Holy shit. First goal on the road. Second PP unit. Couturier. From MacDonald.

It's the apocalypse.

effort is there so far

 

[flyersfan4706]

Oh my God, Grossmann. So close

 

[awaz]

Omg what a move by Grossmann.

Screw you niemi. Nick deserved that.

This game is really escalating quickly.

 

[Retroram52]

And we are still up by one. Miraculous!

 

[Retroram52]

Luke Schenn with the big hit. You don't see that everyday.

 

[Retroram52]

Voracek whiffed on that pass. You don't see that everyday either.

 

[Retroram52]

Well. I hope we win. I am out early.

 

[awaz]

Not far behind retro. Think I'm gunna hit the feathers after the second.

 

[flyersfan4706]

Felt that one brewing

 

[flyersfan4706]

I ain't even mad

 

[raptorlife4]

Painful

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

That was a tough loss, should've at least gotten a point out of it.

 

[Retroram52]

And the woes continue.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Coburn taking out Mason leaving a wide open net for Nieto in the waning seconds of the game pretty much sums up the season so far for the Flyers.

[lasgop8]

That sucked so bad!

 

[Cobiemonster]

At least they played better - need to instill the good habits - play that way again tonight and they will get two points

who to play and other issues

Coburn has been awful, he needs to sit, glad to see that vinny was finally upstairs, he should have company with umberger. Andy Mac was pretty solid last year, and he wasn't bad on the island, I wonder if he's just not up to game shape yet and is having trouble keeping up with the speed of the game.

I've always thought rinoldo was ok since he has some speed, CAN be a good forechecker, and brings energy, but I think I'd rather have rosehill brought up to play, he's more of a detterent, and I actually think he has better hands than rinoldo in front of the net.

I don't see why so many have a love affair with MDZ, he's knocked off the puck with ease, rarely wins a board battle, and couldn't move a Kenyan marathon racer from in front of the net. Yeah, he makes a good pass once in awhile, and has a descent shot (when it hits the net). He never lived up to expectations in NY, and hasn't been able to stick anywhere else.

Perhaps one of my biggest gripes as of late, and I haven't seen many write/talk about it, is over the past several games I have noticed Giroux coming in wayyyyyyyy late on the backcheck, I can remember 2 goals scored because of it, but I'm sure I'm just forgetting others.

cheers

Better than what? Pathetic?
