What was the reason for the Flyers lackluster performance in this years Playoffs ?

This Poll Will Run Until The End Of The Month

Honestly, it's a mix of them all.

The desire to win needs to be in there. They Flyers showed no heart, effort, or passion in this game 6. How can your fans be so loud when you're down five-nil, and then you just don't skate. It just confuses the hell out of me.

Eh. I'll blame it on Defense and Speed for now, though.

this was all about heart... and the Flyers certainly didn't have any... all the talent in the world can't help you when you come out playing like they did.

Hopefully they can make some moves in the offseason and put this whole debacle behind them.

I voted for the defense, simply because the game six was just horrendous.

I actually think it was a mix the heart being gone, team speed (Buffalo left us in the dust all series), and poor defensive play.

We're going to need to pick up some quick players in the offseason if we'd like to remain competitive in this league.

how many times will i mention it. Speed!!!!!

team chemistry and speed.. We got too many new guys before and during the season and couldn't manage to have them play more than a few games until someone got injured, again and again.

I knew the salary cap would be the demise of the mighty Flyers. Bottom line - they have to work with what they got. They really only have 2 great players, a handful of good players, and the rest are mediocre at best. Without a doubt, speed and hunger / heart are the keys. The days of the Broad Street bullies has come to an end. That was proven in the last few games when the opposition made Hatcher look like a pylon. So I say … new mobile defensemen will be the smart move. But of course that’s easier said than done.
