The Flyers or the city itself? Since I am assuming that you are talking about the Flyers, here is what I think is wrong with the Flyers:
The Flyers as an organization has not adapted well in the new, post-lockout NHL. They are still stuck in the mentality that lumbering big men are the keys to success. They are slow on defense and a speed team like the Sabres will expose them everynight.
They also have to conform to the salary cap. In the past, they would go out and spend Ed Snider's money and try to buy a cup. Now they can't. They have to do something they haven't tried to do in the past. Scout and develop and plug in free agents to fill holes.
It all starts at the top with Bob Clarke....

Buffalo sure had their way with them after the first period. Philly took a lot of penalties but at the end of the game the stats show that there was only 6, it seemed like Buffalo was always on the pp. Philly needs more speed esp. at defence!!

The Flyers Suck
This is coming from a sabre fan from buffalo who watched the sabres crush you guys in game 2 8-2 and in game 6 7-1 in last year's series
our forwards can skate around your slow defenders. end of story

You guys need to dump Bobby Clarke to win the Cup. He's too much of a clown and distracts the rest of, not just the team, but the organization.
Go Leafs.

Everything, they used to be a dominate team but Philly has since seen the injury of their captain, which I think is the reason that they suck a lot more.

Derian Hatcher. He has to go immediately. The only time he is effective is when him and Forsberg are teaming up to try to ruin an 18 year old's career and take their teeth out... LOL
SEE YA!

I highly advise you to switch your team to the Phantoms, atleast they've got a winning record.
