@Raxiren Brilliant but I still rate 2011 as his pinnacle season.

Djokovic in 2015 big events:
W : AO, IW, Miami, Rome, Wimbledon, US Open, Shanghai, Bercy and Tour finals.
F : RG, Canada and Cincinnati
He skipped Madrid.
The greatest season of all time.
English
Novak Djokovic started his 2015 season by winning AO, Indian Wells, Miami and Monte Carlo.
Remains the only instance where an ATP player won the first four big events of the year.
It was also the only instance of someone winning the first three masters of the season.
English
@AmyLundyDahl Maybe put Houston, Charleston, etc after IW to kick off NA clay and Miami back a week on Hartru? If it were on clay I think best players show up to kick off clay season
English
Reasons to move #MiamiOpen out of March:
— Too close to Indian Wells, bad for health of players
— Spring Break, concert series in Miami, traffic & non-tennis crowds are nuts
— Competes with March Madness for attention
— Players want to get on with clay season
— Expensive for fans

I would give him PP1 to see out the year...
see what he CAN be with every opportunity.
Because he has more raw "skill" than any other Dman in Flyers system... and tbh 99% of Dmen in the NHL when have those hands and skating. #Flyers
English
For the last 40 games @NHLFlyers Sanheim has looked like a 1st pairing Dman...
a #1? No. But playing at ~#2 level.
But one of the few bright sparks amongst a frozen sea of disappointment and discontent. #Flyers
English
@HockeyStatsCZ You can praise a McEwen and criticize TK while still recognizing who is way better. Obviously expectations for TK and Sanheim are very high because they have so much more to give talent wise.
English
We're starting to think that Flyers fans have actually gotten what they deserve (not everybody of course). There are fans who're praising up players like MacEwen or Ristolainen and criticizing players like Konecny or Sanheim. It's absolutely unbelievable to read some comments...
English
@AmyLundyDahl @FiveThirtyEight They put clocks in to manage this and he stays within those limits most of the time. This was a story before that but now nothing to it.
English
Nadal plays within the rules.
But he’s got some tactics.
In 2019, I wrote about them for @FiveThirtyEight
First tactic: He makes you wait.
This should surprise no one.👇

@HockeyStatsCZ Nothing wrong with this specific move. You can argue other things like why not replace Yeo, but adding an experienced coach to the mix makes sense
English
The Philadelphia Wild. It's unbelievable that Chuck Fletcher is still GM of the Flyers. Bad.
Michael Russo@RussoHockey
This is true. Torch was #mnwild’s interim when Yeo was let go here. Great hockey man, 3-time NHL interim with FLA, LA and MN
English
@ADiMarco25 It's the players. If everyone was healthy they were borderline wild card team. No depth and key injuries means they are among worst teams now. Doesn't matter who coaches
English
I've said this numerous times, but I'll reiterate: this is not me saying that they shouldn't have made a coaching change.
I just still find it amusing how many people truly believed in their heart of hearts that this was/is a coaching issue.

I for one am SHOCKED that this ship did not get righted the second that AV and Therrien got canned.

They're ignorant, incompetent and have no understanding of the history or fabric of sports in Philadelphia let alone the great Flyers franchise that they unfortunately run right now

It's not about trading players or firing coaches. It's about changing the top of the organization back to something that knows and cares about the sport more than it cares about a mascot.
English
@PaulFMcNamee You just hope he is being treated equally as others whether he finds a way to stay or not. I just don't want to see him treated differently for better or worse
English
For those asking, all players go through the same visa process overseen by Tennis Australia to play the Australian Open (as non Australians are currently not able to enter). So it beggars belief that Djokovic is the only player that has had his visa granted and then rescinded
English
@tennisnation He should have indicated earlier this that he had a valid medical reason to not vaccinate. Most people would have accepted that and moved on. The cagey approach he took on this drew lots of unnecessary negativity
English
After 46 wonderful years at The Inquirer, I’ve accepted the buyout & will start a new phase in my life. Thanks to all my great editors & amazing colleagues, & thanks to all our passionate readers. It’s been my pleasure — and I still plan to do some #Flyers freelance work. Cheers!

@RGilbertSOP He didn't play it well but can't blame him completely here. Does he stick with McDonagh and let Stamkos waltz in? Stamkos did a good job of finding that spot that put Risto in impossible spot without back checking support
English
Seriously, what the hell is Rasmus Ristolainen doing here.
GIF
English
@HockeyStatsCZ I think you miss the point. The flyers have way bigger issues than Risto. Lack of center depth, lack of scoring, injuries, PP, etc. Would add that Sanheim is more under achiever than underrated. With his talent and physical gifts he should be a #1 dman with way more scoring
English
@EvolvingWild Nah, we just have bigger problems - injuries, lack of scoring, PP etc
English
Also, didn’t realize Risto is now a Flyers Fan Favorite. Interesting development.
English
@tennisnation ND v RN was one great set but just okay otherwise. Badosa at IW or SST at Wimb much more entertaining throughout
English
2021, you’ve been real!
Another tennis season ends (apart from fake Davis Cup), so here’s a throwback of what went down in tennis on both tours!
From great tournaments to gorgeous points, here’s a thread!
English
@tennisnation Replace SABR with federer's FH and this makes sense
English
@PaulFMcNamee @pauloliver9999 Set 3 was set of the year of doubt. Match was good but not their best by a long shot. For this year, I can't think of any other candidates on men's side. Women on other have been loaded with great matches
English
@pauloliver9999 I think I know when Rafa is off… like the Australian Open final with Wawrinka… I saw him get injured in the warm up and made the call, but no one would believe it… the third set at Roland Garros was way too remarkable imo for one of the men to be injured
English
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but THAT semi-final at Roland Garros, the one that changed history, is my match of the year …by a rather large margin
