The epitome of the Flyers' season...749 shots on goal, 6 shots against, and a loss. Simmonds? Did Lavy watch the video from the last time Simmonds had a shoot-out attempt? He looks like a right-handed player with a left-handed stick for God's sake. Bryz was great until it mattered. The shoot-out is part of the game and will be for a long time. The sooner the Flyers address this and make ANY attempt to figure this out, the better. But they won't, and will continue to lose playoff position as a result of losing these precious points.

Oh, I forgot...Bourdon is really starting to make me want Ryan Parent back...

He's been looking more like a Flyers dman every game.


Thats a very bad thing.

At least the 749 shots were on goal and not wide. Just saying.

40 minutes of slaving our the computer to make this Bryzgalov love avy, and it is fucking small.

EDIT> New one sucks too.

Bryzgalov remains statistically the worst goalie in the Nhl this season in shootouts, going 0-4 and stopping 2 of 10 shots against in the process.

Sorry, but there's just no excuse for that. I know the sample size isn't big, but it's never going to be for just one season. We'll never win a shootout again if he doesn't stop two or three shots.

I would send out Briere, Giroux and Jagr (possibly Voracek) every single time with this roster. Why in the fuck are we still sending out Simmonds? We should also continue to shoot first whenever possible. It's a complete joke right now.

Lavy needs to quite second guessing himself and stick to his guns in the shootout.

I also think Bryz failing to stop a shot compounds the problem altogether by putting extra pressure on our shooters to score every single time up. Therefore we end up being one of the deepest teams in the Nhl yet the fucking absolute worst at the shootout. If our goalie could stop a puck in the shootout, I'd gladly let the other team shoot first, but definitely not as it stands.

scoring a goal in the shootout would also be nice too, simmonds must be doing something nasty in practice for lavy to give him 2 tries at this

 

[TOX1]

Reminds me when we lost a Cup for not having a 3rd pairing.

Yep.

Scoring breakaway shots on Bryz?

 

[SLY]

... that was good.

 

[TOX1]

Actually, it was. lol

 

[flyersfan4706]

Well, I am going to be the guy to stick up for Bryz.

where have you been to have my back for months!!!

Well it is not like I have been his fan all season, but my signature says it all. The ASG break ruined Bob last year, only makes sense Bryz can turn around from there.

 

[Vadered]

The best thing - no shootouts in the playoffs. Just hope we don't lose enough of them in the meantime to MISS the playoffs.

very true, i could rally behind that banner

but someone's gotta drive the 'bryz needs to play better' bandwagon

 

[SLY]

Just abandon all hope.

haha wow, I was seriously torn between my current signature and "Ilya Bryzgalov has never lost a shootout in the playoffs"
