If this kid stands on his head, who knows. Or if we have a goal fest. And that is possible. I am about to go see if Housley is going with Ullmark? Its possible. He is unbeaten also. The Sabres seem to play very well on the road, even though they are 6-2-2 at home. They are confident and if the other team is up, they do not panic.

If you get beat it might be a big deal to your GM. I have a lead on Pilldoc right now. I want to see where that goes. I will be around win or lose.

The pressure is on the Sabres at home against a team that is struggling....yeah...we'll see what happens when pressure is applied. If Flyers can come out and play like they did vs Tampa towards the end of the game i like their chances. If Lyon can make some key/routine even saves to give them a chance the Flyers could make this a game. Flyers have to stay out the box and we they don't the PK and goalie needs to give them a chance. The JVR and the PP gang need to capitalize on their chances. #fingerscrossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo is always expected to lose. Are you kidding? Now the Flyers may have lost some respect of the National media, but some are now saying the Sabres can make it, and some are on the fence. I think they have opened some eyes at the very least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 As a team the Flyers have the worst save percentage in the league at a combined .880 (Elliott raised his, after an abysmal start, to .911). Their goals-against average is 3.55, third most in the NHL. Pickard, whom the Flyers picked up off waivers at the start of the season, has allowed 27 goals in parts of eight games. He has a .852 save percentage and 4.60 goals-against average. It would make a lot of sense if, for that reason, Lyon got a crack next. Both of the Flyers’ active goalies have spent more time in the American Hockey League than the NHL. Lyon played 11 games with the Flyers last season and had a .905 save percentage. “I don’t know if I’m more relaxed (because of last year’s experience),” Lyon said. “I’m just ready to lay all my chips on the table and kind of see where I’m at and play as hard as I can and the best that I can and I feel comfortable with myself. If I do that, I can live with the results.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bizarro world! What I like about Folin is that he hits a lot more than MacDonald and seems more proactive defensively. MacDonald is purely reactive and usually not in a good way.

And he will actually skate TOWARDS the puck carrier instead of constantly conceding the defensive zone. I prefer my defenseman not all the time but sometimes challenge guys entering the zone. Mcturd never does that....he back pedals chasing guys all over the defensive zone getting way out of position and if isn't doing that he is playing soft and screening his own goalie. Get him the f**k outta here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
