BearOnIce Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Our savior is here!!!!!I believe that we are navigating very close to the bottom now. But, I do understand that Bryz cannot physically play every game and that he is getting a lot of work because the defense is non-existent. Above all else, I am quite amazed that Bryz has held it all together physically and especially mentally. Some people want him run out of town but I chose to say he has become a good teammate and playing decently all things considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaGreatGazoo Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Can someone give me one logical reason Leighton will be back on this roster-over Boosh? It's ain't cap reasons, their hits are almost equal this year. It ain't his play-he flat out sucked for the Flyers this year. This move has me totally baffled. Unless they are showcasing him for a trade. I ALMOST typed that with a straight face. Edited March 10, 2013 by DaGreatGazoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I was just finished with laundry and about to work out...and I read this thread. My G_d...what the hell is going on? I would rather we give Heeter/Schmeeter or Elmer Fudd the start than Leighton. Are we saying Boosh is washed up entirely? If so, fine, than bring in a kid and see what the hell he does...and if a group of senior players rallies around a kid. Ron...sorry for dumping...the message is the problem, not the messenger.Best,Howie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmdodgesrt4 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Hmmm. Dynamite time? Is the roster going to be changed after tomorrow's game ? Isn't there a break after tomorrow's game for a few days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doom88 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 No tanking, this franchise is better than that.It's probably because Boosh is a better teammate, and they want him in the AHL for that and mentoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Then is Boosh or Bryz is injured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polaris922 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Boucher actually played pretty well against the Pens the other night. I think he's washed up but he held his own under fire. Of course your defense stepped up for him and it WAS against us... the hated rival... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 OK, Boucher was sent to the Phantoms.I guess he didn't need to clear waivers, because?.......he only played in ... x ... number of games so he still was eligible on his previous waiver?interesting.So what has Leighton done that suggests he is better than Boucher?still confused, Holmgren is really grasping for straws here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Lavy doesn't trust Boosh.Lavy does trust Leighton, Lavy needs a goaltender coordinator, managing that position is his Achilles heel. Leighton is going to break Boosh's shutout minutes record, you watch LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 It could be they want to make sure they have beaten Bryzgalov to death by playing him against Buffalo and they are letting Boosh get a tune up game in the AHL..... before he comes back to take the reigns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyerrod Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 lol, or Leight's plays the first 5min and then wear out Bryz. Either way it is win win at this point. It should do wonders for Buffalo's confidence though..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know how much this team still values goaltending. Leighton must have damning evidence against Homer, and threatened to use it against him if he didn't get playing time. I just don't understand the mindset of the organ-eye-zation. I'd like to be a fly on the wall when they're discussing personnel decisions.

And analyst on NHL Network faults the defense and notes how short-term breakdowns are killing performance. The dude is right. Tonight. Should be a critical game.Best,Howie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensuck Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 NHL network also blamed coots on a lazy back check. He turns the puck over at our blue line, L Schenn makes a big hit on 1 guy, timmo has the other guy and coots is 3 steps behind the guy who scores. Lazy!!!

doom88 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Bryz heads up against any shooter kills performance. ANY. From any angle too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 There really is no reason to have Leighton in the NHL, let alone ahead of Boosh. I really really don't get it.The way we handle our goaltending is becoming a farce again, like the three ring circus we had a few years ago. Unbelievable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, he has been a good FlyerSeriously, I think this is just a sign of how desperate this franchise is and maybe they think they can catch lightning in a bottle. Perhaps they should just save some money and buy a white flag... "WE GIVE UP!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Laviolette and the rest of the Flyers are scrambling. Putting aside Bryz's own issues for now, he is tired. No human can start so many games played within such a short interval. He simply needs rest. And the Flyers - mind you BY THE OWN CHOICE - do not have a suitable back-up. Is Booch better than Leighton? Probably yes. But at this point, my guess is that Lavy simply doesn't care who that is. He needs to give Bryz a rest. And he knows that the difference between Booch and Leighton is probably very marginal. There may be some other unimportant reason for starting Leighton ahead of Bouche, but it's hardly relevant to us or Laviolette.Oh man........... I don't even know what to say at this point other than just shaking my head. This team is a road kill.
