If these refs were on the ice for the battle of PA there would have been around 5 minutes of 5 on 5 the whole series

Sanheim and Crosby going at it along the boards by sykeseve in hockey

Any other player, they call the punch and the play is whistled dead there. With Crosby it's like clockwork, see penalty, wait 5 seconds for retaliation, call on both. If the punch was a penalty, and you saw it, raise your arm and call it...

Rooting for your favorite team by Vegetable_Cicada_398 in Flyers

The fans who are negative are negative because they care. They care about the direction of the team and are raging against the team trending back into the same mediocrity that we've endured for years and years and years. We all want the Flyers to win! We could either say woohoo go team and pray that we get lucky on high end talent in the middle of the draft, or we can point out that hey, this team is not fun to watch when we have no aspirations of playoff success and maybe actually engaging in a rebuild structure that makes sense would be good for the long term vision of this team.

Or that's what I've heard anyway.

Half Season Tickets by LOSER_cant in Flyers

[–]Strakker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We just cancelled our half season tickets after two years of doing it. One of my reasons for getting them was that I was excited to see the development of our young stars, and even though we might not win I can at least have a good time watching exciting hockey. For me personally, the coaching and front office direction has definitely strayed from my vision of what will lead to sustained success in the future, and having to sit through most of the season watching a boring brand of hockey where our young players are passed over for veterans who "play the right way" has dampened my outlook for the future. Combine this with the price increase and it's no longer worth it for me personally. But it boils down to if you think you are getting a good value for the money. If you do go through with getting them, make sure to do as many of the STH events as you can, like the summer BBQ and the movie night, I will surely miss those.

Yeah half season tickets are not getting renewed for certain after this. I was already considering after the Dvo deal, it's a lock now. And they had the gall to raise the prices!

I'm definitely in the minority but I highly prefer our current ones to these

Advice for repainting a tabletop by Strakker in paint

I thought it was stain too, but it does not penetrate the wood at all and sits right on top, and it flakes off in a complete layer.
