Do people hate Philly's team now? I hated the teams with the "Legion of Doom," in part because they were pretty good. Teams that i'm jealous of are the ones that I think are going to be strong contenders the next few seasons. Namely the Habs who I believe are going keep getting better. The other teams that i'm jealous of are the ones that don't draw fans still win in front of empty arenas. Then when they're in the playoffs they help the die-hard fan base by putting up the intricate rules such as icing on the scoreboard, i.e. Carolina Hurricanes.
I myself respected the old "legion of doom" team,in a kick a$$ and take names sort of way.The Flyers of today are a bunch of cheap shot artists,that deserve no respect at all IMO.On a side note I kind of feel for you Buffalo fans,you guys fill that rink every night,buy every new jersey (alot to choose from) and your owners and GM keep screwing you by not holding on to your stars.I hear on the radio today (FAN590) that Miller won't talk "Contract" until the seasons over.For a team that was so close,it looks like they're breaking up a good thing.
