@broadburnt@TheBeez1588 They HAVE been trying to increase their chances of drafting high. They've been sellers at every deadline. They've loaded up on draft picks. The team overperformed, as most Torts-coached teams do. They obviously value the culture they are building than they do shamelessly tanking.
GM Danny Briere says #LetsGoFlyers have 'no plan' to trade Matvei Michkov.
More on Michkov, how Briere and #Flyers see him @Sportsnet:

@_kyle_frey@letmebefrankbro And then years of bad spending and trading draft picks caught up to them. And he were still are, stuck in an endless post-2012 loop.
“Are fans right to be angry with management for losing Michkov? Yes, especially after the Cutter incident. But the Flyers are confident this is the right move for the long term. Are they right? I don’t know! We’ll have to see!”
**Breaking News** 🚨 📰
From multiple league sources, with the Flyers unimpressive start and internal turmoil, Michkov would likely want a new start elsewhere. He's in the last year of his contract & is a prime trade candidate moving forward. #HockeyX
@ADiMarco25 Why would “changing the financial landscape of the NHL” be an accomplishment?
Congrats, Briere paid above market price through an unsuccessful offer sheet.
Eagles updated draft picks:
🏈2027: 1st, 2nd, Jaguars’ 1st (Jordan Davis)
🏈2028: 1st, 2nd, Patriots’ 1st (A.J. Brown), Ravens’ 2nd (Cam Jurgens)
🏈2029: 1st, 2nd, Jaguars’ 2nd (Jordan Davis)
That’s 10 picks in the first two rounds over the next three years.
@TheLibertyYell Same exact playbook we heard in the playoffs too.
“Foerster looks bad.”
“Well he just came back from injury, okay? Give the guy a break.”
“Well then why is he playing if it’s impacting his game so much?”
The Flyers will gladly take your praise and your money.
They can also take a a couple hundred fans pooling together their money and having fun with asking for a better product.
Pearl clutching over this fundraiser is pathetic.
To expound on the “Fire Tocchet” plane banner, it just strikes me as a shitty thing to do to a person
I get people are upset that the Flyers are losing & Michkov isn’t playing 25 mins/game
But to make it such a public personal attack on Toc is unnecessary. The guy has a family
@SnowTheGoalie And this clip cuts off before Ant argues that Flyers were in on Larkin and others only because they wanted to show the league “they meant business” and to “create a national profile.”
This is either the most contrived BS imaginable or the Flyers are in over their heads.
@kevnavz1@phillygator1986@AntSanPhilly It’s so backward. Can’t do the basics of the rebuild because it might slightly hurt your reputation years down the line (Completely theoretically)
@justinghockey I’d argue moving on from TK would finally be a step towards level-headedness.
Re-signing him and thinking it made sense to keep him was the dysfunctional choice. And then cornering yourself into thinking you can’t even ask him about waiving is even more dysfunctional
I love the Flyers but I really despise some of our fans. Imagine donating money to a banner that says you want to fire a guy who spent years playing his heart out for our organization. Embarrassing. #letsgoflyers
@DanKnightly It’s incredible listening to him. Guy who has been wrong about everything for multiple regimes is once again making excuses.
Colorado took 10 years to rebuild? And what have the Flyers done in 10 years?
Can’t trade TK because it will look bad? Give me a break
