He's apparently more popular with the organization than the fans. I think he was the one who lost Sykora on first goal, though. Among other things.

It is the amount he is going to get that scares me. He would be okay as a cheap option, but that wont be the case

I'm hearing Suter is going to be like 5-6m guy. That may be unrealistic considering our budget constraints. We hope mez is going to regain stud status. Obviously, tonight shows we need more of a physical presence.

I am going to need a few days to get into speculation mode. We do need toughness. The youth is their and, barring multiple sophmore slumps, will be better next year. Gotta imagine we draft a dman in the 1st.

At the very least Bryz is proving what he can be.

Like I said earlier in thread, it feels like we got the death sentence tonight. But you never know. One win changes the complexion of the series. Cheers.

Home games should be expected wins. Need to steal one in NJ, and it is ours.

Easier said than done, of course.

I doubt he gets it, but I'd say Giroux deserves a game. But, I'm comparing it to the other playoff suspensions we've seen.

I don't think you need to worry. I think our boys are drained. Just couldn't figure out how to beat the NJ system. It may go 6 , but won't be surprised if it ends in 5.

We need size and speed on defense. I don't know about you but I still would love to get Luke Schenn at some point. Let Carle go. We have Mez, Coburn, Timo, Bourdon, gusty. That's not going to cut it. Add either Schenn, Suter, or Weber ( highly doubt we can get).Schenn makes sense. Suter will cost a ton on free market. Schenn we could probably get by trading JVR. I'm too tired and pissy to go over all of this now.

Like I said on the Flyers board, I want to draft a Euro dman. :)

Far too much giving up in here for my tastes.

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING CONTENT IS NOT SAFE FOR MINORS. JUST LETTING YOU MOTHERFUCKING ASSHOLES KNOW.

Devils - Fuck you for being better at forechecking at us. Fuck you for having an arena with ice so bad in the third it would be too rough for a friction test. Fuck you for having your goalie absolutely annihilate us whenever we dump the puck in low. Fuck you for checking Hartnell into your own goalie and somehow ending up on the power play. Fuck you for living in New Jersey.

Flyers - Fuck you, forwards, for fleeing the offensive zone the second anyone in orange gets near the puck and not fucking supporting them. Fuck you, defensemen, for repeatedly trying to make the cute play instead of the safe play. Fuck you, everyone who keeps trying to dump the puck in low. Fuck you, Claude Giroux, for getting two points and then taking a moronic penalty because ur mad, bro. Fuck you, Bryzgalov, for playing well and not giving me anything to slam you about last game. And fuck you, everyone, for your inability to play a full game.


What Lavi should tell the team today:
Gather round, boys, because we are using our fucking series timeout, right fucking here, right fucking now! There's another game tomorrow. The word game is used intentionally here, as the Devils were toying with us all game long in the last three. That CANNOT happen again. We are going back to our arena, where we are going to RUN THEM THE FUCK OVER. No more playing cute. No more blind reverses behind our net, or deking as the last man. No more idiotic penalties. Because - and listen to me, assholes, because I am saying this only one fucking time - WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS. I don't care if we go out there and play our style of hockey and lose by seventy goals, because maybe, just maybe if we do that, we won't shit all over our team's dignity like we have these last three "contests." The Devils are strong. They are fast. They have a great goalie. But you know what? We're strong. We're fast. We have a goalie and he's been great too. But we haven't shown that. We haven't DESERVED to win this series. We need to get on that ice, and fucking ram the puck so hard down their FUCKING throats that they have to see a rectal specialist. We need to hit them so hard they won't know what SPORT they play. We need to jam the puck around the boards so high and fast ol' grandpa Brodeur breaks his fucking hip trying to track it. We need to remind them what Flyers hockey is all about - quick breakouts, hard forecheck, traffic in front of the net. This series isn't over unless we let it be. Now go, guys. Take a look in the mirror, and see what a loser looks like. Then come back tomorrow and show me what a winner looks like.
