RJ8812 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hak is just a bad coach. Looks dumbfounded out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 We have lost 11 of the last 13 against this team. Lundquist is ageless against us. We brought our C- game. Maybe D-. I wonder if Elliott has hit the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Fire the Coach, all the players suck, the captain is a fag, we can't wait to trade Jake ! Get a goddamned grip. really. The Rangers have been getting blistered the last couple of games and were challenged by their goalie of all people to pull their heads out of their asses, and they did.... bad luck for the Flyers they got the Rangers on the night they have been the most focused they've been in the last month. The Flyers didn't play well, and may be a bad matchup with the Rangers, losing 7 of the last 8. Lundquist wishes he could play the Flyers every other day, he owns them. I hate the Rangers, a lot. I hate the goal song, I hate their douchey captain, I hate Rick Nash, I hate... well, their sweaters are pretty sweet, but I hate them. Right now though they have the Flyers number. Let's see how the Flyers play next game, I'm pretty sure they'll be a lot more focused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I dont think the Flyers are a legit playoff team , so i would rather lose and get another lottery pick, rather than go out in round 1. Lets suffer now and build the team quicker. Hopefully our next lottery pick will be better than Patrick. If we can make a good pick and also get a big return for Simmonds, the rebuild can be expedited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 You can not turn the puck over like this and expect to win. Elliott is gassed because he CAN NOT EVEN (slow as hell) move out there. Back of the net. Not sure WTF Manning is doing here??? Really Jake??? Back of the net. Elliott doing his Bryzgalov impressination. And this is all the emotion Hak can muster??? Team is a reflection of the coach. ZERO EMOTION!!! How ever it was nice to see Neuvy quick and moving well. If i was Hak i would ride him till he breaks.....again. Elliott is spent.

OccamsRazor Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Am i the only one here who thinks Hak should have started Neuvy to start the 2nd already down 4-1? It possible it could of got a spark out the club? It sure couldn't have hurt. No matter what they need to start Neuvy vs. Leafs tomorrow night. Elliott is a streaky guy and he looks like he is about to start his bad streak if he let's him. Don't let him. Rest him up for either one of the back to back games this weekend. Devils saturday or Caps sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vis Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Ugly game against a divisional rival. Can't have too many of those if they expect to make the POs. Lots of mistakes and a goalie incapable of covering them up. Hope this isn't the start of another trend with a pretty tough schedule to close out the month. Let's see how they respond vs. TO and then against the Devils who finally won last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. It was a clunker. Giving up 3-4 breakaways and shorthanded goals is no recipe for success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the overall effort was lacking as well, those are the plays that really cost them. Tighten it up and prep for the Leafs who haven't been playing all that well. Though, might be another situation where the opposition decides to ratchet things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 This poor performance against the Rags over the last few years is interesting. I wonder if the wonks who study such things can tell us about that. Nash came to life against us. Lundquist is sub-2.0 against us over 8 or 9 games. I hope Elliott is not at some break point. Neuvy as starter beyond a few games is scary. Bring on the Leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Every team gives up a "clinker" once in a while and the Flyers have had a decent run going as of late. To me this was the perfect storm against a team who desperately needed a win. The Flyers started out fine but that was about it... the game completely got away from them. I thought Patrick actually looked really good last night so I take that a a positive. It was a brutal game to watch for sure and I still think Hak is out-coached nearly every game the Flyers play. They are a bubble team at best right now so jumping off bridges with each loss is silly. Just the same as when they win... they are an average team that can beat a really good team or get smoked by the rangers. That is the current state of the Flyers... same as how many years now?

Murray, there is lots of truth to this. But I am more optimistic than prior years. The youth may actually pan out. Hakstol and Hextall are i the third year of a five year experiment .If we are continuing .500 or thereabouts team in a year or two...the experiment is a failure. Hakstol is a strangely detached guy as we look in. I would love to see more emotion and an occasional balling out during a time out. I was surprised we didn't see Neuvy immediately in the third, if only to stir the pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Hakstol - to me this was always a risky hire. No NHL experience and a risky signing which, like the prospects, may pan out. For one I think he is a terrible in game Coach and his lineup choices are questionable. I am not sold on Hak leading this team but I think the Flyers need to see where he is at when he actually has a good lineup of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
