Schenn...but I think that it will as a result of a great play from either Jake or G.

 

[Maverick426h]

I really want to see Voracek score, so I'll go with him. It's what is best for the team. We need to get this guy scoring. It will open up the top power play unit and get the second line rolling also.

 

[Vadered]

I'll go with Gudas scoring the first goal. Because I haven't participated all season, so why get points now?

 

[mall3013]

Voracek scores 1st goal.

 

[wbon22]

So many great points....Getting Jake rolling is important. Getting a goal regardless of who we pick.

Will be interesting to see how G and Cooter are matched up with the Caps.

ps I think Nick Cousins will be a very important pace setter in this final stretch. He has had several game changing shifts that have brought the bench up and raised the energy level for the Flyers when they really seemed back on their heals. His points are never pile ons.

 

[wbon22]

...the real question....do I just sit here and comment all game?
Leaning that way, gotta be honest.

 

[Vadered]

Didn't catch what happened 4-5 minutes ago behind the Cap net, did somebody catch one of our guys in the face with a stick?

 

[wbon22]

Chess match hockey so far. Neither team has sustained much pressure. Both teams are skating well.

Bellmare got an elbow to the head. It was Karlson (sp)

 

[Maverick426h]

It's chippy, but very tight and even so far. Just seems like two division rivals measuring each other. If they want to give us a point and take this to OT, we'd gladly accept...Lol

 

[Maverick426h]

Holtby is holding them in it. He's made about four A quality saves this period, including the breakaway by Schenn and Cousins just now all alone in front.

 

[Vadered]

Some good chances both ways so far. Hopefully we can pull ahead.
