Flyers 3 Stars 2013-14

[FlyerFinFan]

I'm so happy for Mase looking back it seemed that everyone was hoping he'd fail and he's turned the trade into one of the better ones that Homer has made. Love the stability in net now. Apparently Parent had all a chat with him and he's went nuts ever since....

She stays through Olympic break hopefully 5-1 at that time.

1- Mase
2-Mase

Honorable mention Simmonds who was a monster Couts played his best game in weeks

He played great early had a tough stretch and back to being the Mase from last season and early this year. He's playing with confidence cutting angles better controlling rebounds better and playing much tighter where nothing is leaking through these days.

I think MAse is really beginning to turn a corner into the next level. He'll need another year or two, but he is turning into that net minder we have not had in a very long time. Emery is a nice back-up having a cup in his pocket already and Bernie's presence is really rubbing off on Mase and the team. I like what is slowly transpiring and with rest with the Olympic break, I think we may have something here.

I think it helps that he plays almost every game now and can get in a rythm. Berube finally is using him right.

 

[Retroram52]

Meszaros for two excellent assists
Giroux is on fire and he continued his great play.
Emery had a superb game. Almost a shut-out.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Ray Emery - He was amazing today, a huge reason for them getting these two points
2) Claude Giroux - Another strong game for him, scoring a goal
3) Andrej Meszaros - After a short hiatus, he came back in the lineup and was really good

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Yep agreed on all accounts boys....enjoy the Oly's hopefully its Canada vs USA in the finals!

 

[lasgop8]

1- Geeeeeeee game tying goal a nd three points
2- Jake Scoracek 3 points and stuck up for teamates

Honorable mention :
Couts nice steal and assist
Vinnie GWG

[flyersfan4706]

While Giroux was a beast yesterday I thought Couturier was a monster as well.

 

[lasgop8]

1- Gee- for dominating
2- Scoraceck- 2 goals 6 shots and speed speed speed
3-Read 2 assists and was just on the puck all night offensively and defensively

Honorable mention-the whole 4th line We are a different team with rinaldo in the line up

 

[EVille3]

Yes...love watching Rinaldo set the tone early by laying the wood. He gets his whole team and crowd into the game. He has also cut down on the stupid penalties.

I didnt realize how much he meant until a few weeks ago when he was hurt we were a far different team.

 

[Retroram52]

1-Read for two goals and just great play all game long.
2-Hartnall and Lecav for scores and excellent passing.
3-Mase for great saves all game long and he gets the shut-out.
Honorable mention-a host of flyers that just played great for three quarters-Raffl, Giroux, L.Schenn, and Grossman doing the tough things to win big.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Everybody gets a star today

 

[Retroram52]

1-Simmonds with goals and almost the HT
2. B.Schen for getting us started in the firstpicking up from Saturday
3. Mase for gutsy saves throughout the game
Honorable mention-Couturier, Lecavalier, Grossman, Read, and Downie for just balls-to-the-wall play in both games.

 

[Cobiemonster]

1) Wayne Simmonds - He was tremendous on this game and was big on the power play
2) Sean Couturier - His work against Crosby and Malkin was outstanding
3) Steve Mason - He made some really big saves later in this game when the Penguins had more pressure

It's easy to forget that this kid is 21 years old for another 9 months when he's playing at this high of a level. It is really something to behold and I truly hope he is a Flyer for life.

Patience is really starting to pay off with this young group of forwards that we have here.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Agreed on all counts Mav we need to soak this up and enjoy the growth of the youngsters....can't wait to get Laughton into the fold next!
