Flyers On the Isle GDT:

Carter has been a dominant force the last 2 games. Great setup there.

When I think of Michael Grabner, the guy who was cut by the offense-less Panthers, sharpshooter isn't a word I'd use to describe him.

when the kid gets going, he was a wicked, wicked shot.
I don't know if his feet / confidence will ever catch up to his hands, but he absolutely has a great pair of mitts.

That is the exact opposite of what my Panther friends said about him. They said he was all speed with hands of stone. But what do Panther fans know about evaluating talent?

This game is boring as hell.

Isle's bored the Flyer's into their trap.

Tied at 1.

You're right, I can't blame him for the first goal. I can blame Zherdev.

Fuck the Russians.

NODL!!!! tied at 2!

Father Time hates the Flyers. He took a baseball bat to Pronger's skill level, but gives Grandpa Thomas, Grampy Roloson, and Pops Hedberg the skill of 2 Haseks and a Roy against the Flyers.

NOODLES!!!

He's got great wheels. What I meant about his feet catching up with his hands is sort of putting it all together.
I'm not sure how much of mason Raymond you have seen, but it was a very similar development path. Both had tremendous speed, and great hands when not pressured. I would say Grabner even has the better shot of the two. However, in the last couple of seasons, Raymond has been able to add his hands game to his speed game, so he's much much more effective (25 goals last year, on pace for about the same this year).

hope that makes sense. It made sense in my head, anyways.
Grabner = good hands, great speed; doesn't have good hands at high speed yet.
don't know if/when he will be able to put that together.

I'd take Konopka over Carcillo on the Flyer's. <EOM>

Flyer's win 3-2 before a jam packed, standing room only, house out on the Island.

Number 1 overall in points in the NHL??
