Post-Game Talk: #43| Lightning at FLYERS | Mon., Jan. 12, 2015

[King Forsberg]

VandeVelde is fine as a fourth liner.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

VandeVelde may be putting an end to Rinaldo's career here. He's not a long term guy but he's fine for now.

 

[Tankadelphia]

Decided to play a bit of GM mode on NHL 15 as the flyers and in 2021 gostibehere is a 88 overall and just had a 97 point season with 70 assists and 27 goals.... wut

Do we make the playoffs then?

 

[flyguy]

It's refreshing to see the Flyers thump Tampa. I feel like over the past few years they've always gotten the best of the Flyers.

 

[RinaldoZac]

Zac Rinaldo farewell tour?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Zac Rinaldo farewell tour?

why, cuz VdV scored a goal on a nite when practicaly everyone did ?

 

[RinaldoZac]

I take it that was the first game you've watched in a while? VdV was a star and Pebbles scored too, that line is playing good, our most effective line aside from the first. Find another 4th line in the NHL producing or being as effective as VdV, Pebbles and Vinny since the line was formed. <- That's not a question because you wont find one.

He's been a healthy scratch for four games now while the fourth line has been playing well for weeks now without Rinaldo on it.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

In the process of moving, so chose to watch tOSU over the Flyers tonight... either game was the right choice, apparently. Can't wait to watch the archive tomorrow, now, though.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I would like to thank Tampa Bay for starting Nabokov tonight.
So both times in the first game after it was announced that Mason would be out multiple weeks the Flyers score 7 goals. This team is still terrible but its good to see wins like this.

 

[Harold Bingo]

I missed this one but did a quadruple take when I saw the score on my phone.

7 goals? That won't happen again this season.

I don't think Nabokov's career record is very good against the Flyers.
I know he wasn't in for all 7, Bishop came in cold and gave up a few as well.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Fun to win one like this considering the season we're having.

Still can't believe the hate Coburn gets. It's approaching Carter level.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Entering this season, he was 10-4-2-0 with a 2.69 GAA in 17 games.

Meanwhile, entering this season, Tampa Bay has a history of 4-28-9 (.207) in Boston.

nothing approaches Carter level. Carter would have 3 goals and 2 assists and people would go "other than the 5 points I thought Carter was invisible"
But I think some of the Coburn hate is justified. He is a incredibly frustrating player

well then I stand corrected. I thought the Flyers ripped him a few times when he was with the Islanders.

I don't know how to make a copy of the page but the Tampa Bay guide is online and page 54 has the goalie's career record vs. each team:

http://lightning.nhl.com/v2/ext/pdf/2014/TBL_2014-15mediaguide.pdf

The Flyers went 10 years without beating San Jose and he was likely in goal for a bulk of those games.

that took some time getting down to the Nabokov page due to the size. I had forgotten about the lack of success the Flyers had against SJ when he was there.
Once again you showed me the way. thanks.

High and Wide strikes again

 

[BillDineen]

Good game by all, including the legend, double V. If they are going to win, pad them stats!

I actually wanted Nabby to be the Flyers backup. What a fool I am

 

[GingerFetish]

I want them to offer Rob Zepp a contract.

 

[chupanibre]

Bad decision to go to bed after the 1st period! Watched the rest this morning, and holy crap those PPs in the 2nd were relentless.

Zepp with a 100% NHL winning record!

 

[CSKA1974]

Went to the game last night- still puzzled with who were the people dressed in Orange and what didthey do to the flyers? Especially in D zone.
