The Flyers and the Playoffs: A Match Made in... Well, Not Recently
Let's face it, Flyers fans, the postseason has been about as welcoming to our team as a Broad Street cheesesteak vendor is to vegan cheese. But hey, there's always hope, right? Especially with the upcoming season! So, buckle up and grab your orange crush (because let's be honest, that's all that's flowing freely at the Wells Fargo Center lately), because we're about to dissect how the Flyers can snag that elusive playoff spot.
How Can Philadelphia Flyers Make The Playoffs |
Step 1: Channel Your Inner Rocky (But with Less Running Up Steps)
The Formula: Grit + Determination + a dash of sheer luck = a winning season.
The Flyers have grit in spades. Remember that time they stole Gritty's mascot head? That's some serious never-say-die attitude. Now we just need to translate that into on-ice dominance. Maybe some Rocky-esque montages will do the trick?
Word to the Wise: Running the steps at the Art Museum might not be the best training strategy for everyone.
Tip: Reading twice doubles clarity.
Step 2: Become BFFs with the Goal Net
The Problem: Pucks have a strange aversion to finding the back of the net for the Flyers. It's like they're allergic to nylon or something.
The Solution: Crash course in net-finding for the forwards? Maybe invest in some hypno-pucks programmed to seek out the red light? Desperate times call for desperate measures, folks.
Bonus Tip: Friendly reminder that throwing catfish at the opposing goalie is highly frowned upon (and frankly unsanitary).
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
Step 3: The Art of the Steal (Without Actually Stealing)
Let's Be Honest: The Flyers need some top-tier talent. Unless Gritty decides to lace up some skates, we might need to look elsewhere.
The Master Plan: Become the Robin Hood of the NHL. Intercept those high draft picks from less deserving teams and, uh, redistribute them to Philadelphia. Just don't get caught by Gary Bettman, alright?
Plan B: Develop some killer rookies who can score with the ferocity of a hangry Gritty at a Wawa.
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
