jammer2 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 @OccamsRazor That is a bit scary actually, same eyes being far apart, same shaped eyes....TWINS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 Really? I watched some of the 1st....was in and out of the room.....so I should not watch the final 2 periods.....just check out the highlights? It's all my opinion, of course, but I was not interested. For me, there has only been one really exciting game this year - and that was against the Rags. I know you love hockey, jammer, so you could probably find something interesting in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 @brelic Of course I love hockey, but Flyer hockey has been brutal to sit through this year....past few years actually. This team has no identity....the last time we really looked interesting was when Carter and Richards were here....at least you could count on excitement then.

OccamsRazor Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 @OccamsRazor That is a bit scary actually, same eyes being far apart, same shaped eyes....TWINS! Neuvirth set a new Flyers franchise record as he became the first Flyers goaltender to record three shutouts within his first seven starts of a season.

murraycraven Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Keep Neuvy in net. He deserves more playing time..And to Pods points - that was a boring game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team has no identity....the last time we really looked interesting was when Carter and Richards were here....at least you could count on excitement then. Ha! Completely brutal, right? I ended up playing guitar last night instead, and wrote the major parts to a new song. Berube's first season wasn't too bad - wasn't that the year they set a record for come-from-behind wins? The team still had a lot of the Laviolette characteristics with the benefit of a coaching change. But, yeah, other than that, it's been a while. Even their SCF run, the regular season was boring. We don't have any exciting rookies in the lineup, and we don't really have an electrifying player to watch. So where's the interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podein25 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Nice game by Neuvrith.@Podein25 Soooo, did you go bag or mask?Neither. Went with Flyers jersey and Jets hockey fights cancer toque. Lots of Flyers fans in attendance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammer2 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Even their SCF run, the regular season was boring. It was ultra boring. That was a very poor team that just happened to gel at the right time. If Giroux misses that shoot out goal in game #82, that team misses the playoffs. It was a wonderful magical run, but I always look back to game #82 and how close they came to total failure. The 4 other things that stick out from that run was the dominance of Richards, the poise of Timmonen, the last time Gagne played like a champ and that outrageous 3 pronged goalie carousel that lead to the Bryzdisater.

jammer2 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 And Pronger stealing pucks Yeah, and probably the last time Chris played dominant bone crunching hockey. He was great in that run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Greetings: I didn't see the game but it appears our backup goalie is on a run while our starter is exhibiting some "frailties." This is not the first time a backup challenges a starter. We see where it goes One thing is certain--we will not win shoot 'em ups. This is a team that an only win close-checking affairs. And I don't think that will change throughout the season. Our GF/GA is 29th in the leagues...yikes. By the way, looking at earlier posts in this thread brings up a long-standing issue on this board--our 2008 and 2010 runs were "flukes." My gut says they reflect a reality of Homer's building method. Every once in a while the parts brought in by trade will work reasonably well. But overall, we will win by the draft and bringing cohorts through ranks together. Our inconsistent play over the last decade reflects our development strategy. Howie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ8812 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 2010 was just a team that underachieved for most of the season and got healthy at the right time. When you look at that roster, it had everything a SC winning team needed, aside from a goalie (sort of since Emery was injured). A fluke? No, but definitely a lucky team in terms of the match-ups we had in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
