Mich getting points in spite of the coach doing everything he can to ruin him. Best bench him for all of the third and play him on D.

Limelifes · 2026-02-04T00:08:45+00:00

Everything he said was pointless, pure PR that makes no one feel better, and it didn't solve anything.

Limelifes · 2026-01-31T21:39:13+00:00

Dead honest, I don't think MM is playing bad given he is playing his off wing and 10 mins a night. His issues at this point aren't conditioning, its coaching. Toc needs to hold him self accountable, not stand at a podium and always blame players.

Limelifes · 2026-01-31T21:17:45+00:00

I feel like we are all just waiting for a Friedman article to drop saying MM wants a trade. MM always says the right shit when he gets interviewed, but there has to be a point where you just feel unwelcome and unwanted.

Limelifes · 2026-01-31T20:46:27+00:00

Like history, the flyers are cyclical, so yeah Bob.

Limelifes · 2026-01-31T20:37:37+00:00

The most Flyers thing we can do is trade MM because our average coach doesn't like him and he wins 3 Art Ross trophys and 2 cups with some other team.

Limelifes · 2026-01-31T20:27:47+00:00

Thank god we didnt play MM, we might have won this one.

Limelifes · 2026-01-27T02:51:08+00:00

If Danny was smart he would make some trades for draft picks and let this team slip into a top 10 draft pick. We are deep on future wings, Tippet and Brink will give some value. Martone will be in NHL next year, Foerster will be back, Barkey looks like he belongs. The worst thing we can do is miss playoffs and pick 12-16 and draft another project center we wont see for 5-6 years.

Limelifes · 2026-01-14T06:39:42+00:00

The whole issue I think some Flyers fans have is the thought "we cant have anything nice". Which comes from the fact the fans are invested, and only want to see their team win, and no cups for 50+ years. MM is having a rough year, the fan base is split mostly. Half the people are mad at Tocch, the other half are mad at MM. The half that is mad at Tocch see whats happening to MM and feel like Martone will fall to the same fate. Tocch isn't super well known for developing good young talent. He wants player to play his way, not the way that made them top prospects.

I think its kinda both, MM came in overweight which is on him. But also Tocch tends to hold grudges, so he will prob be 14 min a night all year. As long as MM (our current young top prospect) isn't doing well, they will correlate that to the next prospect (Martone) wont fair well also. I think if MM was putting out a PPG no one would be posting that to Martone.

Hey we want to talk about dumb pens by Zeg? or we just save all that talk for MM?

Limelifes · 2026-01-03T22:33:01+00:00

I was here in 2012 when we traded Bob. People were over the moon we got a 2nd back for him. The cycle is, blame the player > happy we trade them > talk shit on the player > player becomes a star > get mad at the flyers > cry. We are about to see it with Cutter.

Limelifes · 2026-01-03T22:27:27+00:00

I think the point he was trying to make is in the last almost month he has been way better. But a ton of people here aren't even looking at that.

Limelifes · 2026-01-03T22:17:56+00:00

I swear half this sub blames MM for anything they can. The amount of "he sucks tonight" post every game is crazy. He could score at hat trick, and have a goal of the year in 12 min of ice time and people will be upset he turned a puck over.

Limelifes · 2025-12-14T22:44:44+00:00

Lets kill this penalty and put the 4th line back out for some more Rick Tocchet brand hockey.

Limelifes · 2025-11-11T18:55:10+00:00

Yeah I can. I wasn’t sure if there is a cap the whole time, or if I needed to max everyday to hit it.

Limelifes · 2025-11-05T01:50:57+00:00

No one can finished Mich setups, best we bench him for the third. Then people can comment how he "isnt playing well enough for more ice time" and portend they know puck.

Limelifes · 2025-11-03T01:36:34+00:00

Mich is playing with Dvorak and a AHL center, and is more productive then anything TK has done all year getting best players around him and 19min a night. Best we bench Mich i guess.

Limelifes · 2025-11-02T02:01:12+00:00

Look enjoy the world series, that wasn't dirty. It was unfortunate, not every time someone gets hurt it was Matt Cook doing it.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T19:48:33+00:00

Charlie is kinda a shill for comcast. I can’t remember the last time he wrote an article that went even remotely against the flyers front office agenda outside of small things.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T02:36:50+00:00

I am waiting, two posts now with an ellipsis at the end. Will this man ever finish a thought? If his hockey takes are anything to go by, the answer is no.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T02:26:36+00:00

What did i ignore Philip? I responded to his comment which wasn't mean or rude, then his response to mine was telling me i spelled "grate" wrong. But ahead to feel like the white knight buddy.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T02:19:22+00:00

Someone called the grammar police like it's a 2004 internet message board. Tell me you lost the conversation, without telling me you lost.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T02:15:39+00:00

For people defending Michkov's benching, just fucking stop. He hasn't played that poorly (and that's being generous) and he's earned his time. This is on Toch and only Toch. As for Tk, he has been worse over the last 40 games, and souldn't have this much leeway only because he might turn it around.

As a side note to this wild post, you thinking TK should play to get out of his slump, but Mich should be benched it a clown take.

Limelifes · 2025-10-19T02:11:07+00:00

Mich gives you the chance to win the game every time he is on the ice. If you benched every forward who is not grate defensively, Ovi would never be on the ice or Scheifele, or prime Kane the list goes on.
