OccamsRazor Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 I would have like to seen Oskar get the LW spot on the 3rd but I am glad JVR is up on the 2nd. Weal on the 4th is better than the 3rd. The next step is getting Weal out the lineup. I would like Folin in over Mcturd but we know Mcturd was a Homer signing so Hak has to keep his boss happy. Guess we'll see where this will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less minutes means less turnovers from him and floating on the back check. I know Simmer isn't signed beyond this year but I would love for the new GM to make Jake his wake up call as a trade....really shake Giroux up!

I think him hiring his dad as his agent was a big misstep on his part also why he isn't signed and they are looking to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 What do you expect? What can you expect? It's a question we've been asking before every game the last few years. I have very little faith in this bunch and their inconsistency is maddening. Keeping Hakstol on board may make things worse. I look forward to your comments; I have a wedding. We are the underdog. Any surprise? https://www.oddsshark.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers-pittsburgh-penguins-betting-2018-12-01-1021790 It appears to be Stolarz versus DeSmith in a battle of underperforming squads.

mojo1917 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I never really realized how much I hated the penguins until I found myself flipping off kris letang on the tv after Weise 's shorty. Simmonds tougher than a 3$ steak...Oleksiak is enormous that took some courage. I love the way TK plays. I love that he hates the Pens too. Nice win tonite.

RonJeremy Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 McDonald 3 assists and a plus 3. The world is coming to an end. Stolarz a solid performance, he made some big saves and looked mechanically sound in net . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samifan Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Loved seeing Gudas knock Cindy around tonight! Pens broadcasts are far less annoying with Stiegerwald being gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Good to get back in the win column especially against the Pens. Still so much this team has to work on. Ge this blueline a coach fast. Ghost has to play that pass better on the 1st goal...he has to keep it from going across in front of him or do the Kimmo slide if the pass was going across behind him....he didn't stop the pass the goalie has to play shooter in that situation he just hasn't to keep the pass from happening...he failed. Nice set up pass by Hagg..even better goal! And then maybe the best pass ever from Jake....trade him NOW his value will never be higher!!!! And then Radko abuses Crysby...got to love it!!! And then a shorty....wow finally!!! The Weasel! And then Stolie closes the door!! I forget what it was like to win. And what about the 3 assist from Paul Coffee Andrew Mcdud!!!!! And the Coots went 13 for 13 in the faceoff circle!!! I don't recall that ever happening!!! 100%!!! Go Cooter!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Amazing the difference a competent goalie makes. Team still had some major defensive gaffes and poor turnovers but Stolie bailed them out. Jesus that is refreshing to see. Also, as much as I despise him, MacDud played well tonight. I would welcome that play from him for the rest of his contract as we are stuck with him one way or the other....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it since about mid season last year after seeing Elliott and Neuvy play. Just someone who makes the routine save and doesn't let a back breaker in is refreshing. With that said Stolie must work on his game still much room for improvement but it's a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he's lost his focus the team usually falters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Just now, flyersfan35 said: is anyone worried that they would keep hak if they keep winning? Nope, not at all. I believe a lot of the problems with the coaching staff on this team had to do with Murphy reporting to Hextall and not Hakstol, making for a disconnected coaching staff. The results we saw on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
