  1. Impossible to celebrate. This is way overdue.

    Do not stop there, gut that shithole.

  2. A long way to go, but I haven’t been able to celebrate anything related to this team in a long time.

    Can we bring out the win bear for this welcomed news?

  3. u/i_speak_nerd your time to shine!

    You’ll, of course, have to upload your resume and then plug the same information into little boxes to apply. But you’re gonna do great!

  4. So they let him run the trade deadline, trot him out for the season ticket holder town hall, and fire him a week later?

  5. Willing to give Danny B a chance.

    Never bought into the notion that stuff was going on behind the scenes to push Fletcher and Hextall to make the decisions they made.

    They both operated in completely different styles, and neither was similar to how some of the older guys (like Clarke and Holmgren) operated the team.

    Whether Danny B stays or is replaced, someone will have a hell of a job on their hands. Sanheim, Risto, Couturier, Hayes. Just some awful, awful contracts to take care of before this team can turn a corner.

  6. Can’t believe they let him stay on through the Trade Deadline thinking he would do something of significance. I’m glad they finally fired him, but it’s another sign of complete negligence by this team.

  7. He was *worse* than everyone warned us about when he was hired. Can’t believe how incompetent and inactive this fucking donut was. Good riddance.

  8. Thankfully they relieved him of all duties, and didn’t just kick him upstairs in an “advisory role”.

  9. EVERYBODY GET IN HERE, THIS IS A GOD DAMNED CELEBRATION!!!

    I know how much more there is to do, but this is the happiest I’ve been as a flyers fan in years, so I’m taking this victory while I can get it.

  10. Now do the rest of the “Mr. Snider” guys, and any and all of whoever is left of the 70s Broad Street bullies in the front office. Clean house of the incompetent good ole boys and let’s get some new blood in here that isn’t trying to resurrect a bygone era.

  11. I will cry a single tear of joy and then continue to cry the regular tears of complete and utter misery.

  12. >In the release, Scott revealed that the organization will be splitting up the general manager and president of hockey operations roles into two separate hires going forward.

    Uh, those two roles should have *never* been combined.

  13. Tinfoil hat time. 4 years ago Dave Scott saw the ripples in the NHL market and knew the Metro was going to be the thunderdome. So what did Mr. Scott do? He hired the worst GM possible knowing that it would tank the team for at least 3-4 years and delay enough that the Flyers would start rebuilding at a time when no one else in the Metro is, thus eventually leading the Flyers to have the dynasty team winning several cups Flyers fans have deserved since the 70s. /s

  14. The immediate post nut clarity that Comcast and the alumni are still in charge of this shit show leaves me empty inside
