A must win game. Score does not matter. We need more wins. Colorado won already 6 games in a row and we are now 1 point behind this team. And Nashville is running too after us. I think we should rotate in tryouts more forwards prospects capable to improve our production like Walker, Shaw, Rossi. Maybe one of them finally will start producing for the big club? Reaves and Hartman should sit. Too much expectation but practically no scoring at all. Plus a lot of penalties. Do we want them (penalties) when team is now in a tough position?

Interesting, as soon as I placed this message I found out from Michael Russo twit that Hartman is healthy scratch because of his recent multiple penalties. Hartman said that message received. Nice that he understands this issue. I really want to see Walker in our team. He reminds me Kaprizov's play. It seems he is a very talented prospect.

Need a win to avoid season high 4 straight losses. We've been tettering on that edge a few times now. We need points and lot's of them.
If Gustav starts I say the Wild can win 4-2.

[Jimtown guy]

I finally get to watch a game tonight. Had to cancel my practice because it’s blizzarding here. 
 

Wild play pissed off desperate hockey tonight and the Flyers are in the way. Wild light it up and take this one 6-3 

[wildstars95]

 the wild tea bags the flyers 4-2 tonight  

[ClusterChuck]

If we keep running out the same lines, I'm not very confident of anything changing much right now.  

[ClusterChuck]

Fleury starts...

[Jimtown guy]

Getting worked and the Flyers score
