If we can score first, we win this game....
If the Devils score first, we may not even make it onto the scoreboard cause they will shut em out.

Just my two cents. Hoping for a win or at least a point!

 

[toughfighter83*]

we need someone other than giroux that has a rocket shoot and score otherwise this team is going to be snakebitten.

4-0 Flyers,,

Schenn, Harts (2), Laughton

 

[Unstable]

Thanks for the awesome thread, God I missed these.

Anyone think Lavi will change up special teams a bit? Or is two games too small a sample?

 

[FlyersFan61290]

Hartnell giroux Schenn
Read Couturier Voracek
Simmons Laughton Fedotenko
Wellwood Talbot Mcginn

Give me this lineup please.

i would be ok with this or even swapping wellwood and fedotenko for a few shifts.

Were the Devils expecting Larsson to start as a 7th d-man or has he been disappointing?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

im prolly the biggest fan of Leights here, and even i dont think he'll start a game yet.

Bryz has not been even a hint of a problem yet. i dont think thers any chance they use Leighton tonite.

We have plenty more back-to-backs...I support using Bryz in both games over the weekend to get him off and running, but I expect Leighton next back-to-back.

Check out this piece written about him yesterday:

[swflyers93]

We need a W.

 

[JLHockeyKnight]

I think Bryz has been very solid thus far and it's a really good sign going forward. I hope this team can resolve the break downs it's been having. If that happens, I think Bryz could have a Vezina caliber season.

If the defense can get it's positioning down, Bryz's numbers will improve inherently. So hopefully they'll help him help them.

 

[Clyde Donovan]

Flyers really haven't played bad 5 on 5. Pk has been the killer.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

According to Randy Miller:

Lavy really shaking up lines after 0-2 start. All 4 changed for tonight

Gervais skated in Foster's place (Sam C. says "Foster maintenance day.")

 

[Karma]

Giroux to 4th line.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Per Sam C. @ Inq.:

Hart-G-Vor;
Fed-Coot-Read;
McGinn-Schenn-Sim;
Talb-Laught-Wellwood.
D change: Mez- Gervais

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Like Jake on the top line. Like Schenn back to C. Not really sure about Fedotenko and McGinn in top 9. Would rather swap Talbot and McGinn. Fedotenko has been terrible so far, but Talbot and Couturier isn't really a combo I want to see. That second listed line is definitely the biggest concern. Read has been invisible as well

 

[FlyersFan61290]

would prefer anyone on the 4th to take feds spot on the second. other then that i like them.

 

[OriginJM]

I think Feds is going to do excellent, and the 2nd line is just fine for him

 

[flyersfan420]

lets get a better start and a w... and please stay out of the box.. the penalties have killed us so far

 

[tuckrr]

4-1 flyers
Simmonds, Giroux, Voracek, L. Schenn

Kovalchuk

 

[BillDineen]

Fedotenko, Talbot, B.Schenn, Couturier and Read have been the weakest forwards vs their ability so far. Hopefully Simmonds can boost Schenn, but McGinn his them for his first nhl game likely won't help.

 

[sa cyred]

Mcginn worked really well with schenn in the ahl. He is probably trying to get him moving with someone he has played with this season.

Really hoping when Briere comes back feds and talbot are on the 4th line

 

[JVR21]

Not liking Feds on the second line. He's been brutal.

 

[Qyburn]

Yeah, or wherever they're meant to end up, it'll get figured out that much quicker when Danny's back.

 

[ORYX]

I think Lavy is trying for some of that Age related black magic we saw out of Dallas and Anahiem this weekend....

Don't think we'll see it.

I'm open to getting the offense going though, whatever it takes.

Starting 0-3 is in a shortened season putting themselves behind an 8-ball early. Wont be the end of the world as I suspect this board will react if that happens.
