Post-Game Talk: #4: FLYERS at Flames, Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2019, 9:00 pm ET

[Jtown]

Tk had 10 seconds left , he had to try a Hail Mary.

Giroux giveaway was what started it all

I rarely say this but giroux was bad today

 

[Outlaw Samurai]

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

The last two games were awful, save for the third period against Vancouver.

I would have been happy with a 0.500 record through Edmonton and that's the worst it will be now. Don't like how we got here, but the sky isn't falling yet.

 

[Juicy Pop]

Remember brothers, we're in this nightmare together,

Together.

Yes. His worst game in a long time

 

[occultist goat]

call me crazy but how much you want to bet the lack of energy cause its signing stewart insteated of bring up a younger kid.

 

[Here4ThaLids]

Flyers: Undefeated in regulation when Bunny plays.
Also Flyers: Pointless when Stewart plays.

 

[Appleyard]

 

[Tripod]

that was a true stinker

Hope AV keeps the line changes he made in the 3rd period

But the PP....Christ just let them create and go back to what has worked WITH a sprinkle of the new stuff just to keep team off guard.

 

[DaphneLion]

Why did I stay up to watch this?

 

[Striiker]

Yep send a message to Ghost but play Robert ****ing Hagg 3 more minutes at ES because of how great he played.

Oh Ghost led D in CF% and the entire team in xGF%.

He played much better after a very poor first period.

Those fancy booklearnin stats mean nothin. He isn’t HEAVY

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Flyers: Undefeated in regulation when Bunny plays.
Also Flyers: Pointless when Stewart plays.

I don't want to be like "Atoadaso," but I don't see what choice I have.

 

[Striiker]

But really, who could've guessed the team would look better with these changes?

Oh, most of us? Yeah...

This is why you make improvements BEFORE problems force you to. Be PROACTIVE instead of REACTIVE. And the sad things is, there's a TON of changes that still need to be made, which should be obvious, but won't be touched.

Stop sabotaging your star players and maybe you'll get better results.

 

[Stizzle]

From a strategic standpoint that looked like a Scott Gordon coached team. Much different than what we saw the previous few games.

 

[Here4ThaLids]

Hayes not only had way, waaaaaay more PP time in this game than Couturier, he also had the most PP time on the team.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Calgary smothered them in the NZ. Icings galore.

I saw a 5 man unit of Stewart-Raffl-Pitlick-BRaun-Gostisbehere. I'd rather not see that again.

Not sure putting your lines in a blender 3 games into the season, when you were playing well, was a good idea. Seems like overcoaching.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I hope we can all soon agree that Therrien, at the very least, is a ****ing idiot.

 

[Flyrs21]

Maybe it wasn't Hakstols fault

 

[Embiid]

This team is still barely watchable....

Hart is the only thing having me watch the games mostly..​

 

[Striiker]

I hope we can all soon agree that Therrien, at the very least, is a ****ing idiot.

All the coaches are. That much has become clear.

 

[baudib1]

Not double-shifting Couturier/Giroux trailing in third is pretty dumb. Not playing Ghost or Sanheim over Provorov with goalie pulled is dumb.

Positives: Elliott played fine. I predict he will be fine at under 35 games.
TK is still a god.
Niskanen is really solid.

Negatives:
Almost everything else.

Flyers really need a skilled center and a skilled winger in the bottom 6. They need an upgrade on Hagg. Too bad they don't have anyone in the organization who could fill those roles.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Hayes not only had way, waaaaaay more PP time in this game than Couturier, he also had the most PP time on the team.

Gotta justify that contract somehow.

 

[Jtown]

Lets just trade giroux to the preds and start anew. This is the hayes era

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

We waited two months for that?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Gotta justify that contract somehow.

Maybe Alain had goofy French-Canadian sex with a really tall, gawky, ugly camel on a visit to Marrakesh and Hayes is his literal son. Stranger things have happened.
