccio.
This robot needs greased. And a corner office with a window view of Mars on the Flyers mother ship.
In today’s paper, he says the Flyers are shooting for a sixth seed in the playoffs. He writes:
The Flyers still have […]

This is from today’s Philadelphia Inquirer: Another pissed Flyers fan:

The Flyers’ raising ticket prices for next season goes beyond bad timing, especially for those of us who have the so-called “Ice Row” - front-row seats - and who are soon to be shown the door unless we can handle a 140 percent price increase.Recently, the […]

I ran into Jason Smith at Chickie & Pete’s after the home opener in October.
He was getting some grub and my brother urged me to go talk with him. I’ve never been one of the guys that likes to talk to pro athletes and bother them so I told my bro that let’s leave him […]
