aziz Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 The guy has been a professional goaltender in the most-talented league in the world for a decade, and has done exceptionally well.i'm not saying he hasn't. just saying i'm always suprised when i see someone stick in the NHL while being that weak on their skates. bryzgalov isn't the only one. i'm pretty sure js giguere wears bob skates.

mojo1917 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Dude played well vs the Panthers, and well enough against the Rangers. I'm trying to watch him with fresh eyes, so far the two games I've seen he's been pretty good. When he's going we'll the puck finds him and he's efficient with his movement, he has looked to me like he's playing similarly to last March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegionOfDoom Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Out of the Woods...He's playing like he did in the dessert...Thirsty for another win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yeah, Bryz looked razor sharp tonight. He stopped quite a few difficult shots with great anticipation and lateral movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackhole Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Give him an extension!!!Nice!....I like wiseguys Bryz looked very, well...un-bryz-like. Quick laterally, sound positioning, anticipating. Was good to see, and I hope whomever sn-atched his jersey and is playing in net keeps up the charade because that was just what the doctor ordered.

ZeZel25 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) I buy him out. Bad contract that only gets worse when the cap goes down Edited January 27, 2013 by twpguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachX Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 The Flyers are now 2-3. The first three games looked to me like alot of guys were rusty and their timing and conditioning was off. The last two games they looked sharp, energized and worked like a team. Bryz also looked (IMO) really good in these last two games.Now I don't know how the rest of the season will play out. I fear that the injuries will be a big detractor and cause the team to fall short. And I don't know how Bryz will look the rest of the way. But I think 5 games in to a strike shortened season is not nearly enough of a sampling to determine hsi future on. Flyers fans are so emotionally invested in this team that everygame holds some monumental impact. Management has a tool at their disposal in this buy out. I don't think they will overlook this. Hell for all we know, Bryz could win the Vezina and still get bought out for business reasons. So as interesting a discussion as this is, I would say let's just relax and see what happens next. They aren't going to change anything until the season is over, so get used to what is here now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakanekimiwa Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Give him an extension!!!trade him now! his value will never be higher!!seriously, though, bryz has now put together a few good games here. I thought he played very well in NY and even better last night. I'm seeing the signs that I saw last spring before he went on a heater. I think he's going on another heater here and I hope it's not ended by another injury(there are no jinxes). Is he in net again today? On one hand, I'd like to see him just stay in net right now... he's in the zone. On the other, this is a lot of games in a very short period of time ... and dare I say... maybe Leighton should start today? yikes. i said it.

Digityman Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Game #5 - Flyers vs Panthers Stellar game by Bryz. Made the saves he needed to and then some.The goal against was a breakaway from the blueline. Not his fault.He looked as though he was one of the best goalies in the league.Season Total:Great Games: 1Good Games: 1Average Games: 3Below Average Games: 0View Game #4 videoView Game #6 video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarsippius Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I agree with Digity, Bryz didn't suck yesterday. But I will be on the side of buy his arse out, until provided with overwhelming evidence to the contrary and a full investigation by one of those non partisan blue ribbon panels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo1917 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 @sarsippiusthe deal is for so long and for so much, even if Bryz is really good this year i would think his contract should be one to buy out. it's a bad deal just about every way you look at it, and I'm not really on the Bryz hate train either, he would have to turn into 25 year old Martin Broduer for it to be worth while and at 31 or whatever that is a very remote possibility.

Digityman Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Game #6 - Flyers vs Rangers - 1/29/2013 Goal #1 - Bryz should have had it. Just poor reaction and positioningGoal #2 - Nothing he could do about it. He made some key saves and then looked shaky on others but overall it was a good game by Bryz.Season Total:Great Games: 1Good Games: 2Average Games: 3Below Average Games: 0View Game #5 VideoView Game #7 Video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearOnIce Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 · Hidden by Digityman, January 31, 2013 - duplicat Hidden by Digityman, January 31, 2013 - duplicat I agree, one thing I notice so far anyway is, that he is standing up a bit more, his awareness is better and he seems more fluid in his laeral movement. Lets give him the season and see what he does, if he is just decent,then we can get a decent goalie for much less in the off season.Get him some defensemen that can play and he will look like Lundquist.. What a mess this backside is. Bryz is a keeper. Link to comment

Digityman Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Game #7 - Flyers vs Capitals - 2/1/13 Goal #1 - Flyers didn't get the puck deep leading to a breakaway for Backstrom. As we've seen most of the season, any 1 on 1 seems to result in a goal.Goal #2 - He went into the butterfly a little to early leaving the top corner open. That was a hell of a shot though. Goal #3 - L Schenn give away leads to a breakaway. (See goal #1)I'd say this was a average to good game for Bryz. Making a few key saves on OV puts it firmly into the good category.

Digityman Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Game #8 - Hurricanes vs Flyers - 2/2/2012 Goal #1 - Not his fault. Would have been a huge save if he got it.Goal #2 - Another turnover result in a 1 on 1 breakaway. I can't remember Bryz making a save this year when 1 on 1. Goal #3 - Talbot stopped skating = blown coverage. Perfect pass on the tap across the goal crease. Nothing Bryz could do.Lots of shots thrown at him. 42 to be exact. 3 goals against is a .929 SV%.

Digityman Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Not for nothing, but I've seen at least two articles describing it as a great game by Bryz.I'm okay with changing it to great if that's what's agreed upon. I personally have seen better games from goalies (standing on their head) so that's why I kept it as good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 @Digitymanthat cane's game was a case where Bryz stole the win. out shot by +10 shots , many good point blank shots turned away, he was better than solid on saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canoli Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) wow really? you think so Mojo? I don't know, for me he played well but he certainly didn't "steal the win" by any means. I think even Rad will agree that it was our offense, our PP that got the win that night. When you go 3 for 3 on the PP you're going to win games. Bryzgalov was good but he didn't have to be "great" at all. Our D actually blocked more shots that night than in all the games combined before that (maybe a slight exaggeration but I think the numbers are actually close).[edit: let's hope he's "great" tonight because those damn Bolts are on fire offensively. He'll have to be great and our Team D will need to be outstanding tonight if we hope to keep TB off the board...they've only scored less than 3 goals one game...yipes! We got our work cut out for us tonight...] Edited February 5, 2013 by canoli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
