**** this team man. **** BERUBE!

 

[Sniped]

This is the definition of too little, too late.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Berube is a Fat Slob.


Zero reason for Vinny to be out there at the end over Couturier or Laughton.

 

[Striiker]

kill me

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Can we please start dumping the junk?

 

[Jtown]

mcdavid

 

[Nizzle]

At least the last 8 minutes or so were somewhat exciting

 

[pacehimself]

Now that the excitement is over I'll ask again...anyone know if there are any good prospects coming out of the draft besides mcdavid and eichel? Im trying to find a silver lining to the season since we aren't gonna makes the playoffs but we aren't gonna get either one of those guys

 

[bungle]

Back to back two of the worst Flyers games I've ever watched

 

[MadFerIt95*]

Zacha gonna look good in the Orange and Black

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Benching Voracek and Giroux to playing less than 18 and 20 (respectively) minutes each is unacceptable.

 

[Appleyard]

Another game where if the PKing was even average they likely come away with at least 1 point.

Just laughable they have done nothing about it... even when it is not conceding it is giving up great looks.

Also a game where the leading NHL scoring pair get less than 35 minutes combined.

 

[MorgantiDrinksBlood]

Vinny the best flyer on the ice tonight, sad. Well Coots maybe #1, Vinny #2

 

[flyerstime]

only caught the end of the third period. looks like i didnt miss much.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Odds of being here next year
vinny 100%
RJ 100%
Grossmann 100%
Berube 50%.
Coburn 90%
Luke 100%
Rinaldo 100%

 

[LexSea]

That was trash. The meathead behind the bench has to go.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

At least Mason is back

 

[Flyerfan4life]

fricken bergler...


team cant even tank properly

 

[Striiker]

****in Berube. If you play Giroux and Voracek an appropriate amount of time from the beginning of the game you probably won't need to play them for the last 4 minutes straight. He's saving them to use them in a situation that he's creating himself.

 

[Adam Warlock]

Every time this team takes a step forward, they take two giant steps back.

I don't buy the "they arent talented enough!" argument for a second. It all comes down to effort and mental toughness, and this team just does not bring it consistently enough...and hasnt for years now. I dont know if its the players, the coach, the GM, Snider, or whatever...but they need to figure it out. McDavid or Eichel would probably come in and be just as lethargic as the rest of the bunch.

Just a typical putrid effort tonight. Giroux had one of his worst games of the season.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Vinny the best flyer on the ice tonight, sad. Well Coots maybe #1, Vinny #2

Vinny wasn't grinding down a very good defensive unit. I thought Giroux and Voracek looked decent considering who they were matched against.


Raffl was struggling mightily though; he always looks most out of place on the top line against good defensive teams. That's where it would be really nice if the top line had a player that could do more than be a straight finisher.

 

[MadFerIt95*]

This had to be Voracek's worst game of the season by far. Hes been great all year though so Ill find it in my heart to forgive him.

 

[Adtar02]

Only reason I could see is coots looks better on the other side. Laughton though has looked good on the same side.

The team is clearly trying

They have pure garbage on D 5 of which have zero offensive ability

Also a coach that can't get out of his own way
