So how badly are we going to lose this game 5-6 goal. I say 9-3 Philly.

Flyers haven't scored more than 2 goals in any game this season. Even tho the Rangers got an AHL goalie in net, should still be a good one.

We win 4-2

 

[David_son]

We win 4-2

Though I was looking at the lines and our skilled wingers are pretty lacking.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Though I was looking at the lines and our skilled wingers are pretty lacking.

Of course, but think Kreids gives us a nice boost tonight and a guy like Brassard finally gets going.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Almost game time!!!! LET'S GO RANGERS!!!

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Come on boys! Big pk

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Nice kill, nice kill and we managed a shot on goal on it! Come on now boys.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Good PK by the Rangers, Talbot looks good so far.

 

[Pastafazul]

ohhhhhhhhh great the rangers are playing! nowadays for our health sake its better when we don't play

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lets go rangers

 

[Pastafazul]

fargggggggggggggggggggggg these guys hav too much on their minds

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

And down 1-0, here we go.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

It might actually be an advantage to be shorthanded in this game.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

And back to the pk we go, trying to give Philly the game early.

 

[Pastafazul]

no way e r beatin detroit

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Still early, plenty of time to score on Mason.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

We need to get more pressure and more shots to the net, get in front of Mason.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Would be nice if Dorsett would win a fight and wake the team up. Can't stand Rinaldo.

RICHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
