Cheesesteak Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Good luck to the "kid" Led's hope he plays well and shows that he could be a quality backup, not sure how much Emory has left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hf101 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 @Howie58 I'm wondering why Emery didn't start both games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 @Howie58 I'm wondering why Emery didn't start both games?HF: Emery did not look great last night despite winning. I am not sure if this was rest of belief that it was time to try someone else. Emery gave up 4 on relatively few shots. I have to wonder if Emery will be kept post next year--is management looking for an in-house backup? Best, Howie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah you are right Emery doesn't have a contract for next season and neither does Zepp, so yeah I guess this could be a look at what he can do in the NHL.

Howie58 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Well, this was a storybook ending. The announcers on the Center Ice feed from TSN3 liked the save Zepp made at the end of the second. It's good to see the guys get going in the 3rd...Vinny actually earned his pay. Voracek is a monster. Howie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagerMeister Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 never heard of the guy, good for him that he won in his first NHL debut. Did he play well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voracek is a monster. Howie Happy Holidays Howie, I thought Zepp looked really good and made som big saves. I stil am trying to figure out what Schultz and Coburn were trying to go on that Buff goal. That serioulsy looked like a goal in a high school game and how the defense let him walk right into the paint was just the epitome of bad defefnse. And as you say - Voracek is indeed a monster. VLC looked good and I am more than willing to give him credit when it is due. He seems to be driving the net away from the puck more and I hope it continues.

off_the_post Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 @murraycraven - yeah the d on that goal was scary bad. Schultz seemed to have gotten tied up with the ref a bit and never recovered. Coburn however, after seeing Buff skate around Schultz, turned away and tried to cover the man off the far post instead of rotating over and at trying to stop Buff from just waltzing out from the corner. I wonder what Zepp was thinking after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what Zepp was thinking after that.Yeah WTF Coburn was thinking is beyond me dude just flat turns his back to him and leaves the top of the crease wide open so he could walk right in uncontested easily the worst play I seen from him in a year or more...and that is saying alot because there are many to chose from. Just plain brain dead he is!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buff goes along the goal line extended and beats Schulz and then Coburn literally turns his back to "cover" all while Buff walks in alone... mind boggling honestly!

jammer2 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 What a nice story, a career minor leaguer, has not even played in North America since 05, is trusted enough to come up with a big win on the road against a pretty hot Jets team. Kudos to the Flyers for trusting this guy, he responded and made them look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to the Flyers for trusting this guy, he responded and made them look good. It's a great story that actually flooded the local sports radio yesterday. Both the Fan and TSN called him and talked him up. Good for Zepp, a dream come true even if he never plays another game. Not sure its so much the Flyers trusting him or having an injury to your starter, your backup looking shaky as heck the night before and having nowhere else to turn.. Good on Zepp either way.

off_the_post Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 From the last two games played I felt more comfortable with Zepp than Emery. I would actually like to see Zepp tonight but think Emery is the safe call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
