Howie58 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Greetings: We are underdogs against a hot Vegas club that balances good scoring and sound defense: https://winnersandwhiners.com/games/nhl/10-21-2019/vegas-golden-knights-vs-philadelphia-flyers-prediction-8062/ The "outshoot but underscore" phenomenon is disturbing and I have to wonder if our first line is truly a first line by NHL standards. Farabee and Vorobyev join the parent club. Maybe an infusion of youth/skill makes a difference. Either way, the O and B Brain Trust must realize the current roster needs rejuvenation: https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/flyers/joel-farabee-flyers-roster-mikhail-vorobyev-carsen-twarysnki LGF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Maybe we move Farabee to the first line and Konecny to the third line so he can help get JVR on track. Konecny is playing well so maybe his play can rub off on the third line guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 This is a better lineup with the added players. Not sure i understand Giroux back at center but who am i to question AV. Now just go score some damn goals. Oh and please stop the puck too. I would prefer Pitlick in the lineup over Stewart.

jammer2 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 This might be one of the last chances for Ghost to produce offense of some sort. We all know there are far better defensive options. Ghost simply has to produce pts to keep his spot...and time is running out. At least Morin would provide something of value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 Starting Elliott signals Hart and holds him accountable....I can't argue with that. Stewart...don't get. I am wondering if management sees a Patrick return in the next few weeks? His return would bring more shuffling. I will be at work tonight; look forward to the board's take post-game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 I thought having Stewart on board would spare the youngins of healthy scratches/limited playtime and allow for farm development. That may still happen. Under a worst case. the guy is waived and claimed. Meanwhile, I suspect coming weeks will bring further line juggling.

RonJeremy Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Why do they let Voracek carry the puck up ice? He doesn't know when to dump the puck and causes offsides, holds on way too long and constantly turns it over. It didn't take him long tonight to turn it over. Im beginning to hate him.
