Howie58 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Greetings: The 6-7 Flyers visit the 7-6 Sharks. The bookies are drawing a blank on this one but statistics give SJ the edge: https://www.oddsshark.com/nhl/philadelphia-san-jose-odds-november-3-2018-1020805 The home opening loss, 8-2, might be fresh on the O and B's minds. That, coupled with two wins in a row, says we may have a good game to stay awake for. Historically, San Jose seems to have our number: https://www.flyershistory.com/cgi-bin/opponent.cgi?San_Jose_Sharks So let's hope for the best.

OccamsRazor Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I hope this group is in a better place mentally for this team. Back to back win should help with the we can beat this team mindset. They need to just continue to grind it out. They do that they can win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 It would be huge if the Flyers can get two guys going: Ghost: 1 goal 4 assist in 13 games and -8!!! Disappointing is a understatement. Two assist in the last 9 games!!!! TK: 2 goals 3 assist in 13 games is very disappointing. 1 point in the last 6 games!!! I think it is paramount to get these two key contributors finding the twine again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes for real. And with these two skill sets we've seen no way would i imagine would they struggle for long they are human and it happens. But once they snap out their funk that could easily add a goal per game to their average...which would go along ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 I am pleasantly surprised that Folin seems to be stabilizing. Gudas is playing very well. AMac is an expensive healthy scratch. What can you say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 I just saw this on our historical record against San Jose, while San Jose seems to play well on Saturday: he San Jose Sharks are: 4-1 in their last 5 games following a loss of three or more goals. 10-3 in their last 13 Saturday games. 9-4 in their last 13 home games against a team with a winning road record. The Philadelphia Flyers are: 7-20-3 in their last 30 games against the Sharks. 2-9-1 in their last 12 games in San Jose. 0-8 in their last 8 games after scoring 5 or more goals in their previous game. 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win.

I’m not saying I won’t take hits for him, but he does it a little more often than I do and he makes the easy play when he has to and doesn’t try to complicate too many things. It’s been a good partnership.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 We can say that Folin is more cost-effective than AMac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I am one of the few around who like Hagg and understand what he is supposed to bring to the team i found this... ...pretty solid start. And no telling how far they can go once they get Ghost and Sanheim going. Also i mentioned getting Ghost and TK going would be nice. Some more from Coots would help too. He just got his 1st assist of the season this past win. Sean....please they need more!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickard was way out of position on that one. I hope to God they aren't coaching him to play like that. Like he's never seen someone fake a shot.
