[Maverick426h]

I'll take Voracek. He's been buzzing around the last couple games. He'll probably just end up getting the primary assist on the first goal instead.

 

[flyersfan4706]

Giroux.

Everyone make sure to appreciate Streit, Raffl, and Read's last game as Flyers

 

[Cobiemonster]

Claude Giroux

Note: Jake Voracek is out today

 

[wbon22]

Giroux, I think he is due for one of those dominating performances.

 

[EVille3]

I'm heading down to the game today. I'll take simmer to light the lamp first. Let's go flyers!!!

 

[chy1127]

Schenn

 

[wbon22]

Is it really wrong that while I am hoping the Flyers are competitive and win games that part of me does not want them in the playoffs this year?

 

[wbon22]

lots of jump from both reams to open play.
Neuvirth really reminds me of NItty sometimes.

 

[wbon22]

Flyers' left D out of position leads to a Yote's goal.

 

[wbon22]

WOW...Flyers get away with one and draw a penalty.

Time for the PP to net one eh?

 

[wbon22]

Well that was quick...and Mark Streit isn't any more....get's caught flat footed on an ill-advised pass from G and that is all she wrote for the PP

 

[wbon22]

the answer to the magical question: Why is AMac such a frustrating player? Because he has all the tools. He can skate so well, had a nice shot and is capable of quick soft passes. he is a fearless shot blocker and keeps his stick active in all three zones.

The problem is that he doesn't play to his strengths and he frankly has an AHL head when it comes to seeing and reacting to the game.

 

[wbon22]

Wow...the ref's really have no where to go the way they are blowing the whistle.

 

[wbon22]

GOAL!!!!
PP Marker from G (I think)

 

[wbon22]

500th point of his career for G. Gost doesn't get a point but his little play along the boards leads to that goal.

 

[wbon22]

Wild first period. Mark Streit has his 400th NHL point to go along with G's 500th.
Gost does all the little things to lead to the Flyers PP goal without getting a point.
Scott Laughton on LW looks good.

 

[wbon22]

Flyers have to clean up some of this ragged play. Too many opportunities. Neuvirth has been really strong so far.

 

[wbon22]

This is too ragged. Flyers have to 1. win a face off and 2. generate some offensive zone time

 

[wbon22]

more special teams play. chance to add to the lead.
