Whats up Mall!!! Doing great even though its Monday Hope all is cool with you.

Everything is well. I'm finally back home from a month long of training out east. Glad to get it done and back to family life again. How have you been young man? Btw, as you can see I have taken over your old gig of the nice avi's. As a Husker fan posted earlier, He wishes he was a bike seat, and had this beauty riding him all the way to Delaware. lol. I gotta agree with him. He lost his avi as well to my Buckeyes.

Big Brother watches out for Avis like that and every now and the cracks down on it and i got tired of removing the girls.I however do like your Avi and win i was the inside of the bra. Thats is the best Buckeye Avi you have ever put up. Glad to hear your doing well! If we could just get some easy wins well all be better off.

Flyers’ high-powered offense isn’t leading to wins the way it should be

As the videos in that article show, both goals Neuvy gave up in the third period were absolutely unacceptable. That probably should've been a 4-3 win in our favor at worst, but we didn't get a single point.

I think the defense is coming around, but when are our goalies going to start playing like we know they can?

The shortie to make it a 5-3 game absolutely unacceptable!!!

In midst of challenging stretch, Scott Laughton unsure of Flyers' plans but feels good

 

[lasgop8]

Ghost score first tonight.

 

[4thstreet]

Well,we scored the 1st goal,and I'll leave it at that.

They pressured our D hard which led to a lot of bad turnovers. That may be a blue print to playing against us this season.

This team needs to start playing better at home period.

Yet another game we had no business losing in my opinion. Manning had a rough game. He was on the ice and essentially victimized during both goals against. Between the post shot by Konecny with an empty net, the two breakaways by Giroux and how dominant our power play looks, this should've been two points.

You do have to love Simmonds obliterating Ericsson and Konecny destroying both Ott and Abdelkader. These two players are the heart and soul of our team and it really got our guys going.

At times we looked a step slow everywhere, especially late in the 1st period, but I think we got better as the game progressed.

Giroux was a monster last night and our second line continues to dominate. Not enough shots and offensive pressure though altogether, but I do think the Wings got away with several interference calls. Our power play should've had more than just two opportunities and I think it would've changed the game, for sure.

Between Detroit and Montreal, I am sick and tired of playing teams that have seemingly unlimited speed and goalies with the best numbers in the Nhl. Makes it difficult to score goals and not turn the puck over. We definitely put a few holes in the armor of Price, but Howard was very fortunate last night.

Simmonds with the one punch KO was awesome and i thought we were going to get up after that but it took until TK got mad at missing they open net and destroyed Abdelkader.

There were a ton of interference calls that shouldve been made on our dump ins that were missed

 

[lasgop8]

Which Flyers forwards have been best in the offensive zone so far in 2016-17?

 

[lasgop8]

Its nice to see Couts flying around all three zones on every shift these days. For years he would just glide around for weeks at a time. He is playing up to his potential and he is only getting better.

Calgary waives veteran d-man Grossmann

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw the interference calls. The high sticking call that Dekeyser drew was a complete dive and should've been called unsportsmanlike conduct, yet they reward him for it with the penalty call in his favor. Then all of the blatant interference the Wings get away with and none of it is called. Pretty ridiculous.

These refs should not be calling a penalty unless they see it with their own eyes. Don't base everything off of the reaction of the player. If that means some stuff goes uncalled, so be it. I'd rather that happen than calling shit that isn't there.

And on the interference, that is something we can all see even from our televisions. At least the worst of those need to be called or we're just letting the other team illegally control the way we play.

And the best part is that if you had to pick two guys on their entire roster that you'd really like to slam through the boards with no hesitation, it would possibly be Ott and Abdelkader...Lol

Travis Konecny scoring major points with the fans on those crushing hits. I hope he plays his whole career here. He's the exact kind of player we love. Ultra competitive and not afraid to get physical, despite his size.

Flyers send Laughton, Lyubimov down to AHL

Gonna miss Lyubi i like his style of play hustle hustle hustle

 

[lasgop8]

I just saw this and didn't realize that we have played 8 consecutive one goal games.

 

[awaz]

Flyers send Laughton, Lyubimov down to AHL

They called him back up today.

Lines in practice today were:

Schenn-Giroux-Simmonds
Konecny-Couturier-Voracek
Raffl-Cousins-Weise
Read-PEB-Lyubimov
Vandevelde

Hopefully that holds for tomorrow.
