Howie58 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) Greetings: It looks like Anderson versus Hart in goal. We are a fairly heavy underdog: https://freepicks.picksandparlays.net/more-free-picks/nhl-picks/carolina-hurricanes-at-philadelphia-flyers-112621-nhl-picks-and-predictions Note that this sportsbook has this game pegged as a Stanley Cup favorite versus a team that hasn't figured it out yet with possible blow-up. Black Friday is a special day at Wells Fargo. I hope AV and the Gang make the hometown crowd happy. Can we score more than two goals? LGF!

Yeah, I reposted current odds--Carolina is -145. You'd think the O and B are due for a scoring uptick. But I am not holding my breath.

FD19372 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Couturier will be looking for Ian Cole after that hard hit along the boards. Some Flyer will be. Whoa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 score a goal. then have thompson make a terrible turnover in our own zone and disconnect his controller so the Canes can tie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) Flyer power play...you know what means. The score will be tied at 3, if we're lucky. Edited November 26, 2021 by FD19372 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Kotkaniemi says "Thank God I'm on the 'Canes, and not on the Canadiens" and gives Carolina the lead, 4-3 with around 14 minutes left in regulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 It is painful. We get leads and blow them. Hart's great saves are neutralized by turnovers. We do better shorthanded. Mac shows some spirit. For what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not one Flyer came in and did a thing. That's your best player. No response. That says a lot about this team right there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 This game may jolt Fletcher on the trade front. Or it means AV may be on a leash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches rarely get fired when they don't have their full roster. Not that it would matter with this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 can we fire Thierrien at least then? Our PP is one of the worst aspects of the game. It actively has a detrimental effect on the team. Are we officially in last place on the pp%? We must be by the numbers, but definitely in practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every team just pressures Giroux now and there's not a lot of skill with the other guys to come up with something else. It's so obvious what the plan is and the other teams know it. Kind of sad that there is really no scoring threats on any of their power plays. Keith Yandle should not even be in the line up let alone on the power play. I really hope their not playing him because of some iron man streak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FD19372 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 This is just another COMCAST Flyers production that is disconnected from fans that give a da*n, and especially ones that are knowledgeable of what is happening with this team and what needs to be done. They need scoring badly. Something needs to be done NOW. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and even though he was their best player in franchise history...this Bobby Clarke mentality of playing your a*s off of on every shift is great, but guess what? Bobby Clarke the player had A LOT of talent and lead by example, too. You need both to work hard, and have some skill and talent. They don't have those players...nor do they have leaders.

albertaflyer Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I still can't believe when someone runs your best player no one does a thing. Just continue on with the play. Every other team would have jumped the guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
