I hoping for an old time Rangers/Flyers match up. A fight filled 4-1 Flyers win. I know Prust is gonna want Sestito right off the bat and rupp better not bitch out to Shelley. Wether he thinks he is worthy of fighting or not sooner or later you look like a bitch if you don’t answer and Rupp knows it.

Not correct, honestly. Because Bartulis has an extra year left on his contract, somebody might still claim him on re-entry and we can’t risk it.
mtitanic’s answer was much closer; the rules are different and there’s less incentive to claim someone; but it doesn’t mean they can’t be claimed.

Actually, I think waiver/ reentry waiver moves can still happen, but there are some different consequences. Like, the team making a claim can’t use him for the rest of the season.
This. That’s what I meant by “no” :-))

That was a Sestito/Rinaldo call.

The league will bend over backwards to show no favoritism to the Flyers on the ice.
But the Flyers won’t ever be shown on some NHL Network broadcasts etc. This is about cash.

According to what rules of the sport? Because if you want to be the best team, all you have to do is win. The Cards won 3 games before we did, they were better than us. Then they won four before the other teams could, they were better. No prizes for winning regular season games guys, just an entrance into the elimination rounds.

According to baseball.
It’s not football. It’s not hockey or the NBA it’s baseball and you absolutely CN lose to a team that is not as good as yours if they are hot. How’d that next year work out for the Sf Giants eh? Did they make the playoffs, even? Stick to what you know because this is clearly not one of them.

The Giants weren’t the best team in 2011, they were in 2010. I hate when people bitch about being the better team after they lose. If you want to say you’re the better team it’s pretty easy to prove it. All you need do is win.
Broad Street Hockey's Reigning Trivia Champion
again,
this is baseball you’re trying to compartmentalize. It’s a game of averages and in a 5 game series nothing averages out. A team can be hitting well and another can grow cold. The better team, the better roster was the PHillies both times. Plz stop talking. You sound very stupid.

Broad Street Hockey's Reigning Trivia Champion
no. Not in baseball. The Red Sox got pushed out of the playoffs for the Rays. You taking their roster over the Red Sox? no. ill answer it because you don’t seem capable of common sense atm. That makes them a better team. The Phillies have a better roster currently than the cardinals, you would be better off betting them to win 96 games than the Cards, they will have a better record through 162 games. Thus, they are a better team that just lost 3 of 5 games in one random october. Stop being so silly

They were better than the 2007 Giants that beat the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. But saying they are better than one of the worst teams to ever win a Super Bowl is not saying much at all. Which is probably the most you can say in regards to the 2011 Giants.

The sad part is, it almost seems like he is saying that people use the “the better team lost” argument as a way to make themselves feel better about their team losing but I find it to be the complete opposite. When the Phillies lost to the Yankees in 2009 I was annoyed, mostly because I hate the Yankees but I believed the Yankees were the better team, so I accepted it. But the last two years, no, the Phillies lost to inferior teams and that makes it so much worse.
Ed Snider is a crotchety old fuck.
That is all.
the playoffs are a crapshoot! the best team doesnt always win!
look at the previous NYG/Pats SB back in what 2008? The Pats were an undefeated, record breaking team. By far the best team on paper in the league. They went to the SB and had a great fight that came down to a David Tyree luck beyond all luck catches. Giants won. They were by no means better.
The better team loses all the time. That’s part of what makes sports what it is. If the better team always won they wouldn’t play the game.
Ed Snider is a crotchety old fuck.
That is all.
In baseball, actually in most things, the better team is usually the team that has sustained success over a greater time period than a 5 or 7 game series. That’s why the playoffs are what they are, because in a short series the better team can lose.
Ed Snider is a crotchety old fuck.
That is all.
In the playoffs the crappy teams you beat are no longer there. Feasting on the Nationals doesn’t mean you’re better than a team facing a different schedule. It would be different if every team played every team every day, like in golf or something.

Correct – they were better than us, in those series. Obviously
You’re initial post I interpreted as the Phils lost to better teams on paper.
The Yankees were better than the Phillies, the Giants were better than the phillies, and the Cardinals were better than the Phillies. All three of these teams were also better than everyone else in the league though. Not really heartbreak. In 2008 we were the best team.

What’s weird about your argument is that it implies that last year, the Phillies were the better team, then the Cardinals were, then the Phillies were, but then in the end the Cardinals were.
There’s a difference between “who played better on this day [or this week]” and “which team is better”, in my opinion. It seems strange to argue that which team is better changes on a daily basis.
@BSH_EricT
Writer at Broad Street Hockey
No, they were not. I’ll give you the 2009 New York Yankees, but the 2010 Phillies were a better baseball team than the 2010 Yankees and the 2011 Phillies were a much better baseball team than the 2011 St. Louis Cardinals. If it keeps you sleeping at night that they lost to better teams, then you can believe it, but that is just not reality. In fact, in the 2010 NLCS against the Giants, the Phillies outscored the Giants 20-19 over the course of the series and in the 2011 NLDS the Phillies outscored the Cardinals 21-19. The Giants won three of their four games by one run in the NLCS, which is a ridiculous amount of luck.
What happened is both the Giants and the Cardinals in those respective series put up an absurd BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play), a statistic almost fully determined by luck. A team has no control if a groundball goes right to a defender or in a hole. Same goes with fly balls.
It may not be what you want to hear, but it’s the facts of the situation. The 2010 Phillies and 2011 Phillies were both the best teams in baseball in their respective season, with the 2011 Phillies being arguably the greatest incarnation of the Phillies. Since the Phillies won the 2008 World Series, each subsequent team has only gotten better, though that trend will likely end this coming season.

Various athletes do various things, I am not inclined for them to analyze it. It’s a known fact some baseball players welcome advanced stats and look at them, and others don’t. Some GMs go by them (one example: Billy Beane), other teams stay away from them (one example: Ruben Amaro, Jr.). But as fans, they give us excellent tools for analysis of what happens and provide us with a greater knowledge of sports than we ever had before. These series have been discussed, talked about, and analyzed, and what you see in my above explanation of the Phillies playoff losses in the last three years is the results of that.

These refs have ruined this game. I don’t care who wins. They’ve put the Rangers on two bullshit PPs for two bullshit goals.
the two shit calls I’ll give you. but those calls don’t lead directly to Rangers goals

yes, but the inability of the Flyers to kill a power play also factors in. to say the refs gave the rangers 2 goals isn’t accurate

The goals just illustrate the point. I’d say the same if I were a NY fan. Bad calls like that ruin the game. Refs: stop blowing your fucking whistle and let the players sort it out.
but a game is full of missed calls and wrongly made calls. it’s about how you bounce back after those poorly made calls, and the Flyers have bounced back

I would buy that.
We dealt with the same garbage with Avery after a while. It took two years, but you can see it in his penalties taken. He went from drawing 2 to every 1 he took, to that ratio evening out completely.
Those type of players are going to take awful penalties. There’s no really avoiding it.
