brelic Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I'm calling for a 2-0 victory. Giroux gets the GWG from Vinny and Streit on the PP. Read pots an empty netter. Mase with the shutout. Of course, I have Vinny and Mase in my FHL, so I'm biased I dropped Streit last week. Still on the fence with Voracek (but I'm keeping him on the bench tonight in favour of Jiri Hudler). I just looked at the Rangers lineup.... wow, putrid. No wonder they can't score either. 20 Chris Kreider - 21 Derek Stepan - 19 Brad Richards 67 Benoit Pouliot - 16 Derick Brassard - 10 J.T. Miller 14 Taylor Pyatt - 22 Brian Boyle - 12 Jesper Fast 40 Brandon Mashinter - 28 Dominic Moore - 15 Derek Dorsett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Remember they have a rookie goalie Talbot starting his 1st game tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertmega Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I had a dream that Voracek was traded to Winterpeg. Not that it has to do with much, but I'd be bummed if that happened. I also predict a win tonight for the Flyers. I hope they do not make the rookie Talbot look like Patrick Roy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Remember they have a rookie goalie Talbot starting his 1st game tonight.so we get 40 shots on him and he shuts us out like we usually do haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraycraven Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Remember they have a rookie goalie Talbot starting his 1st game tonight. which means he will be a stone wall against this offense. We have a habit of making any goalie look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intheslot Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I see a break out game where they score early and often, and end up winning 6 to 1 . picked the wrong week to quit smoking!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamflyers Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Lucky for me, I have a pass to get into the Cadillac Grille tonight. I will be drinking a few whiskey's before the game, because that is the only way I can enjoy an entire Flyers game so far this year...stinkin drunk! Lets go Flyers....please stop this progression towards a drinking problem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedeFly Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Flyers historically have an uncanny ability to make a rookie goalie look like a Vezina winner...2-0 Rags on a PP goal and an empty netter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to be positive and maybe the mini-camp will help but until I see a complete game (and effort)... well, you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkscrewy Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I think we will win this one simply because it will frustrate us fans to know we won against an injury-plagued team and can't really feel all that good about it. Still, a win will be a win. If we win, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, a win will be a win. If we win, that is. If anything this would be a moral victory... the Rangers lineup is pretty terrible. To get excited about this win would be fool's gold.

AlaskaFlyerFan Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 After a week off, teams usually look a little rusty. I can't imagine they could look any slower than they have in the first 8 games. Hopefully, they can break that trend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game could be ugly! I just grabbed a bottle of Tequila while running errands on lunch.

Samifan Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Hoping the Flyers don't make Cam Talbot look like a vezina winning goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 It was ugly but it got the job done. Thankfully Mason did his thing. Two clinkers off the posts... OK, there was some energy. But the PP looked anemic. A win is a win. And this doubled their W total...yikes. Voracek is OK. Simmonds is just sucking. I don't get it but the third line may be a reflection of current contribution. That is sad. So...will there be carryover? Best,Howie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedeFly Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 @Howie58It was two brutal teams playing each other...it could have went either way, but we happened to win. Still, we were outshot, lost face offs, were out-hit, and had more giveaways...... ...mini Berube camp still needs some time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Can anyone on the Flyers; A make a pass to a moving target . B receive a pass that if it is not perfectly on the tape . C settle a puck ? Damn they looked bad, like hey, my name is Wayne nice to meet you,oh you're getting ready to play hockey, need a winger? Maybe they'll play faster when the puck works for them , they are all fighting it something fierce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doom88 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Read, Couturier, B Schenn, and Voracek played well. The problem is Giroux. Scratch him for a game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coords Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) I thought Vinny played a solid game too considering it was his first back..in fact he was creating more space than any other player out there. It was a disappointing win but I like how Read Couturier and Simmonds are shaping out as the second line (first line the way they played tonight) Raffle Mc'Taffle is a nice player but doesn't belong on the top line. Voracek is playing well but I swear he used to be faster...he had a race for an icing he usually would have won out right. I don't know what to do with Giroux except stop sabotaging your first line with second line talent....(which they did to Richards his entire career here, save when it was Knuble and Gags) Edited October 25, 2013 by coords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
