Trade for Richards and Carter!

Rinaldo should have been in the lineup the entire series... from what I've read on these boards, most posters think he is usless.. I disagree. JvR was put in his place and turned out to be the one that was useless and took up a roster spot.

By the time the team figures out what to do with Bryzgalov or the goaltending situations in general, these "rookies" will be with other teams. The Flyers will not be able to keep them all.

Unreal... kind of knew it was coming though.

So very true... faceoffs, passing, hitting and even a fight in this series got the rest of the Kings all fired up... I know Brown is the captain, but Richards makes for a pretty dam good one himself. he probably likes just being "just another player" on the team.

I don't think he will be that pissed...why get angry at something you had no control over. All players understand its a business and has happened to the best of em. He's going to be a real good player moving forward and make that team better. Scored the OT goal against Canada the other night in the World's!

Score could easily be 5-2 at this point, maybe more... he is playing well, but the soft forwards continue to get outworked and bounced around by the Devils.

Offense was hard to watch as well... seems like everyone is one step behind the Devils. Everytime the Flyers entered the offensive zone with the puck, there are two Devils on that guy and he can't do anything.... happened throughout the game 2 and 3.

Both... Lavy continues to use Simmonds with Giroux and Hartnell on the PP, there's no chemistry at all there.. outworked as well.. this could be a long night.

No worries, guys... it happens all the time and quite justified to the way people think about the city...it does not have a good track record. And for the record, when I commute in and out to work in Newark, its lierally in and out as fast as I can... not stopping to enjoy the "sights" in and around the city! lol

I've worked in Newark for 17+ years... the area around the arena has always been "cleaned up"... the arena makes it that much better. The folks living in the Ironbound section of newark should be proud of themselves for keeping these neighborhoods clean, safe, and continue to open businesses and declicious restaurants found nowhere else in the city. However... true, if you don't know where you are going, don't stray too far away from the general area...

Parise's line isn't scoring? Parise scored in game 1 and In game 2, due to Kovalchuck being out, Deboer had to mix up his lines... Zajac/Clarkson/Elias and Parise all have scored in this series so far. Agreed that any goals the wellwood line puts up is a bonus, but the truth is, they haven't done that yet and the Devils' go to guys continue to produce on offense.

Don't sit Jagr, but please Lavy... take Simmonds off of the 1st PP unit with Harts and G. There is absolutely no chemistry there.. I personally think Read would be a nice fit on that line. Truth be known, I would not mind seeing Rinaldo back in the lineup. But that may mean the 4th line in a whole might see less ice time. Wellwood has some really nice speed, but he really does not fill the net too often, does he?

What is the idea of putting Simmonds with Giroux and Hartnell on the power play? That unit pretty much generated one shot in all of the PP opportunities combined. It didn't work in the 1st, obvioulsy didn't work in the 2nd... and yet still in the 3rd, Lavy used that same combination. IT DID NOT WORK! Not saying that was the reason for the loss, but at least try a different combination... especially on the power play.

Bring on the dam Rags! They don't look so great now and the playoffs are a whole different animal!
