OccamsRazor Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 I missed all but the last 5 minutes of the game but saw the amazing finish... WTF happened here?? Man that was close. I hope TK is ok can't afford to lose another key forward... Tough deflection goal for Lyon.... Yikes close one... Kid has a nice glove still needs to work on some stuff... This is why they wear mask.... Nice pass by G even better finish by the rookie... Really Mandog?? Jake??? SMFH!!! SHOOT THE GODDAMN PUCK!!! Not a great effort on this goal. Lyon should of stayed up... What a play by the Flyers Norris candidate!!! (yes i know wow that was Mcdud!) Then Jake finally shoots! He even shot again!!! GAME SET MATCH!!!!

The Flyers gave up several grade A chances by opting to pass instead of taking the obvious shot. None was more obvious that the Giroux / Voracek 2 on 0. Of course Voracek passed! Best quote of the night goes to Voracek, interviewed by Bundy after the OT winning goal: "I wanted to pass but I was at the end of a shift, so I said screw it, I'll take a shot and see what happens." And he says all this with a straight face! Lol I wonder if Jake and G have some side bet to see who can lead the team and possibly the league in assists, LOL. I also heard his interview with Bundy and found myself getting slightly pissed after hearing him say it. Jake Passacek!!!! You know I am a true Flyers fan when I find something to bitch about after an exciting OT win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his ceiling could be a backup...he still has some things to work on like making himself bigger in net...sure he is only 6-1 and by today's standard that is small...however man he has an above average glove hand which is good to see. His positioning still needs work but we have to remember he doesn't have a goalie coach in the AHL. That needs to change when they get Hart and Sandstrom there if they want these kids to grow and develop down there. Kids need a coach for each position.

Just goes to show you can't judge a goalie by his first game or two...or four. He could settle in and look good. Then everyone will have the book on him and fill the net. You never know.

brelic Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I forgot to add a few things... The Flyers have not given the other team a PP in three full games. That's the first time in franchise history and only second time in NHL history that's happened. That's certainly one way to fix the PK. Also, Giroux keeps climbing up the Flyers all-time leaders list, recently passing LeClair. 1. Bobby Clarke* 1210 2. Bill Barber* 883 3. Brian Propp 849 4. Rick MacLeish 697 5. Eric Lindros* 659 6. Tim Kerr 6507. Claude Giroux 645 8. John LeClair 643 9. Mark Recchi* 627 10. Rod Brind'Amour 601 He is 15 points away from 5th all-time. He's a special player without question. I read somewhere yesterday that Giroux has the 4th most points in the entire NHL over the past 9 years, behind Crosby, Ovechkin, and Kane. He deserves a Cup, eh?

Over 15:11 TOI - including 1:25 on the PP - he was strong along the boards and had a few great opportunities around the net. He did not look out of place at all. I watched the 2nd period, Lindblom looked like an NHL player to me. He looks huge, the puck seems to find him or vice versa, he looks strong as hell along the boards. He also looks to have pretty good hands, and a scoring mentality. I didn't see a whole lot of "wow, I'm in the NHL" from him. I saw a whole lot of "Imma makes some plays tonight". -which I found to be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt the time in LHV has served him well. Let's hope he takes the time Simmonds is out to show he belongs. This is becoming a deep squad.

OccamsRazor Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Word on the screets is TK has a bone bruise...so if he is out who would you call up LV plays tonight. NAK? Vex? Vorobyev? It would be NAK for me 37 points in 54 games. Tied for 1st on the team +/- at +20 with Knight. 4th in goals at 14. All 14 goals came 5 on 5. Impressive.

I hope TK doesn't miss any time. He finished the game, and still showed speed (tracking down that Hab player on a breakaway with MacDonald). I'd call up NAK too, stick him on the top line to minimize disruption. Dude seems to be very responsible defensively. TK seems like a fighter, though. The kind of guy that would play through this stuff at this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to disrupt the Phantoms as little as possible they have the playoffs too to concentrate on. Sanheim has been on fire since being sent back. He has 13 points in 12 games and +11....just the reason why i wanted him sent back so he could work on his game and regain his confidence with and without the puck. Looks like it is working. I think once they get close to the end of the season he could be recalled to add some firepower to the lineup and sit Manning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
