2011-12 Flyers Season Thread: Now With Less Alcohol!

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

They beat the Caps 5-1 and no one cares?

my apologies for attending the game

You should have come home all excited and ready to give updates.

i care guy.

Bryz played well again.  10-1-1 in his last 12.

You I'm not worried about.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

His chick really looks delighted to be there with him.

[ice grillin you]

so close to the vip section yet so far away

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

You can't expect him to spring for VIP tickets. He needs that $126 million to last through retirement.

[rjs246]

He has a giant head.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I doubt that. He just has way too much hair growing from all sides of it.

[Don Ho]

He has a giant head.

DOWN IN FRONT!

This 24/7 on HBO is outstanding

[SunMo]

i didn't watch it yet, but i say the bryz part on youtube, what a wackadoo

[SD]

I fell asleep, is the one that's on tonight the same one as lastnight or is it a new one? It's not on the primary HBO channel so I'm guessing it's a replay.

Per today's update, probably easiest to assume Pronger will never play again.

[SunMo]

yeah, he's done.  man that sucks.  the only bright spot, if any, is it frees the flyers of his contract and opens up a shtein load of cap room to go get somebody
