OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Nice play by Ghost to get that puck off towards the net. Good to have him back in the lineup. Brayden with his 10th of the year! Good for 3rd in goals now. It's looking like a career year for him, he's picked a good time to have it.
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 goddamn Mason really.....what a shitty goal to give up!
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 After watching the 1st goal again that might be Coots. Mason has to make that stop in a key game like this...been very disappointed with his up and down play this year.
RJ8812 Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 they've stopped playing since the 10 minute mark of the 1st period
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Just now, RJ8812 said: they've stopped playing since the 10 minute mark of the 1st period Yeah Medvedev has to have his head on a swivel and stop getting caught flat footed. They are going to have to be on their A game because Mason isn't playing well and it is showing.
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 The 2nd one was a tough save for Mase but it would have been nice to see him get it with his glove. Medvedev will be scratched tomorrow bank it.
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Flyers PP 0 for 11 now over last 4 games
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Make that 0 for 12 the last 4 games...someone besides Ghost needs to step up and make a play on the PP.
sarsippius Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Hate when I just tune in and it's 2-1 Rags. Hate the Rags more than anything in that sentence
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Wow what a steal by Ghost so close to being a goal!!!

sarsippius Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Real nice poke by Ghost to start that scoring chance. Good hockey instinct
RJ8812 Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 would be nice if Giroux could do something against the Rangers

Hextall needs to do something to inject some skill to this lineup...like sitting RJ and calling up Straka or Martel. They need scoring and that is one thing the two kids are doing in the AHL. RJ has been completely invisible please sit that bum.
intheslot Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Have to go out and win the 3rd they started to bang near the end of period.. Better carry play ..
flyercanuck Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Ghost makes some really good offensive plays...but his D needs improvement (he looked like a forward on the 2nd goal). Couturiers offence is really starting to come around. He's a lot more confident in what he does when he has the puck. The Rangers aren't much of a force this year, and the teams look fairly even. Philly may or may not make the playoffs, and I'm fine either way. But Hakstol sure has them playing a good way...just a matter of Hextall continuing to bring in the pieces to make a contender.

That wasn't on Ghost...then none of the forward were anywhere near back checking...pulling a Scotty Hartnell............
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Yikes Jake's contract doesn't look so bad now...... Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 10m10 minutes ago Kopitar year by year: $14 mil, $13 mil, $12 mil, $11mil, $8mil, $8mil,$7mil,$7 mil. No move clause immediately and first 4 yrs. YIKES!!!!
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 C'mon guys you need to score here break the spell!!!!!!!
OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Wow how come they don't call the check in the back to Simmer on that the ref looking right at him!!??? Nice Simmer scored as i typed that!
sarsippius Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Nizice! Cleaning up the garbage in the crease

OccamsRazor Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Damn OT. So Rangers get one point...let's get the other.
