OFFICIAL THREE STARS:

1. Giroux
2. Pickard
3. Galchenyuk

We can complain about Sanheim not getting enough ice time all we want (and that's all justified) but honestly, i'm just relieved that we don't have to suffer through watching farmer or mandog out there.

 

[Oskar Man]

This guy Colby sucks

 

[Stizzle]

And I couldn’t imagine playing 4 minutes in a 60 minute game like NAK just did. That’s goon **** right there.

Hextall is a liar. He emphatically said this would not happen.

 

[CerpinTaxt]

Hak could coach blindfolded and probably do just as well. "oh they just scored a goal eh? send out the heavy players". "whats that sanheim just started a rush that created a goal? better bench him next shift".

 

[Jtown]

Colby if you are reading this, quit. Find a new job preferably one where your personality is confined to an enclosed area inhabited by no one

 

[Striiker]

Hextall is a liar. He emphatically said this would not happen.

Another good sign. Coach and GM aren't on the same page.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Hextall is a liar. He emphatically said this would not happen.

He’s a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life, and mean.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Man a Flyers video ripping Hak and Lappy would be the best Flyer news in years.

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Awwwwwww yeah

I will continue (as you said justifiably) to complain about Sanheims lack of ice time, but I can certainly get behind this sentiment. Can’t underestimate how bad those two were. They were significantly worse than any of the six D (including Hagg and Folin) that the Flyers iced tonight.

Where has this effort been all year??? Its mind boggling how we play decent on the road and pathetic at home. Been that way since Haks been hired. Anyway another strong performance by Patrick. He's not flashy but is starting to show a solid all around game in all 3 zones. When he was drafted I envisioned Joe Thorton but now i'm starting to think Trevor Linden type C. Reminds me of Johansson as well.

Simmonds continues to be impressive and G had a great night as well. Hopefully this energy doesn't die when we get back home.

If patrick can get even faster and improve his shot he will be a 2 way stud

 

[Oskar Man]

Colby just reeks of "my dad got me this job".

Underrated comment.

Dude NAK didn't even get a shift in the 2nd period!!! I would have taken a 2 minute shift the next time I touched the ice.

Conspiracy theory...

Hak's benching of Sanheim was an angle shoot in order to re-insert AMac back in the lineup next game. When Sanheim made that sick play on the Couturier goal it saved his roster spot. Hak knew he couldn't justify his angle anymore.

Colby’s last name is flyers. Middle name snider

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I rather have Clement back over Therien & Cohen. He at least supplies entertainment with his delusional ways.

Therrien is great in the studio

Sweet, I've had two enjoyable games now.


Everyone needs to be appreciating Giroux while they can.

Id enjoy him more if he laid the body more. no heart. Hakstol is literally breathing the life in to him.

 

[deadhead]

It was an interesting game.
Arizona plays like Vegas on steroids, but with no skill. They're fast and fast to the puck, constantly pressuring you all over the ice, but they also get themselves out of position and give up big scoring chances.
It was a challenge for the Flyers, who tend to play a deliberate game, trying to set things up, and as the game went along, you could see them speeding up their decisionmaking.

The line that struggled the most was the Lindblom - Patrick - Voracek line.
Laughton - Lehtera - NAK hardly played b/c they were overwhelmed.
The Weal line held their own, as did the first line.
The player who fared the best? TK.

Provorov really regressed after a good road trip, and Ghost struggled as well.

And Pickard might be a real goalie, stay tuned.

 

[Tripod]

So let's be clear...NAK is being benched and his ice time is going to Weise.

 

[CerpinTaxt]

Wow 15 pts has the Flyers tied for 2nd, but with also 2 more games played. Eh, its something. Islanders being 1st just goes to show how much coaching can really make a difference. G'night Flyers board.
