It looks like Mason is in net and Alphabet is paired with Schenn. I would assume

Streit - Grossmann
MDZ - Schultz
Alphabet - Schenn.

I'll miss the game because of work. Tuesday games are just bad for me.

My son heads back to college and flies out of Philly tonight at 7:10. I told my wife that due to timing and traffic, we should just go to the game after dropping him at the airport. To think, she would rather sit in traffic than go to a Flyers game. She was not overly receptive to my idea that she sit in the parking lot while I go into the game. If I were to drug her so she sleeps through the game in the car, I could face federal charges for taking her across state lines (We live in NJ). I guess I Will miss part of the 1st unless someone has another idea.

I say you buy her shoes as a bribe to get her to go to the game. TV tells me that always works.

Doesn't that beat all Chy. Buying her shoes as a bribe... ...You have to spend lots of money to enjoy your favorite hockey team. Now I know why I never married.

Random blurb: Edmonton's jerseys are some of the best in the NHL and just as good as any Original 6 team's jerseys.

Let's go Flyers. Really want Voracek to eat every Oiler's face tonight

Shoes and purses work the best! Watching on TV is never an issue.

12 Michael Raffl - 28 Claude Giroux - 93 Jakub Voracek
18 R.J. Umberger - 40 Vincent Lecavalier - 17 Wayne Simmonds
10 Brayden Schenn - 14 Sean Couturier - 24 Matt Read
36 Zac Rinaldo - 78 Pierre-Edouard Bellemare - 76 Chris VandeVelde

8 Nicklas Grossmann - 32 Mark Streit
15 Michael Del Zotto - 55 Nick Schultz
26 Carlo Colaiacovo - 22 Luke Schenn

I thought Schenn - Frenchie - Simmonds was starting to look pretty good and Umberger was pretty good with Couts - Read. I think Scheen and Umberger should be switched. I don't think Schenn fits on the 3rd line which is the shut down line. Maybe things get changed up during the game.

Meltzer tweeted that Schenn was skating with the 2nd line a little bit this morning.. haven't checked in a little bit though.

I think Schenn 2nd and Umberger 3rd makes more sense. I think Umberger is a much better fit with the 3rd.

agreed. and I kinda liked PEB with schenn and Simmonds.. they were clicking pretty well.

we'll see what happens though I suppose.

I agree - I like PEB's speed on the second line and R.J's size on the third line

Looks like Viktor Fasth will be in net for the Oilers
