Flyers 3 Stars 2013-14

[lasgop8]

Rinaldo has top be a star somewhere in here we play a much better and more agressive game when he plays as opposed to sitting back and doing nothing like the Devil game that he missed.

 

[Retroram52]

1. Hartnall with two goals getting us going in the first period.
2. Giroux with the awesome OT game-winning shot that was completely unbelievable.
3. Emery. After a shaky first couple of minutes came alive to put a very good game in goal.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Claude Giroux - His OT goal was incredible, played so many minutes tonight
2) Scott Hartnell - When they were down 2-0, he got them back and made it 2-2
3) Sean Couturier - He did a strong job shutting down the main guys tonight

 

[lasgop8]

I agree with all the stars above along with strong games by Schenn and McDonald and much to my suprise Vinny.

27 minutes. thats outrageous for a forward. well done giroux, and well done berube to keep putting him out there

27 minutes. thats outrageous for a forward. well done giroux, and well done berube to keep putting him out there

It's an insane number, especially when you consider that it's six minutes and change higher than his season average. Of course, the way he's playing right now, I'd put him in whenever he wanted in. Given his compete level, that's going to be very often.

 

[Retroram52]

With Berube's straightforward approach on this team and the chemistry it has engendered, Giroux's leadership intangibility is a very needed on the ice. Since he is widely accepted amongst his fellow players and coaches as such, it is also a contributing factor for the high minutes. When a guy is this good and is the captain on a team with great chemistry, any coach will put the guy out there for a large number of minutes. Sort of like Bobby Clarke who I did see play.

 

[Retroram52]

1. Wayne Simmonds with a stellar night of two goals.
2. Streit and Raffl with a goal each to seal the deal.
3. Giroux, Couturier, Raffl, and Mason for just doing alot things right.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Wayne Simmonds - He was close to getting the hat trick but he was great in front of the net
2) Steve Mason - Very rock solid tonight, made huge saves when the Stars were coming on
3) Michael Raffl - His speed was great tonight and that goal he scored was fantastic

 

[lasgop8]

1- Mason wouldve been 6-4 if he wasnt awesome
2- Simmer just rules
3- Raffl played a great all around game

Notables Gee face offs were off the charts
Couts playing better everyday
Vinny and Schenn playing better as of late

 

[Retroram52]

Everyone gets a star today against the Blues.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Steve Mason - He was sensational today, made huge saves and was a key part of the PK
2) Scott Hartnell - His work on the power play was great and helped the Flyers get going
3) Claude Giroux - Two assists today and that gets him to 50 on the season

 

[lasgop8]

Everyone gets a star today against the Blues.

Except for Downie

 

[Retroram52]

 

[Retroram52]

1- Claude Giroux for doing nearly everything right-scoring goals, winning face-offs, etc.; Vinny Lecavalier for getting us going in the scoring column in the first.

2-Hartnall and Simmonds for adding to the goals and especially the Simmonds goal in the third-just made 'em pay.

3- Mase was pretty darn good tonight and his third period was stellar as he had some multiple saves to steal the momentum from Toronto.

Honorable mention to Rinaldo for just bangin' the krap out of the Leafs nearly every chance he got.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Claude Giroux - He was stellar tonight and led the way for the Flyers
2) Sean Couturier - He kept Phil Kessel in check which was huge
3) Steve Mason - Strong game for him tonight, he made big saves when they needed it

Let it be noted that it is absolutely criminal that Gus has been scratched. If Kimmo is re-signed over Gus...

Kimmo is still important to this team, they should cut a few minutes from him to keep him fresh but by no means does this mean Kimmo should be gone

 

[awaz]

Let it be noted that it is absolutely criminal that Gus has been scratched. If Kimmo is re-signed over Gus...

only caught the 3rd period, but he looked damn fast.

 

[Retroram52]

1. B. Schenn was a beast with two goals.

2. Vinny Lecavalier for doing alot of things right including a goal and making that fourth line effective.

3. Mase was stellar again tonight with a boatload of saves and giving up two goals.
