Gallant had a cup of coffee with the Fishsticks....McIlrath we all know his story . Couple of dinosaurs now though toughing it out in the AHL likely never to see NHL again . Gallant has a knock out right hand...he is deadly . What a way to make a living ! I was going to mention......one time in the 80's this was the norm for Flyer Ranger games .....fun times for fans .

What a relic

Switching Lafreniere and Kreider is a win in my books. Now, I just hope they come out and play well enough to be left together for at least the game. I'm optimistic!

I'll bet Kravtsov gets time on the first line tonight. I feel he is a better fit. But that would screw up the bottom two lines. We'll see what happens. I don't believe Laff will last on the first line. Kravtsov has more speed and is a natural left winger.

Obviously would be nice to see Kravtsov move up to replace Blackwell, but that Kreider <-> Lafreniere swap was far more important to be honest. Hopefully it works.

Why? Team played like trash in front of him. Need to have faith in your starter. Absolutelly the right choice to go with Igor.

I've heard comparisons between Zac and Fox with both being very hockey smart. Having a high hockey IQ. If that's the case, There's a good chance Zac might never come out of the line up after tonight's debut. If he is half as smart as Foxy, with the natural skills he has, he might take to the NHL, like a fish to water. How great would that be?

And our 3rd blueline pair can really use an upgrade.

Well, he is the Rangers #1 goalie. Georgiev will start tomorrow.

Kravtsov should definitely be getting more looks with top9 players than he has. Especially with Blackwell being not great for a while now.

If it were up to me, our top three lines would be on the ice for like 90%+ of all the even strength time, and Howden-Rooney-Blackwell would get enough to keep their legs warm for their PK duty. And PP2 duty in Blackwell's case, I guess.

How many times does Sam refer to Zac Jones as Zack Jones?

Damn tonight would have been the game to go to, not tomorrow like I am. Tomorrow will feature Geo in net, and i’m sure Quinn will remove Jones from the lineup and put Laf on the 4th line.

Lol true, although does anyone actual believe these lines will stick or by 5 min in will we be back to the old lines?

 

[EdJovanovski]

It’s seeming like guys who are smaller shifty skaters are having more immediate impacts than the bigger mature guys who were dubbed as being NHL ready. Very curious how Jones will look

Playoffs or not.

I like smashing the Flyers 9-1.

Do it again.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Hopefully Jones exceeds expectations immediately, but man does he look small.

“4th line has been setting a tone” gee I wonder Why, Sam? Move Krav up already

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

whoof why is blackwell still on the 2nd line. It should be Kravtsov

 

[Cmox]

“_____ have really been struggling”..when ever this is announced they play the Rangers and look like the 2nd coming.

It's not happening. Quinn seems to like to roll 4 equal lines (lol), and with Kravtsov in the 4th that line is at least somewhat of a threat even with buffoons like Howden and Rooney.
