We need to come out with a purpose against Columbus, we need a good game to carry us into a redemption game against the Flames. This to me will be a telling tale of where this teams heart is.

100% correct. Columbus is a team we should beat and we need a win to keep pace. man our division is a tough one.

If Noah Cates comes back this weekend who goes to the healthy scratch list?

Well he couldn't be any more worse then Atkinson or Laughton, maybe he can score?

I Personally would not take out Laughton just because of the chemistry him and TK have on the PK.

If anyone i would choose from Atkinson and Frost and id probably go with Frost.

Not enough killer instinct lately with this squad. We're a good team, but once we get that 1-0 lead, we're not putting teams away. Too much passing the puck around and trying to find the perfect play, instead of just letting it fly on net, especially from prime scoring areas. I also think a bit of road weariness and running into teams that are really starting to roll has factored into our recent losses. Konecny playing hurt and the flu bug going through the team probably hasn't helped matters ether.

Fortunately, Konecny is moving around much better tonight in Philly and has scored the first goal too. The power play is so dysfunctional that we failed to score on a full two minute 5 on 3 power play, which was even more in our favor after one of the Jackets broke his stick. Let's see if we blow another 1-0 lead or we can start to bury Columbus here.

For God's sake, someone tell Ersson to just shake his head vigorously whenever the strap on his helmet is loose or undone. He got a delay of game penalty for taking it off with this hands in a recent game and just now seemed to not know what to do with that same situation again.

Still 1-0 Flyers about halfway through this one. I sure as hell hope we get the puck on net more instead of trying to essentially play not to lose or sitting on the narrow lead. As of right now, I'd like to see more. Columbus is just plain not good for many reasons.

Our best chance to grab the 2-0 lead tonight may actually come while killing a penalty....Rofl

Perhaps there it was right at the end of the second period. Can't let Columbus continue to hang around here. We're much better, but just cannot finish right now. Get more pucks on net and clean up that garbage.

Squandered what should have been 2 points last night. Weird part is it looks like our PP is getting worse lol. Hopefully we can add the right pieces going forward to make this a stronger offensive unit. Hoping Briere can pull a miracle and trade Risto so we can keep Walker and Seeler.

Man that loss last night stunk. They looked tired again but i thought Torts and his lineup changes last night hurt us more than anything.

Please trade Risto and free up that money.

The PP has just turned to shit when it was getting incrementally better. Somebody slipped a turd into the punch bowl that everyone was drinking from apparently!!

That was a bad third. They looked tired.

They better rest up because the game tomorrow is an early one.
