I'll take Simmonds he's due for a big game.

For the first time in a long time I'm not worried which goalie is starting...

[flyersfan4706]

Underwhelming loss thanks to the powerplay, but I won't lose any sleep over this game. Get it back in Boston tomorrow

 

[FlyerFinFan]

They looked like a team that hasn't played in 6 days....oh wait. Then get a back to back on the road who makes this shit up. Anyway looked good once they found their legs.

Strong first period, but the goals against to end a period and start a period are crushing. This was a tough pill to swallow because it seemed like we played well enough to win the game and the Stars sat back the entire third period, playing not to lose. I thought we carried the play throughout at least the 1st and 3rd periods, but two apparent mistakes by Manning seemed to be enough to cost us the game.

That said, the power play has to be better. We should've at least tied the game and took it to OT. Too many opportunities blown. Raffl should've scored in the 3rd. If it were Giroux or Voracek, that shot would've made it under the bar.
