Perfect example with a major problem with this team. Squidney goes in on a 2 on 1 with Sheary. He takes a good hard shot, rebound to Sheary and puck in the back of the net. Later we go down on a 3 on 1. Raffl has the puck but tries for the perfect pass and no shot. Same thing on the pp all night. Shoot the fricking puck and crash the net.

That was post #5000. Thanks for stealing the honor from Lasgop.

Looks like Lyon gets the start tonight. Otherwise, same lineup.

SO coming off of the ledge a bit.
Flyers played so well and put them in a spot where they could and would have an obvious hiccup like post teams do.

It is now up to the leaders of the team to settle everyone down and remind them that a playoff spot is in their hands. I fully expect a big win tonight

Jack Edwards is #1 or #2 on my ‘punch him in the face’ list I think.

And there we have it boys. Add that as a 3rd period collapse. Ugh, so close to getting this into OT. We lost at least 1 point.

Good effort all around tonight. Just some bad luck at the end of the game. Gotta suck up another one and look towards Saturday

Read goes from AHL caliber player to 3rd most trusted player to get them to OT in 10 minutes of ice time. I like Read, but what the hell? Was Konecny hurt or did they just decide to go in to their shell with 5 minutes left? Read took at least the last two shifts from Konecny.

1. Going in to your shell always bites you. Konecny should’ve been out there trying to score.
2. If you felt that way about Read, what the hell was he doing in the AHL all season?

Very disappointing. They played a good road game but they're looking more like the loser team lately than the one that pulls it off. Super streaky. To be fair Simmer was tripped on that breakaway... fuck.

I agree 100%. this team needs to right the ship now. A couple more loses and that's it for the playoffs to. Too many teams on our heels that are hot and will pass us and never look back.

I'm sorry, but get Lyon out of there asap. I blame him almost entirely for the 1st and 3rd goals against. The crease is not a miniature swimming pool, so don't utilize it that way. Obviously Simmonds was tripped on the turnover that led to the breakaway goal by Gionta. They almost always call that when it's a huge play the other way, but not this time for some reason.

Fucking crushing defeat. We had one point in the bank and possibly a second to come because we're red hot in overtime right now. Not getting at least that point is just absolutely infuriating and unacceptable. It's not good enough and I think it ruined a pretty decent effort by the entire team during a very difficult scenario.

Keep this up and we're either missing the playoffs entirely or playing Tampa in round one. Those are the two nightmares we hope to not have moving forward.

On a side note, I like how the Boston commentators bitch and moan about penalties all game long when the goal that put them up 2-1 was a clear trip or slew foot of Wayne Simmonds. They actually showed a fucking replay of the Flyers having 6 players on the ice, 2 that were right near the bench while we didn't have possession and were whining about no penalty. That happens all game long for both teams and even you two idiots know it, so shut the fuck up.
