Good start for the Flyers, up 2-0 after one period

 

[Cobiemonster]

[raptorlife4]

team looks great so far

 

[Cobiemonster]

Cogliano scores, 2-1 game

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers lead 2-1 after two periods - let's have a strong third period and close this one out

 

[Cobiemonster]

Palmieri on the breakaway ties it at 2-2 - Flyers need to get going here

 

[Cobiemonster]

Teemu Selanne won't return

 

[Cobiemonster]

Damn Palmieri scores again, Ducks take a 3-2 lead - they've been turning it on the last period or so

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers getting a PP! Too many men on the ice for the Ducks - let's tie this one up Flyers!

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers lose 3-2 to the Ducks - tough loss - they had all control of this game when up 2-0 and let the Ducks back in it - time to bounce back next game against the Caps

Such a great first two periods, what happened in the third? It was like they completely switched roles and became the bitch. Gotta keep going!

It seems like they might have been gassed out in the 3rd - the Ducks big bodies might have contributed to that - whatever it was, it wasn't good - hopefully some of these practices will get them going for the next game

Not a bad loss, Ducks are a tough team, Flyers did a good job of hanging in this one.

Viewpoint from the stands on tonight's game. Team looked unbelievable in the first. They were active, great passing, crashing the net and deservedly had a 2 goal lead. Mason was stellar all night, none of the goals he let in were soft from what I saw in my seat. The third period the Flyers had no energy what-so-ever. They were a step behind constantly and when they did get the puck they either iced it or just lightly dumped it into the neutral zone. The feeling in the arena was not if, but when the Ducks would take the lead. I'm officially done with Coburn - just seems like he is constantly out of position and unless he's paired with a guy named Pronger he brings nothing good to this team (my sports hatred of him right now might be a bit irrational but I just think he's a throw-away at this point).

It just leaves an uneasy feeling - they had a chance to take control on home ice and didn't do it - I won't panic because I still like where they're going - just a disappointing game though - hopefully in the practices leading up to the Caps game they'll learn some things from this game and be better for it

Capitals game is important. Division rival & winnable game.

Tough loss they just needed that extra goal early on had the chances. Not sure why they gassed out in the 3rd? Did vaatanan hand pass it on the winning goal? Sure looked like it if so play supposed to be called.

I looked at the replay - the part in which it looked like he may have passed it with his hand, it looks like he had the stick in that same hand too and that he used his fingers to pass the puck while the stick was semi in his hand - tough call there, it looks awfully close
