[Garbage Goal]

Doubt it. Couturier is an elite defensive player and it looks like berube knows it. Nothing wrong with those toi totals.

This game shows why couturier is such an integral part of this teams core. He's a big game player

Yeah, pretty much. Aside from that Couturier put forth a noticeably great effort tonight while Giroux...not so much.

 

[Hockeypete49]

Gutsy, albeit not great effort. I'll take it.

Great games from Coburn, emery, schenn, and couturier

I agree. It's nice to get solid tending. Nice to see the kid bang in a few. Vinny has been a big help.

 

[FlyingPhilly]

I wonder how many people think Coburn has turned the corner? I think playing with Kimmo again has really helped him out. Probably proves that Coburn can't lead a pairing and needs a partner that can do that.

Couturier! Really wish he could get his offense going along with that defense. Could be a 2-way stud in the making.

To think the team was one Grossmann brain crap away from another shutout! I'll take it.

 

[flyershockey]

Something is wrong with Giroux only 18 minutes and coots played like 23 minutes

Defensive matchups were a big part of that. I'm glad his minutes were limited though. His line was not very good.

 

[Jtown]

Yeah, pretty much. Aside from that Couturier put forth a noticeably great effort tonight while Giroux...not so much.

which is why there is something wrong with him. Giroux looked physically overmatched all game. No time no space weak everywhere. He doesnt look as fast as he use to.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Lecavalier had another impressive night with faceoffs: won 10 of 13.

 

[Punn]

Who do guys think will generate more offence? Voracek or Downie?

 

[Garbage Goal]

Pittsburgh: 4-6-0 in the last 10
Philadelphia: 6-3-1 in the last 10

Funny how that works out considering the start of things.

Will someone with web skillz PLEASE make a "has Malkin scored tonight" webpage?? PLEASE?!?

You got a domain name? Need a host server too.

 

[Prongo]

Well it was fun. Off to drink the night away. Hell of a game!!!

Anyone who says Downie should have their head examined.

The answer is Voracek

 

[WACCAttack]

Couturier's a beauty.

 

[CanadianFlyersFan18]

Good : kimmo, cobourn
Bad: Crosby's dives
Ugly : malkin's face

LOL here I am having a beer with the old man and I spit it all over myself after reading the "Ugly"
Thank you for that.

on a side note, not a perfect effort but this team continues to shut it down in their own zone. The goals will come, didn't expect much offence on back to back nights.
Go Flyers Go

If you mean physically wrong, I doubt it. He was putting up points prior to this for a stretch since Berube took over and everything he did looked lackadaisical this game. Plus Giroux hasn't been good defensively this season as a whole.

 

[flyershockey]

Btw, that game was the exact reason why Couturier should be untouchable. He was the most important player on the ice for either team.

 

[Flyerss]

i loved when Couts and Streit shoved those sticks into malkin and the other guys faces tottaly worth it

 

[1865]

Yes, but Crosby doesn't dive any more. Remember?

 

[1865]

If you mean physically wrong, I doubt it. He was putting up points prior to this for a stretch since Berube took over and everything he did looked lackadaisical this game. Plus Giroux hasn't been good defensively this season as a whole.

If this team walked on water you'd say it was because they couldn't swim.

Personally, I think I forget how important Couts is until games against the Pens. The guy was dominant and was out in every key situation.

I wish he would pot a few, but I'm pumped with his performance this evening.

 

[Legion of Gloom]

Nice to beat the Pens, we are lucky they miss the net as often as we do.

B Schenn is no longer my whipping boy but Streit is now on my list, too many turn overs this game and horrible on the PP tonight

Good game by Emery, he stole this game for us

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

Couturier is an absolute monster defensively.

The points WILL come with him too.

Good: Emery, Schenn, Timonen, Coburn, Couturier, BERUBE

Bad: Nothing really

Ugly: Again nothing

 

[Garbage Goal]

If Couturier could develop offensively he'd easily be our best two-way presence along with Read. The latter of which is my favorite player on the team.

Voracek, he was ok tonight but recently he looks to be turning the corner.
