Howie58 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Greetings: The Flyers are favorites (-168) with a predicted 6-3 score: https://www.cappertek.com/article.asp?a=blue-jackets-vs-flyers-betting-odds-free-picks-and-predictions-4-11-2023-307345 Yes, you read correctly. We are playing a team that has given up 5 goals per game over the last 10. https://sportsbookwire.usatoday.com/article/philadelphia-flyers-vs-columbus-blue-jackets-odds-tips-and-betting-trends-2/ Both their goalies are well below .900 save percentage, and other than the power play, we are better (that is a stretch) statistically: https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/cbj-vs-phi/2023/04/11/2022021287 I guess the big questions might be with roster. Who gets scratched? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I may watch to check the kid out. Depends on what time i get home from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This to me is them turning the page on DeAngelo. Otherwise just play him and leave the kid in LV. I am totally happy if DeAngelo has played his last game for the Flyers.

OccamsRazor Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I hope the kid can provide a lost element to the blueline that has been missing for a while now. Physicality. Flyers blueline is to easy to play against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 2 more games before I can say I haven't cheered for a single Flyers goal all season. #ThanksChuck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Ginning is a plus 24 or something like that. That is fantastic for a rookie defenseman. Maybe Ginning can actually play defense and prevent some goals. Down the road you can team Soyheim with Ginning so that Soyheim can try and create more offense since he has a partner who is solid defensively. Maybe Sanheim will even become more confident having a partner who can protect him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ever have a friend who was a total puss y with the women and you go out as a group and team him up with a real DickSlinger and suddenly he has a few drinks and hes talking to all the women and his sack grew exponentially .That’s what I envision Ginning or Attard doing for Sanheim on the ice , he needs motivation and confidence.

Yeah great analogy but I don't know about him his seems like his nuts have been clipped. Do they grow back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 This is a boring game. I thought Hart was sleeping in the first. Awful. Tippett is a good add. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 Well, I guess the bookies were right...but it took OT to get there. The game was marginally watchable, but I'm glad Tippett strutted his stuff. We witnessed the end of the road for JVR. TDA is probably out. The joys of transition and mess-clean-up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilldoc Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 As I mentioned in another thread… this win just cemented the Flyers in selecting 7th in the upcoming draft unless of course they win the lottery…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortorella went so far as to play 13F/5D the other night rather than play DeAngelo. Hardly a surprise given his history. I am surprised it took so long, whatever “it” was that got him scratched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
