Pucked in the head Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Who's pulling the strings on the bench hackjob or hextall , making up the lines? Do you think hexy will leave it up to hackjob to try to figure it out or does Ronnie dictate the lines tonight! Iyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJgoal Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I think it's pretty clear Hextall lets the coach set his lineup with minimal input from the GM, else Sanheim wouldn't have sat for 10 straight games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pucked in the head Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Lyon looks a little shaky I'm and I think voracek should have taken that shot instead of the extra pass back to G! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he should have! He had half the net and once he passed back to Giroux it was a difficult angle. Perfect example of their pass first mentality.

OccamsRazor Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 I got home just in time walked in with 5 minutes to play in the 3rd. Way to grind out a win. 3 points outside the #1 seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Agree with JJ and Clement, this team has glue. Lyon may be lucky (lots of post help tonight) but he also made some darn good saves and has a good glove. Our new addition may be the starter but Lyon seems plausible. He did a thesis on global thermonuclear war...how many goalies can say that? He just said he is "comfortable within chaos." Love it. It is fun to watch. Now we have to worry about Simmonds.

Nice they found a way to win. The Devils and Caps lost tonight too. Even better. 7-1-2 in their last 10. Jackets coming in Thursday. Should be a Mrazek vs Bob battle!

AlaskaFlyerFan Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Lindblom was very noticeable in the first period. I didn't notice him after the first but he had over 15 minutes of ice time. Koneckny left the game early after blocking a shot. I hope he is not down now, too. EDIT: Damn autocorrect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brelic Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Some thoughts from last night... 1. Pass, pass, pass. 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 2. Lindblom I thought he played really well in his NHL debut. 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. 3. Provorov Charged with a team-high 4 giveaways last night. The rest of the team had 7. I wonder if he's just mentally fatigued. It seems almost every game lately, he's guilty of some glaring brain cramps that turn into major giveaways - and not necessarily under pressure. As the broadcast crew said last night, Ghost has turned into a top defenseman with a strong all around game, and he's been the one bailing out Provorov lately. It's easy to forget that he just turned 21 and in his 2nd NHL season. He'll find his game again. In the meantime, it's nice that Ghost has developed to bring stability to that pairing. 4. Lyon He played well last night, coming up with some big saves. Still, he still looks shaky and was bailed out by a few posts. Hextall was smart to go out and get Mrazek - excited for his debut tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got more of the same coming with Frost/Rubstov, definitely pass first mentalities. Konecny and Patrick will shoot more the higher their confidence gets. 27 minutes ago, brelic said: 2.

I'm not worried, maybe they've relied on him too much over the last 2 seasons. He's shown he can play the game at a high level...it'll come back. Ghost has stepped up, but he's also 4 years older than Provy. 27 minutes ago, brelic said: 4. Lyon He played well last night, coming up with some big saves.

Maybe he is, maybe he isn't (an NHL backup) He could still have some big league jitters going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
