@BeeTEE15 I would add that Neuvirth performance in game 5 against the Caps in 2016 as well.

Dan Vladar easily with the best performance i’ve ever seen from a Flyers goaltender in the playoffs. he was not going to let anything by him.
English
@GnomeRad 100%. They clearly care about being e-celebs more than anything else, hence his constant signaling that he's not actually going to cross any red lines.
English
@chrispronger How about you stay behind after Briere, Jones and Hillferty are fired and escorted out of the building?

Philadelphia — I’ll be at the game tonight for #LetsGoFlyers vs. #CBJ
Looking forward to spending time with fans and partners throughout the night.

@goalfarabee86 Fireable offense. It's long past time for another full front office sweep.
English
Briere coulda just said “yea man we’ll sign that ELC right now for you” and proceed to have THAT guy on the roster right now but nope he was too worried about a cap overage as a rebuilding team with 100 billion dollar ownership group

Top scorers since the Olympic break. Some interesting storylines: - Gauthier leads in goals, scoring at a Cy Young pace - Kucherov leads in points, McDavid leads in assists - Necas tied 2nd in points, picking up right where he left off at the Olympics hockeystats.com/dashboards/ska…

@alexandrosM He's just a smooth operator who sees how bad the war is going for his employers so he's jumping ship early in the hopes of retaining credibility moving forward, though you'd have to be special needs to think this guy has ever been an honest actor.

Sounds like somebody's check bounced

“The things that people are saying about the rationale for this conflict are not true,” says @KonstantinKisin. “I do not believe that Iran was about to pose a threat to the United States… Currently, as I sit here, I don't understand the strategy… I am seriously concerned this will drag on... I’m struggling to see how this ends well at this point.”

@SuitableAlias What’s funny though is if they simply stayed out of their own way and hired Shaw or one of the other candidates for HC they would still have a decent amount of leash in spite of general track record of ineptitude.
English
At the end of it all, the Flyers' situation is really this simple.
Danny Briere is on year 3 of service, and the discourse around the team sounds almost identical to year 1 of service.
The team hasn't taken enough of a leap either in perceived prospect value or on-ice ability

@stilljneal His death would mean Captive Dreidel lost two fathers in a short period of time

@the_primuspilus @MakingSenseHQ He’s not even good in his field though; he purchased his PhD and didn’t even conduct the experiments, nor has he published anything in the field since. He is a complete and total fraud.
English
@MakingSenseHQ Sam is the perfect example of the halo effect. He may be good in his field, but he is absolutely clueless in everything else.

Tucker cornered Huckabee into endorsing a biblical mandate for Israel to take the entire Middle East, then used it to signal to his audience that Christians owe Jews nothing. Sam Harris breaks down what he calls a new and alarming strain of Christian politics.

@BizNasty2point0 @FlyersNation @NHLFlyers He will go down as the single worst coach in franchise history

@FlyersNation @NHLFlyers Only the ones going after Tocc.

Won the game and beat @BizNasty2point0 in the birthday mogging competition. 😮💨

@GadSaad Who is the intended audience here? Poorly written, and someone with even a cursory understanding of the situation would quickly determine you either have no idea what you're talking about, or are lying. Your profound ignorance of even basic WWII history is also laughable
English
@JucheRespecter Not to mention the sheer level of treachery committed by the German high command that allowed the landings to happen. I doubt China would have the same problem.
English
The idea of fighting China to a draw in a contested maritime landing is, quite frankly, capeshit. It's built entirely upon the idea that China - knowing that America can only fight for 7 days - will storm the beaches of Normandie without even Normandie's preparatory bombardment.

The process of emptying out the Pacific theatre has begun. It is unlikely that these can be replaced on a strategically relevant timeline, given the ongoing needs in other theatres. The US now CANNOT hold the line against China in the Western Pacific. Four strategic blunders—pursuing the war in Ukraine after Spring 2022, when a peace deal was on the table, two separate waste-of-time dumbdumb campaigns against the Houthis in Yemen, allowing Israel to go ahead with the Twelve Day War, now now the Iran War—have drained US arsenals of key munitions needed to defend US air and naval bases in the region, and those of allies, and to suppress Chinese fires. Frankly, US EPIC FURY performance, insofar as protecting its bases and allies against a much inferior opponent to China, has suggested that key is bases like Okinawa, Yokohama, Luzon and even Guam might not have been survivable anyway. Nevertheless, with air defences and what Trump calls the 'Exquisite' category of weapons run dry, the question is moot. The best that the US can hope for now is that they can somehow fight China to a draw over Taiwan because of the difficulty involved in a contested maritime landing, and the US's superiority in submarine warfare. But even this is now highly doubtful. China will have taken note. Expect in the coming months to see hints that it is ramping up diplomatic pressure on Taipei. It might not push for immediate reunification, but something that would put Taiwan on inescapable railtracks in that direction. And don't forget, the Taiwanese elites aren't blind. They can see what's happened to Ukraine. And they can certainly count. Many serious voices warned of exactly this. They said Ukraine was a mistake. That trying to take on the Houthis was. They said it would lead to this. Now it has. Eldridge Colby weeps. P.S. One last thing. Do NOT let the European establishment lay this entirely at the feet of Trump. He deserves some of the blame. But if it was up to the European establishment ALL of what's being spent on Iran now would be going to Ukraine, so it would make no difference.

@TheLibertyYell Easily a bottom 3 front office in the league.

The Flyers actually banked on this FA class. Remember that. Remember how fucking insane that is.

The @UofT just posted a job opening for a tenure-stream professor of Computational Biology and Data Science no white men allowed "Selection will be limited to candidates who identify as members of one or more of the four federally-designated groups: women and gender minorities (those who identify as women, trans, nonbinary, Two-Spirit, and gender fluid, based on the gender identity that best describes applicants at the current time), racialized persons/visible minorities, Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities."

@SuitableAlias I will say, you were one of if not the first account on here to express skepticism about the Brière/Jones regime. You’re now vindicated as it’s quite apparent another full front office sweep is desperately needed.
English
Trust the Process.
The Process:
- Derek says something
- Derek gets called a nutcase repeatedly and vigorously
- Derek is proven correct

@MaherMediaCo Easily among the worst coaches in franchise history

What do you think of Rick Tocchet so far this season? 🤔
With the Flyers solid start, to a really tough January & the issues off the ice with young star Matvei Michkov, do you think Tocchet is a problem?
#LetsGoFlyers
English
@irvingbooks I have many of your grandfather's books and they form an integral part of my library. Hitler's War is the finest history book I've ever read. Cheers for all of the work you're doing.
English
@SuitableAlias Where do you think Tocchet will ultimately end up ranking among coaches in franchise history? I think it’s fair to say he’s demonstrably the worst since 2000 anyway.
English
But Rick Tocchet is a serious coach, guys. His friends love him.
Charlie O'Connor@charlieo_conn
Looks like Grebenkin actually may be the one to take a seat out of the 4th liners. He's still out on the ice with the rest of the presumed scratches.

@BrotherAugusti2 Couldn’t agree more. And the other two volumes in the series are fantastic as well.

I can’t recommend this book highly enough — it should be on every Christian’s bookshelf.

Okay going to go out an continue reading Stalin's War. I am up to part three, a little over 200 pages into the text. So far it is pretty good. Although I do think he could be more concise.
