Post-Game Talk: October 6, 2013| Flyers 1 at Hurricanes 2

[Embiid]

At this point, even an interim coach would get us similar to better results.

Just get Pete out of the position.

Roo - "Just got to stick to the plan"

What plan do you speak of Roo?

Yeah I heard that interview...stick to the game plan of losing and looking bad while doing so....

 

[Beef Invictus]

Rinaldo smacking Staal was neat. Couturier did a good job making a chance while double teamed.

The thing is, he did it alone. That's the one thing I keep thinking of when I'm watching these guys: this is a group of individuals, not a team.

Edit: And Simmonds definitely looks pissed about everything.

 

[CSKA1974]

Why the hell did I stayed up for this crap show?! I should have known better... The game against Florida is the only one I expect the team to get a W this month (with Lavy), but I won't watch that...

Hm. WitT 15 total goals on net Thomas will shut them out

 

[BernieParent]

You do that behind closed doors, not publicly.

Hopefully, Timonen is throwing things around in the dressing room right now.

 

[Embiid]

This team is just a bunch of talkers....btw G also mentioned how they have to play 60 mins!

 

[Appleyard]

Hopefully, Timonen is throwing things around in the dressing room right now.

Can we get a Kimmo and Kapanen coaching due? Those guys with their hockey IQ would be fantastic I imagine!

If only Kimmo was not still our best/joint best D man.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Hopefully, Timonen is throwing things around in the dressing room right now.

Hopefully Timonen is throwing the coaching staff around.

 

[Evergreen]

I am waiting for that one player with the balls to throw the team under the bus. All I keep hearing is "we are doing good things, just cant score". No. You arent doing good things. 0-3 is NOT ok.

Yeah, the Giroux interview after the game was absurd. Not one meaningful quote from our captain. He said we just need to "stick to our plan" and that we "just couldn't put one in." Really? We were badly outshot, couldn't break out of our zone, lost every board battle, made dozens of turnovers, and didn't have sustained pressure in the offensive zone whatsoever.

I also hate how the talking heads at CSN haven't mentioned our horrendous systems. They just say we need to have "full 60 minute efforts" and limit the turnovers. These guys are essentially employed by the Flyers and are afraid to say anything negative about any other person in the organization. It's lousy.

It'd be one thing if they had played the Penguins, Devils, and Rangers and were 0-3. However, the Maple Leafs, Habs, and Canes? No excuse for that.

I don't hate Holmgren as much as some here do, but if Laviolette isn't replaced soon, he can go too.

 

[orangecrush8]

Holy crap to that Rutherford quote, it's clearly Lavy's MO

 

[TheLegendkiller]

Its pointless to complain about post-game comments. They will always be arbitrary and standard, nobody is going to start throwing around blame. Complain about the product on the ice.

 

[Larry44]

Hopefully Timonen is throwing the coaching staff around.

Timonen's retirement has really hurt the team early in the season.

I always turn it off now. they are terrible.

Let me add:

• Leafs on the second night of a back-to-back
• Canadiens missing Pacioretty
• Canes (no addition necessary)

Exactly. Im sure the players would love to say Lavi's system is no longer effective and that he needs to go but they can't say things like that publicly. Just have to stick to the standard cliches until Homer and company do something about it

 

[Primary Assist*]

So with the #1 pick in the 2014 NHL draft are they taking Reinhart who plays center or going for a D-man like Ekblad? If Reinhart continues near his 2+ PPG pace gonna be hard even if D is a bigger need.

Ekblad is now being compared to Denis Potvin. He would go a long way in solving their transition game woes.

 

[SgtJoseph*]

Tough one ! Lavy let in a easy one in the 1st, then Homer turned the puck right over to a player in the slot for the 2nd Carolina goal............Bottom line is the PLAYERS need to work it out .Our goal tending is a positive, hopefully our goalies can stay tough until the rest of the lads can get their game going forward .

 

[Appleyard]

Yeh, you say something like that and you are smeared for the rest of your career for being arrogant, not a team player, manipulative and a bad locker room guy.

You stick to the cliches and people jump on you for not telling it as it is.

It is a lose lose situation really. The second option is just the lesser evil.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Laughton has 9 pts so far in 2 and a half game, so that's good

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Just get Pete out of the position.

Roo - "Just got to stick to the plan"

What plan do you speak of Roo?

Lavis brilliant plan of attack attack attack.. even if its utterly clear for the world to see, that it DONT work..

 

[GingerFetish]

what ****ing attack?

 

[bennysflyers16]

No practise tommorow, maybe he is getting canned ?

Lavy isnt making the right adjustments. You can soley blame it on the players yet each season we get new players yet same result.

 

[Jtown]

Holy crap to that Rutherford quote, it's clearly Lavy's MO

what quote?
