Unbelievable.  The Flyers have completely dominated this game.  They are faster to the loose pucks and have spent the majority of the game in the offensive zone.  The only thing they aren't doing is scoring goals.  And the Sens come down and spend 10 seconds in their offensive zone and score.

Weal scores in SO, nets number 1 star.  Maybe the Vinnie Dump is looking better over time.  The kid moves and has some offensive talent.  We should thank Andy and the Goalpost for their assistance in the Flyers win.  Three straight games with a good compete level and hard work.  Agreed with Occam and the Sens announcers on the Center Ice feed--LA and the O and B will not make playoffs due to dropoff of their top scorers and talent....

Can this team stop winning please?

 

Anyone catch Ghost's post-game interview?  Said he's been having fun doing his thing out there and his teammates have been supportive.  Wonder if that's a veiled shot at the coaching staff?

I, for one, am just exhausted by all the winning. Really sick and tired of all the winning. 

 

I was warned by the orange man with the small hands that this would happen, but I'm really unprepared for it. 

 

I'm off to bed.

No he just hasn't had the confidence with the puck. In same interview he said that. Maybe you missed he is skating like he isn't thinking so much now. Instincts. Muscle memory it is what you need to get by. Thinking is for practice.

 

He is doing less of it. Giroux at times looks like he is doing less of it. Then come shootout time he OVER thinks it.

 

Jake i'm not sure what the f**k is going on with him and his fighting the puck. He just fumbles the damn thing so much like someone chopped off his thumbs. Mind boggling. Maybe he is still thinking to much.

 

It reminds me of a WR who is thinking about what he is going to do with the football after he catches it before he catches it and drops the damn thing. My best analogy off the top of my head. Regardless Jake has done it ALL year.

Good thing Cousins got injured or Weal would still be in Lehigh Valley...

As of right now would it be safe to say the kid has earned a "protected spot" among the team for the expansion???

Flyers win it in the SO.  Pretty entertaining game.

 

Flyers have won 7 games in the SO this year and are 2nd in the NHL in SO wins.

 

Never thought I'd hear anybody say that the FLYERS are 2nd in the league in SO wins.  Now if we can just get the rest of our game back........

And finally the Flyers capitalize on an Anderson mistake.  Weal ties it up.

 

That was plain embarrassing. Anderson has performed reasonably, but he's just had a few screw ups that really makes me wonder what's going on. This one was the most egregious, but the past five or so games he has played he seems to be in a bit of a funk.
