Orangecat Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Does G get off his schnide (if so, how many G/A's)? Impact player of the game?Can the Flyers pull out a W? What's you predicted final score?Bored at work....so fire away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 @Orangecat I see a 3-1 win for the Devils with singles going to Clarkson, Elias and Greene. I'm thinking McGinn gets the lone goal for the Flyers...hope I'm wrong, but the Devils have been pretty good of late and Brodeur should be in net. We've done better against him in recent years, but Marty is still *the* obstacle to overcome if they want some pts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 @jammer2@Orangecatwhere did clarkson get his "touch" around the net ? the guy had 30 goals last year and is playing really well this year his goal vs the pens on Sunday was true goal scorer's goal... where is that skill coming from ? wasn't his previous high like 12 goals or something ?deer antler mist ? EPO ? he's gotta be cheating somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 @mojo1917 Clarkson's goal production increased at the exact same time he got the gig in front of the net on the top pp. The Devil's last year promoted him to get some action in front of the net and run some interference to screen the goalie. It worked. Although, I have seen him score from the face off circle from wicked shots, the guy actually has some talent, it was just buried on the checking lines until last year. Makes him a valuable fantasy hockey player, top pp, top 6 forward and gets some nice PIM totals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakanekimiwa Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 not to derail the thread, but I was watching the pens/sens game last night and was struck by how much better the pens are than us. They have a balanced scoring attack that we just don't have. Their passing game is light years ahead of ours and it just caused the sens fits. I bring this up because I just don't see us having the ability to cycle against the Devils D. They've done a great job boxing us out and winning all the individual board battles. Also, the flyers still seem to have one D man 'rove'. I don't know how to explain it, but I've seen it cause many a breakdown in our zone resulting in GA. For instance, the Debbies have a great cycle game. Our D will have one man chase the forward as he cycles from the net area up to the blue line. This takes our D man waaaay out of position when the Debbie dumps it to another cycling player. then we have one D man back scrambling to cover both posts.

PhilsFanDrew Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I'm going to be optimistic and say 4-2 Flyers (4th a late EN goal by Talbot). I think Giroux gets out of his slump and has a 3 pt night (1G, 2A) and Bryz continues to play well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedZep Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Nobody predicted the Devils would score less than a minute into each of the first two periods? Flyers do it in the third!(edit: dammit) Edited February 16, 2013 by TedZep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedZep Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 When Giroux was hooked down and then elbowed by Brodeur, the referee pointed at center ice, I thought cool, a penalty shot. But oddly, nope, not even a penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Well, I got the score wrong, said 3-1....but would like to point out I did predict a 2 goal NJ win AND goals by Elias and Clarkson....which did happen....so, I dominate myself King **** of Turd Island for a day!
