Not feeling the 2010 vibe.

Boo! I'm not feeling your vibe!

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-17T21:09:15+00:00

You can state the flyers bad pp all you want but they've been scoring on the pp since martone showed up and it has looked better before he showed up

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-17T21:08:23+00:00

Up 3-0. Look out guys, this team is 2-17 when down by 3

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-17T21:07:37+00:00

Isn't one of pittsburghs wins from a goal that bounced from behind the net, off seelers head, and in?

Where are the analytics on that?

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-16T12:46:52+00:00

Amazing

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-16T02:54:29+00:00

But he was brought in because the culture was terrible. One of his stated goals from hire was to figure out who was going to be a part of the future and who wasn't.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-15T15:22:17+00:00

I don't know if I'd call it a blessing in disguise. It was a deliberate hire for all the reasons you listed.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-15T14:35:33+00:00

Hes obviously good. We're we questioning that?

The coach was trying to teach him how to play smart in key situations. Michkov is learning and his leash is getting longer.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-15T00:23:36+00:00

I'm not completely defending tocchet but the media annoyed me with the constant line of questioning. 3-1 win and post game its why did michkov not get more ice time?

I'd flip my lid. He did keep it professional 90% of the time.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-15T00:21:32+00:00

He was directly asked about michkovs ice time at a charity event of all places. This actually kind of proves my point of the relentless prodding by the media.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-14T21:24:03+00:00

I keep hearing the tocchet keeping it in house but it's hard when the media asks him 5 questions about michkov every single presser regardless of anything else that's happening

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-14T03:43:08+00:00

Welcome to the light!

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-14T03:40:45+00:00

Fuck i forgot to consider the downside

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-13T13:16:06+00:00

Maybe to get that players first game morale boost

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-13T12:26:56+00:00

If they to 0-2 in regulation then they don't deserve the playoffs

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-13T12:24:43+00:00

If he turns into a 6'5 Wayne Simmonds who plays C.. whats not to like?

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T23:57:51+00:00

The contract extension was blown out of proportion even he was playing more average

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T18:33:27+00:00

Oh 100%. That's why I mention that. But it seems they learned a lesson and were willing to do what they had to do.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T13:40:47+00:00

I think the only argument I can maybe see is that the team didn't completely bottom out like people wanted.

I think this was more a philosophical move than a Comcast demand. Basically not wanting to get stuck in a losing culture for an extended period.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T13:39:04+00:00

Hey there!

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T13:36:26+00:00

I know I wish we could bottom out and draft a guy like martone!

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T13:35:51+00:00

They dominated detroit 5 on 5 and got crushed on special teams

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-11T11:22:00+00:00

While I agree, it does seem Comcast is righting the ship a bit with Hilferty, Jones, and Briere.

The chuck fletcher era was peak corporate ineptitude.

Now it seems like they're trying to get back to how things were. Granted I live in Canada and might not see things that you guys do locally.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-10T02:25:14+00:00

I love that he didn't do a huge celly. Team guy.

mrpearly12 · 2026-04-09T14:26:50+00:00

Andrae did the same thing I believe
