Matt Read does it again! 3-1 Flyers!!!

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers lead 3-1 after two periods! Let's finish this out with a strong third period!

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Razor Read show! Definitely need to close this game out...

 

[Cobiemonster]

Brock Nelson makes it 3-2 - come on Flyers finish this game right

 

[flyersfan4706]

Hold on now

 

[NDIrishGuy]

Flyers got away with interference there...whew.

 

[NDIrishGuy]

And then Downie commits the dumbass penalty. I guess someone had to take over since Rinaldo is out...

 

[flyersfan4706]

Thanks, Downie

 

[Cobiemonster]

Nice fucking collapse Flyers

 

[NDIrishGuy]

F U Downie....ugh

 

[Cobiemonster]

Can't believe the Flyers gave the fucking Islanders a point - bullshit

 

[Cobiemonster]

I'm miffed that this game even has to go to a shootout at this point - flipping pathetic excuse of a game by the Flyers

 

[flyersfan4706]

We get no luck.

 

[flyersfan4706]

Just despicable. How embarrassing

Don't look now but Bobrovsky and the Blue Jackets have won 6 in a row and are 3 points behind...

I am so disgusted with this shit bag hockey team - fucking embarrassing - an absolute train wreck of a Hockey team

Shit list:
Ray Emery is an absolutely garbage goaltender - fucking dumbass Craig Berube still starts this guy on the road WHY WHY WHY YOU DUMBASS
Steve Downie is a fucking mental midget I hope they quit playing his ass - his fucking penalty cost them the game - tired of his garbage - ship his ass out I don't want any part of him anymore
Vinny Lecavalier is getting paid $4.5 million a season to put up zeros - he should start being scratched as well - absolute pathetic - an old cone would score a goal before he scores another one
Nicklas Grossmann was the on the ice for every big situation - it goes to show you how fucking pathetic the defense is - most of these guys should not be off limits - if means getting good defensemen they need to do it - I hate this defense so bad
Craig Berube waits until after the game to rip the team when he should have done it during the game - this team fucking sits back every time they get a lead - FINISH THEM THE FUCK OUT YOU FUCKERS

emery stopped 40 of 43 today (.930 sv%) - i'm playing box score hero because i missed most of it, but garbage goalies dont do that. i listened to the shootout, sounded like he sucked in the shootout, but he did more than enough in regulation for the flyers to win. the loss isn't on him.

downie - agree

lecav - definitely disappointed in him so far

grossmann - good defensive defensemen, that's it. most of the flyers dmen are completely 1 dimensional. ask them to do anything else and they look lost. unfortunately, they have 1.5 good two-way dmen (timonen and the combination of mesz/coburn amount to .5 because they're so damn inconsistent)

tough to say what they do when the get a lead.. they rarely ever have one... but it definitely looks like they sat back today (outshot 17-3 in the 3rd)
