GDT: #46 | FLYERS (A) vs. Rangers (H) | Thursday, Apr. 22, 2021 | 7:00 pm ET | ESPN+, MSG, NBCSP

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I am ready to donate a large sum of cash to do the same. You guys pick best location for it.

you want to fly a fire Benning banner here?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Myers in for Morin.

Patrick centers fourth line.

Rangers changes also noted in the OP.

 

[Striiker]

Hagg survives again. Like a cockroach.

 

[Striiker]

Don't want that top line. Kills center depth since all the bottom 9 Cs are sucking.

We need Giroux at center right now. Just put 11-28-93 back together.



Doesn't matter anymore, obviously, but still.

 

[deadhead]

G and Braun have both worn down the last 15 games, I'd rest them the second game.
G just isn't a center anymore for an extended stretch of games, his legs go and then his defense.

 

[Nizzle]

So weird to look at that lineup and compare it to the standings. There’s obviously some flaws but that should be a playoff team. Such a waste of a season.

Seriously? Come on.. thought it was obvious that I was suggesting we should do the same "type" of thing, and replace with Flyers ownership group and or Fletch.

I'm more annoyed by Hagg having to play the right side just to keep Ghost out of the top-4. Am also not convinced Ghost and Myers have figured out how to play with each other yet.

Could flip Ghost and Hagg instead of sinking all three pairs, or go with:

Provy-Ghost
Sanny-Braun
Haggy-Myers

Who knows, maybe the practice days have actually helped?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Felix Sandstrom has been added to the Flyers' roster.

no I wasn’t being serious. Next time I will use the lol

 

[TheKingPin]

Felix Sandstrom has been added to the Flyers' roster.

Only took them a few years to realize Elliot was a bad choice.

 

[Limeyjim]

Here's comes another loss.....5-2

 

[Hextallent63]

Out of curiosity how many players do you think there are like that in the NHL?

Enough

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Only took them a few years to realize Elliot was a bad choice.

With b-2-b games, could be that Lyon gets rested tonight (not dressed) but goes tomorrow. Post-deadline, rosters can be expanded.

Or Elliott gets rested tomorrow and Lyon-Sandstrom is a thing.

 

[Crescent Street]

Who cares?

sorry just saying enough sounded kind of dickish, I looked it up quick and was in the ballpark with my thinking of 40

That hit Trent Klatt put on Ken Gernander at the 5:00 mark on the YT clip was one of the changing moments of that game. Oddly enough, the two players were married to twin sisters.

Klatt scored the GWG late in the third period.

I recall Klatt saying that family dinners were a bit awkward for a while after that hit

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Starters: Elliott (vs. Shesterkin), Sanheim-Hagg, JVR-Laughton-Konecny

Scratches: Felix Sandstrom, Carter Hart, Sam Morin, Tanner Lacyznski, Carsen Twarynski, Jackson Cates

Referees: Jean Hebert and Kelly Sutherland

 

[BiggE]

Well, we don't need two Kevs, so something's got to give.

One Kev is too many

 

[BiggE]

Hagg survives again. Like a cockroach.

Hagg is the Terminator. He terminates good play all over the ice

 

[BiggE]

Flyers hockey

 

[CapnZin]

I am not lying... the rangers broadcast said - and I quote - “It is impossible to replace Jacob Trouba”

Average defensemen with 8 million dollar cap hits don’t grow on trees.

 

[CapnZin]

Average defensemen with 8 million dollar cap hits don’t grow on trees.

Calling Trouba an average defenseman is a compliment. He’s arguably the worst defenseman that’s heavily overpaid. You can put some in that category, but he likely takes the cake.

 

[deadhead]

Sanheim - Hagg have done very well since the COVID break:

CF 57.77%, CFrel +3.27, xGF 59.92%, xGFrel +8.75

The two pairs that have struggled? Sanheim - Myers and Provorov - Braun.
Should be
Provorov - Ghost
Sanheim - Hagg
Morin - Myers
play Braun every other game with this schedule.
