I agree with the Holmgren comment but Giroux is the least of the organizations problemts

Sadly, you maybe right. Hopefully getting back Allison soon will help.

I think the fans are stupid. That’s their operating philosophy.

The other teams brought in a lot of new “TALENT ” . Adds up to the 10 game losing streak . It’s gonna’ be ugly for a while .

This organization is lost and even moreso irrelevant on both the Philly landscape and the NHL front.
There is no recent past, no present and certainly no future. This is the worst this organization has ever been.
Why would anyone remain a fan of this organization. If they closed their doors and ceased operations I doubt many would even care any longer.
The old fans from the days this was a competitive franchise are long gone. I know I couldn’t care less about this organization.

Although you neglected to mention the Flyers picking Provorov ahead of Zach Werenski which was yet another blunder.

Throughout all of these events, there has been one constant here all along……Paul Holmgren.

I’ve said for years now that he has to go. This organization blames coaches for the failures of it’s management.

Holmgren fired Laviolette. Lavi then took Nashville to the Cup Finals. We had Berube as coach. Holmgren fired him. Berube then won the Cup with St. Louis.

Holmgren needs to go. Period.

He can take Giroux the coach killer with him.
