OccamsRazor Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Not encouraged by the last two games but man it would be nice if the Flyers could find a way to get up and play hard for this game. If they can't get up for this game then they never will. To bad Gudas will miss it and it will be Simmonds last game in orange and black. I think Flyers find a way to win. Flyers 5 Pens 3 Fly Flyers Fly!!!! Show up please...everyone will be watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Greetings: The Penguins are a mild favorite: https://www.oddsshark.com/nhl/pittsburgh-philadelphia-odds-february-23-2019-1024540 The Pens have won nine of the last 12. https://sportschatplace.com/picks/nhl/philadelphia-flyers-vs-pittsburgh-penguins-2-23-19-nhl-pick-odds-and-prediction Some players may be wearing their respective team sweaters for the last time. Between that and the weather, it may be a distracted, messy performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkscrewy Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Yay the goalie carousel continues. Oh you had two bad games after winning 9 in a row? We need a hot hand. Ride the pine, young gun. JFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Can you believe the stiff Elliot is getting the start...he’s played about 4 periods of hockey in the past 3 months. I hope he gets lit up. Hart has earned the starting position for this game. He had a couple of bad games and now you bench him for the biggest game yet, way to ruin his confidence. Elliot sucks and is barely a member of this team and has no future with the team. Stick with the guy that revived the team, Hart. I hope Elliot gets injured on the rainy ice.

Howie58 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I have to agree with some of the journalists covering the game that Elliott may be shopped. i don't like the message to Hart, but if Moose can get us a mid-round pick or prospect, what the heck. Regardless of public announcements, Fletcher knows playoff probability is low. Hart will recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah poor kid had a special mask made for the game. I hope his teammates feel good about it all he has done for them and now he gets the hook because they can defend their own goddamn net. Typical.

brelic Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Kinda discouraged Gordon isn’t starting Hart in a game he’s earned. Playoffs are not happening now. Do the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott may be a character guy in the locker room, but he's been nothing but a rebound machine on the ice. It's also not as if he's been our backstop forever to whom the team owes some sort of debt. Maybe he'll get injured in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthbal Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 https://twitter.com/NHLFlyers/status/1099308065596342278 So looks like Talbot will be the backup tonight... I wonder when did Hart get his injury? And the F*** did they play him in so many games if he was injured? Hope they have not ruined him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoffs are not happening now. Do the right thing. Well the worst part to me was that saying he wasn't playing because thee are things he needs to work on. I agree sure he needs to get back to the form he had before the two losses. But it isn't all on him the team in front of him seem to have forgotten how to defend the end where he resides for some reason. So is he going to bench the team?? Is he going to bench Sanheim has been horrible at defense for about two weeks now?? Is he going to bench Provorov because even though he has played better he has still been making some miscues out there. Is he going to bench Jake and Simmer for their continued floating and not play in their own end?? Or even JVR for being just missing in action??? Hell no. So why or God's green earth would you single out a 20 year old goalie because his play has slipped and he has things he needs to brush up on?? This is the whole problem i have with this. I can't wait for the season to be over so we can show this coaching staff the door. This to me is what can kill a kid's confidence and it feels like something Hak would do so he can put his 40 year old vet between the pipes now that he is healthy.

I guess this will give them a good chance to get a better draft pick now....a slide down to the bottom how quick can they do it?? They are only 14 points from the bottom i feel they have a better shot at that now than the playoffs. Stick a fork in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 I sure hope Simmonds doesn't get hurt in this game and pulls a JVR to avoid a trade... ...we see the Sens getting smart and aren't risking playing their assets...Flyers can't because they have 40 goalies on the roster. Wow talk about throwback jerseys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 I hate now that we won't be able to see Hart's cool mask. However i like Elliott's mask too... Pretty sweet....i say he gets yanked by the start of the second after the Pens go up 3-0 in the first and we will see Talbot get his debut.
