Hey Cobie & Flyers fans, big game here! One of two things will definitely happen. Either the Bolts are going to make you guys look really great (Bishop is hurt for rest of season) or it's going to be a really close, edge of your seat, fun type game! News has it that the Bolts called up Gudlevskis from AHL. Probably going to use him in this game, seems the Bolts don't want to use Lindy too much at all! Well I just stopped by to say hello & I can't wait until the game starts!!!! Peace my brothers & take care everyone.

Flyers need to get at least a point in this game - because it's a pretty good chance the Rangers beat the Sabres, so in order to stay in the race for the 2 seed they need points tomorrow

And I think they would use Gudlevskis, to be honest - maybe a different look against the Flyers - but the Flyers have to combat the speed of the Bolts, can't get in a run and gun - and stay out of the box, Ondrej Palat and Tyler Johnson have 7 SHG's combined this season

I agree with you my friend. Flyers have to play smart, match speed or hit hard, put as many SOG as they can blister out. Either net-minder for the Bolts haven't seen too much play time so the key for you guys will be shots & traffic in front. Bolts, as of late, have been playing like they just don't want anything to do with the playoffs but I have a feeling that will change in this game. Should be a fun one!

The key is to get good shots on the goalie, not just any shot - they need traffic in front of the net and make the goalie uncomfortable - any goalie can make a save if he sees the puck and doesn't have any players to deal with

Can the bolts just hurry up and trade us Stamkos is for cheap already? He plays the W great and that would give is the best and probably most skill one in hock with Stamkos - G - Jake. Hell subs he could even teach this team to shoot instead of ways pass first. God that looks so god on paper that it's starting to turn back into wood.

Lets get two points tonight! Move your feet boys!

Man, it is good to have the kind of one-two punch we now enjoy with Mase and Emery. I can remember years where we went with krappy goaltending and the thought that we would never again have that area of the Flyers fixed. We do now!!

Nice to see Gus in there

 

[Cobiemonster]

These damn turnovers are already killing the Flyers - 1-0 Tampa

 

[flyersfan4706]

That was quick

 

[mall3013]

Flyers just can't solve these teams like TB, NJ, or NYR for whatever reason? We need to tie this shit up quickly.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers are just too cute on the power play - they need to get more shots on net - tired of all this passing and not enough shots, need to get dirty on the power play

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers trail 1-0 after one period - they were a little bit better later in the period but they have to find a way to get some goals against Lindback - he's not this great

 

[flyersfan4706]

At least we've picked it up

 

[Cobiemonster]

Flyers going on the PK - need a kill here

 

[flyersfan4706]

How did Callahan not score there?
