Good signs so far for Flyers

The Flyers have had some lapses - like the late collapse that wiped out a solid performance in a 3-2 shoot-out loss to Anaheim on Saturday - but the positives have outweighed the negatives in their 3-1-1 start.

Go Philadelphia Phillies
Go Philadelphia Flyers!!

They really should be 4-1, were it not for the Flyers giving the game away late in the third, but 3-1-1 isn't bad. Pronger's effect has been evident, with Carle leading the team in points. Richards is off to a torrid start, leading the NHL in goals. Carter and Briere are off to good starts. Giroux and Gagne are a little slow to start, but they'll start picking it up soon. The absense of Betts sucks, cause they miss his PK skills and faceoffs in the defensive zone. JVR had a good first 3 games and will be returning for the game on Friday, so that'll be good.

Emery was great in his first two games, let up a couples soft goals to Pit and WSH, but was solid against Anaheim. The lone, glaring problem has been Braydon Coburn. He's been turning the puck over left and right and it really cost us against Pittsburgh. He left Emery out to dry several times against the Pens.

Ya ya wang and montreal should be winless by the way they played ,but got some bounces that enabled them to win... You can say what if to every team that has played a game this year... The fact of the matter the flys are not 4-1. what if isnt and doesnt change a thing.. The flys were not good enough to put up the 4-1 stat !!! No what ifs or buts about it !!! Maybe if your idol mr.richard would have played up to your all star status that you have given him the flys would be 4-1 But once again he wasnt !

I'm late getting to this, cause i sorta abandoned this post, but I know that saying 'what if' doesn't change anything, but it's only human nature to speculate what might have happened. Everyone and every team does it.

nah im just dishing some insults back to you, calling you a name, cause hey, you've been calling me 'wang,' not giving me the respect of even calling me by Red Wings25. If you're gonna dish out an insult, be prepared to take one in return. I don't need to grow up. I don't need anger management. But I can say and do whatever I want and I'm not gonna take advice from a little prick like you. I'm calling you that cause you're the most irrational person I've talked to and you're impossible to have a normal conversation with.

Look in the mirror...if there's anyone who needs anger management it's you. I think you should actually be locked up in a mental institution, cause you clearly are not a normal person. Just trying to help, prick...

Wow, you beat your wife and kids? All this looking in the mirror (for you) is revealing a lot about you. Maybe someone needs to call the cops on you...i'm currently talking to a man who beats his wife and kids, has anger management issues, needs to be locked up in mental institution, and is very irrational. Keep talking Dev, what other issues do you have, prick?

You're just making it too easy for me, Dev. Everything you assume about me is, in reality, actually what describes you. Every response you make is just revealing more about yourself.

Common trick of a preditor who doesnt know which way to turn,so he just copies a previous description of himself and send it back to his accuser... Wang the only way you can be helped to overcome your beating and abuse of your family members is to admit you have a problem... Now try to dig deep into your sick mind and heart to muster up enough couraged to admit you have a serious problem... There is many institutions that will take you in Wang,and give you the treatment you need to overcome this abusive behaviour.... We are all pulling for you Wang..... Were you mean to animals as a youngster ?? do you feel inadequate as a man ?? Do you have small man syndrome ?? Should we call you little peterwang ??

Wow, more accusations about me, the one you've never met. I don't know where you're getting this 'belief' that I have these problems. This all comes down to your frustration over me actually being able to oppose and disprove your claim that the Flyers are not good and that Richards is a junior b player. Because you couldn't come back with anything objective, you started calling me a control freak, just because i had a different view (backing it up with facts and sources). Is this what you do to other people you talk to? Do you make up things about them, even though you don't even know them personally? How can you make those claims about me, telling me to get help, when you've never met me, you don't know me, and when I've been calm the whole time. Sure, i've called you a prick, but you've been calling me wang for a long time. I get it...if i call you a name, i've got anger problems, but if you call me wang, it's okay cause you're just an exception...yea, whatever.

I really wanted to have an objective conversation with you Dev, but you make it impossible. If we were to pretend none of this stuff between us ever happened, how would we be able to have a calm, normal conversation about any topic involving hockey?

My my your temper is really getting out of control now wang...try to calm down,I was only trying to help you overcome your anger problem.. And as far as your controlling problem it is quite evedent that when someone doesnt agree with everything you say,you get quite huffy about it... Now quit denying that you dont have a control and anger problem... Just look at your last five posts..... It is quite clear that you DO have issues in the anger department.... hmmmmmmm....

yea BLAH BLAH BLAH...so you have no new material. It doesn't matter how I respond, because you're just gonna say the same thing. See, you want me to admit to having this so-called anger problem to please you and give you satisfaction, but it's not gonna happen. I have none of these issues that you think I have. I'm not denying anything. I'm simply stating facts. Now, you can keep trying to get me to say what you want, even though it's not gonna happen, or we could go back to talking about hockey...it's one of those two, cause i'm not gonna give you the response you want.

You're not gonna win with me. So quit trying.

Wang it is impossible to help you with your problems ,if you continue to deny that you have none.. You must be a legend in your own mind if you think that you dont have these problems.. The proof is in your posts.... You would be a much better person if you could come to the point of admitting it and dealing with it... but it is up to you of course... Just trying to help...
