Are these Gamescore cards cumulative or is there any type of control/rate for TOI?
Yep, it’s cumulative.

Frost has to be healthy scratched for 2 more games to be eligible for a conditioning assignment, without requiring waivers.Can they send down Frost for a conditioning stint next month?
Yeah that's part of the reality of playing possession based hockey.Sanheim has been good this year but he had a handful of turnovers tonight too

He needs to get used to putting a little extra zip on his passes. He needs to take into account his own massive gravitational pull now.They were heavy turnovers though. 20 pounds of muscle turnovers.
spoiler:Atkinson Tippy Hot Rod 3 worst fwds , wonder who comes out next game ?
Obviously Shit Truck doesn’t count , his worst in awhile.
Fun game. Flyers actually played well.
Ersson wasn't great today, but he hadn't played in a while.
Good candidate to get benched in Tippett, but he was out there in OT, so I doubt Frost comes in for him. Laughton or even Frost would be better LW options than Tippett.
theyll have to start making hard decisions soon. cates is just not the guy for 2C, he can do everything he's good at further down the lineup and on the penalty kill and still be a really consistent defensive player, but we need to identify our most consistent and effective offensive players to keep building around. its nice that brink is playing so well, but outside of konecny couturier farabee everyone else has been hit or miss and the top line isnt always going to have big games. 2nd lines by virtue of being the 2nd most consistent players on a given team are going to make mistakes, teams will always turn over pucks at shitty times, but Noah Cates cant score between the legs goals in close through tight checking, hes not a weapon in overtime, he doesnt have the foot speed to push defenses back, and we've already seen how many chances have died on his stick. Its not even fair at this point to send Tyson down or bring anyone else up if the centers they play with are Laughton and Cates. If the the 4th line is built to score less than 10 goals this season we gotta make that up somewhere else.The Flyers just need to keep with the rebuilding/"retooling" plan. They do need to add a few additional pieces to the pipeline (although Cutter and Michkov look to be decent adds to me), I'd be more concerned that this team ends up as a borderline playoff team and they spend assets.
The NHL really seems to be more about not screwing up your team and cap space rather than anything else. They should probably ship Laughton off and keep going since I'm ok with re-signing TK.
Three SHGs in a game for Flyers:
Quickest two SHGs (unofficially) from what I can find:
- vs. Washington 1983 -- Howe, Dvorak, Sinisalo
- vs. Calgary 1985 -- Poulin, Propp, Propp
- at NY Islanders 1996 -- Podein, Otto, Brind'Amour
- at Dallas 2023 -- Konecny, Konecny, Walker
- Craven/Howe 26 seconds at New Jersey 1986
- Barber/Barber 27 seconds at Los Angeles 1978 (the game Rick MacLeish had 80 stitches across his throat and then had a drag from a cigarette... bleep ya!).
- Howe/Barber 32 seconds vs. Hartford 1983
- Konecny/Walker 47 seconds at Dallas 2023
Really? They started 5-2-1 in October last year, and this season they removed Provorov and Angelo while returning Couturier and Atkinson. Now they are 3-1-1 with the following games left this month:No one... could've predicted this start.....
He also missed a day of practice, so he might be carrying a knock. Unfortunately, they don't have anyone on the roster who could replace him in the top 9, so he has to play every game and possibly make the injury worse.-Tippett isn’t the same player as last season. He’s not as fast, last year he looked like the fastest skater in the league, with supreme separation speed. He doesn’t seem to have the exceptional top gear. He was taken wide and sent to the boards two or three times. It could be due to the side he’s on.
