Send hung in there and grinding out a road win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 A championship team wins today's game IMO. Ottawa is not good, and the Flyers should have beaten them. Losing games to teams in the Eastern Conference is not a good thing either. I would not be surprised to see a player or two moved soon. Maybe Ottawa is a bad match-up? But I doubt it, they are two lines and then a bunch of garbage. **** them I hate losing to Giroux, more than I hated losing with Giroux. grrrr. Is this the beginning of the wheels bouncing into the median strip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratefulFlyers Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 13 minutes ago, mojo1917 said: Is this the beginning of the wheels bouncing into the median strip? a fair question but the Dallas game was only a few nights ago and yesterday despite the result they played really well. Maybe there's some doubt creeping in after today but I don't think so. It was clear the Flyers were just "off" today - they didn't play their game. Their transition game was nowhere and they didn't forecheck enough to make any headway to wear down the Sens (who played yesterday too). The only thing that worked today was the PP (imagine that). I expect they'll play Tampa tough and look much better than they looked today. Hopefully Tippett can go on Tues night... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) Tippett is a spark plug. His absence hurts. Torts bemoaned the fact that we didn't build on our leads. I'm not sure why you keep Brink out but keep ND in for five minutes and change. Remember, Torts told us to hold off on judging the team until the end of this month. Every team has a bad stretch or two during a season. This weekemd's duo was bad play, but the lack of distributed scoring shows as well. Going with the 11-7 gig probably makes that worse. You need scoring from the MacEwen's of the world to consistently win. I'm glad Atkinson is bouncing back. But it seems like half the forwards are almost invisible on offense.
