Well this is going to be the Flyers year. I dont expect them to win everygame but will be dissapointed if they lose more than 15,Flyrers-Rangers wednesday night on OLN.
Flyers
- Thread starter Peace4u
- Start date
Flyers will have a problem. Defence too big, too old and too slow for the new NHL. If they keep calling the infractions all year like they have in the pre-season you will need a moble defense. My 2centsPeace4u said:
flyers have better odds of doing well this year than most. many expect them to finish in the top 3 spots in their conference.
however, regarding the leafs...from analysts around, even pro-leaf ones, they feel the leafs are at a long shot to finish as a +500 team.

They look good on paper but I still question there goaltending. If Esche comes around and turns out to be a tier one goalie...watch out ! Too much talent on this team and there very well coached.

as if pittsburgh should have better odds or even odds as san jose to win the cup... look at how strong san jose is. pittsburgh, though they will have an exciting year, don't know how well they can play together yet...
Don't look now........but looks like that big huge defense of Philly just isn't mobile enough for the new NHL.
Forsberg looks like a great Aquisition!
shoulda made a bet with the concierge dude at the airport.. he said Forsberg will be injured tonight... I said I bet a big leaf player has a better chance of getting injured tonight... sorry it was at the cost of Sundin... ouch that's gotta hurt! but, Mats is a big boy- he'll shake it off!

actually, i thought most terbites said before the season started that flyers were going to be very, very weak this year.
my prediction is toronto 5 philly 3- and if so, we'll get more leaf fans speaking out here on terb...(like after every leaf win)

I am watching the game right now. Boy I thought Toronto was slow. Flyers move with the speed of an iceberg. I say Ottawa, Montreal then Philly in the division in that order 1; 2; 3.

well, atleast when toronto plays calgary on january 6... Phaneuf has wasted no time in knocking around some of the league's biggest players... did anyone catch his big open ice hits on Patrice Brisbois and Pierre Turgeon? and then his big time crunch on Marek Svatos when he caught Marek cutting in from the boards with his head down near the flames blueline... what a bone cruncher...
