The Flyers are neither contenders, nor pretenders, nor disappointments

Farabee tomorrow and Farabee Sunday.

Flyers playing well again but running into another hot or you could say lucky goalie. Anderson has at least three saves off the knob of his stick...

Since when have the Flyers get good on the shootouts? Great win tonight.

Big guys like G and Couts are willing them to victories. The D was also pretty good 2 goals against the leafs isn't bad. They also could have scored a few more. Elliot solid as well. Tonight's game will be a real test.

I'll take TK tonight first goal.

great 1st - Gee had fewest minutes of all forwards , jvr second fewest sitting at 2-0

me thinks the guard is changing before our very eyes

Depends, you springing for the airfare and weed?

The weed I have, you're on your own anytime airfare is involved It's great to hear from you.

You to man hope all is well out your way. Your team looks good again this year, may be the team to beat in the east to get to the cup.

or he has a foot injury

 

[mall3013]

I hope we pull this game out. We at being totally outplayed in the 3rd and it's tied. Ugh!

 

[mall3013]

Look at that back to back shootout wins in the road vs two very good teams. Cheers boys!

Great weekend.

Feels like we sacrificed Morin's knee to the Shootout gods...

 

[Chris p Bacon]

We've flip flopped this year, now we play great 1st periods, decent second periods, and then we struggle in the third closing out games. Gonna bite us in the ass soon.

Maybe that was the product of the back to backs that they have had so far against some quality teams.

As far as I'm concerned, we cannot compare this team to last year.
Totally different style, mindset, basically everything is different.

Let's just enjoy it.
We'll have time to criticize them later....

I don’t know dude. They played 3 in 4 and 4 in 6 and still came out with 4 points on the road against two good teams. Boston played 1 game in the previous 4 days. I know this board likes to nitpick, but let’s accept that they are getting it together and looking good. Big game Wednesday night!

I'm not nitpicking lol. Just saying we really haven't played well in third periods, gonna be a factor soon. Hope we can figure out what the deal is and keep these games from slipping into OT or shootouts.

Also please stop using the fatigue factor for poor play, it shows lack of sports knowledge. These are professional athletes who train at a high level constantly. If back to back games are wearing them out then they need to look into another sport. Also Raffl says AV doesn't skate them in between so rest should be abundant.

So you're suggesting the team playing 1 game in 4 nights as opposed to 3 games in 4 nights won't have fresher legs in the 3rd?

This is a fairly accepted concept throughout the sport from coaches to players to media...
