You're not winning a cup with that goaltending.
I am a flyers fan, and I agree: We're never winning the cup with this goaltending. Look at the list of goaltenders to wear the flying P since 1987: Stand-up style Hextall, Dominic Rousell, Tommy Soderstrom, BACK to stand-up Hextall, Garth Snow, aging Sean Burke, aging Beezer, "Nitty!", "Head save" Roman Cechmanik, Brian Boucher, "The Universe!" Bryz (HA!), Biron, Robert Esche, Emery, Michael Leighton, Boucher (again), Bobrovsky (Future Vezina winner who we traded away for....), Steve "200 ft" Mason, Neivy, Mrazek, Elliott......WOW! That is a crack squad of savay, motivated number 1's, right?
They're always SO GOOD everywhere else in their lineup, yet will always lose because the most important position in the NHL is ignored. It's sad, really. Hopefully one of the prospects pan out, but they're not ready this year. Face it: Unless we get better goaltending, we're just giving away money to watch a team not win a championship.
Do you know that for every ticket we buy, we're still paying a tax on Bryzgalov's contract!? Seriously! The Flyers are still paying him until the end of the 2019-2020 season....I mean, seriously. That's insanity. Even more insane? He was probably the best we've had in between 1987 through to today, and that's counting Hextall's rookie Vezina/Conn Smyth season.
