When a franchise leaves dinosaurs in control, and those dinosaurs are incapable of adapting, the consequence will be failure. As a comparison, look what happened to the Raiders under Al Davis. In a league that is evolving and changing, you need people who can evolve with it. The Flyers are like my father in law, who can't figure out why his flip phone can't connect to the internet
Just prior to the trade that brought Eric Lindros, the Flyers were unwatchable. I think, as bad as they are now, the excuses are hollow and the damage is obvious. They have no choice but to change direction
I think I'll have hope
