After 7 games, Robitaille and Ruzicka are tied for the team lead in +/- with 0  :-D



(Hatcher is at -10)

Hatcher is on pace for - 117 and is last in the league in plus/minus

Go ahead IGY kill me for thinking Hatcher would be better this year.

Hatcher is the worst F/A signing in Flyers history, even worse than Gratton.

I dunno....Gratton cost us 4 #1 picks to sign.  Lucky for us, Tampa Bay agreed to take Renberg and Dykhuis instead...

Gratton was FAR worse.

I disagree, at least he scored an occassional goal. What does Hatcher do besides get the occassional decent hit. He's slower than slow and basically useless.

the gratton deal was actually a steal for the flyers

flyers signed gratton but instead of giving up the five #1's to tb they instead threw in dykhuis and renberg and ALSO got back from tampa three #1's who turned out to be gangne justin williams and maxim ouellet...it was actually one of the better manuevers clark ever made


whats even funnier is they traded gratton back to tampa for renberg AND daymond langkow
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

Then there was that Oates trade, big deals for Rathje, Richardson, and whatever other immobile crap he decided to sign, no #1 goalie, unlimited payroll for 10 years, no Cup...why is Clarke still here again?

QuoteFlyers fire Hitchcock; Clarke resigns
By Tim Panaccio
INQUIRER STAFF WRITER

An era of Philadelphia Flyers hockey has ended.

Flyers general manager Bob Clarke has resigned and coach Ken Hitchcock has been fired.

The club will announce both moves at a 10 a.m. news conference at the Wachovia Center.

Hitchcock had been starting his fourth season and was given a two-year contract extension in training camp while Clarke had been the team's GM for 19 seasons.

The Flyers are 1-6-1, their worst start since 1989-90, the first time the Flyers had fired Clarke. He rejoined the team in June, 1994.

It is believed the club asked for Clarke's resignation Friday night. Earlier Friday, Clarke said he took responsibility for how poorly the club had began this season.

Wow, I didn't think Snider had the balls to pull something like that off. Glad Clarke's finally gone but who replaces Hitch?

Keenan is fine for a team that clearly needs to rebuild. He can take his lumps for a while while the team gets itself up to par with the rest of the league and then they can hire a real coach.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

I didn't think Snider has the sack to get tough with his boy Clarkie.

Good. Hate to see Hitch go but he lost that team.

Who replaces Clarkie? Holmgren?
