Post-Game Talk: #72 | FLYERS 4 at Hurricanes 2 | Sat., Mar. 17, 2018, 7:00 pm ET

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Clement used to play for the flyers?

He's basically the reason we have championships.

 

[Magua]

Since Sanheim was recalled for the Winnipeg game on 3/10, 5 players are two or three full cuts above from a 5v5 possession standpoint. I’ll let everyone draw their own conclusions.

It’s only a 4 Game sample size, but when you add it to the rest of the year...

It doesn't matter!

Clement used to play for the flyers?

before they traded him to the atlanta flames yes

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Clement used to play for the flyers?

And he got a case of Tastykakes for a certain goal in 1975.

This game was all Lyon. Wasn't impressed with his first couple games at all but the kid has battled back and was great today and has been great since those games. Old school goalie that fights for every save. Kids and Lyon brought this team back from the dead as they were greatly outplayed until the 3rd

I wish we could combine Mrazek's raw talent with the fight of Lyon.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

OOOH, microwave your thoughts, everyone - it's time for Chevrolet Hot Take with Junk and Alex Trebek.

Don’t know as much hockey history as I should if you’re being serious lol. Just got into it maybe 4 years ago.

Yeah he was on the 73-74 and 74-75 Cup teams but only was a regular on the latter.

Oh, I'm dead serious, give or take. You know how he always spews bunk and hocum and looks like he dressed himself in the dark? Back in the 1970s, guys needed that sort of tomfoolery to help them recover from the physical play and all the unrecorded concussions delivered with man strength. Bill's comic relief allowed guys like Clarkie and Parent to relax and thrive.

FF to 2:35 of this, probably his biggest goal.



But this was the other highlight. JXC will tell you all about it.

Same, I've only been following the Flyers for 6 years, so I'm still kind of picking up on things & learning as I go.

 

[Juicy Pop]

Can't stay for the 3rd. Maybe I'll dream of a victory and wake up in another dimension where it actually happens.

Hello Flyers' fans of whatever universe this happens to be. I have traveled long and far from a dark and scary place where Brandon Manning is considered a top-4 defenseman by our coach.

Dare I ask, have I found sanctuary in a more sane reality?

 

[Foggy14]

If you love roller coasters ...

you'll love being a Flyers fan!

Nice work by Leighton, I mean Lyon, keeping us in that one.

TK is a pretty good player, for a third liner.

Great pinch and assist by Sanheim.

Wonderful work by Patrick, and great pass from Oskar, on the Jake goal.

Simmer has been going through a rough patch (my theory; his shoulder has been jacked most of the season) but he had some nice plays tonight, and the outlet to Flip was great.

Raffl is cannon!

 

[baudib1]

Taking Konecny off the top line really disturbs me. He's worked his ass off all year and provides energy night in, night out, he deserves to be rewarded and more importantly, he needs skilled players around him to be effective.

 

[FlyerFaithful17]

before they traded him to the atlanta flames yes

He went to the Caps first.

Learned everything from NHL 14-17. Wish I followed it when I was younger.

He needs to be surrounded by that veteran presence.. oh wait.. I don't think he could have any two better players than G & Couts to learn from.

Hakstol is a dolt.

 

[onlylordsvsmorebp]

if raffl could fuking score he'd be dangerous...

 

[YamCork]

Wish I followed it when I was younger.

Same, better late than never I guess!

 

[Magua]

When TK went back to the 1st line in the 3rd for some shifts, it was like night and day in terms of offensive flow.

If we are lucky, when they are down next game it'll happen again.

Never admit to that. What you should do instead is write long post-game essays and let us figure it out for ourselves.

fire the coach but they won't put that on the show lol

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

He went to the Caps first.

He also scored a hat trick against the Flyers in his first season with the Flames, which was less than a year after being traded.

he was a great pk checking line player

"They havent won anything since they made the awful trade sending that clement kid to the capitals"
