Thanks for reading , should be interesting to see how Fletcher handles the rest of the off season from here on out. I think he’s doing a pretty good job so far. Ellis is a bonafide top pairing defenseman and that was a need they really had to fill. I get not wanting to lose Myers or Patrick but you have to give to get in the NHL. If Fletcher can make a few more savvy moves this off-season I think we’ll see the team be a real contender next season. Let’s wait to see how the team shapes up on the ice this upcoming season before we make any judgments though it’s hockey so anything can happen right. Thank you again for taking the time to read and comment it means a lot !

After 44 straight years as a Flyer’s season ticket holder, I just don’t see any optimism in this team’s future. Fletcher is a passive, easily conned GM, who gets crushed by his peers and this team seems to lack the fire it was known for for so many years. It’s captain is just an average player, collecting a big paycheck and team chemistry is non existent. I find no reason to pay for high priced tickets to watch paint dry. The worst part is that the Flyers are no closer to a Cup now than they were four decades ago and may actually become just as horrible as the team Chuck Fletcher left in decay in Minnesota, before coming here.

You know, for the price the Flyers are charging to go to their dull games, I can take three or four nice tropical vacations. If Fletcher isn’t gone by the time my next Flyer’s season ticket invoice comes, I am out and headed to the Virgin Islands instead. It will be a very easy choice to make. -Gregg Lorenz. Bucks County
