LOL I see that the offensive version of yerself has showed up here!! I watched much of the game. I'd say our best performers, or most noticeable at least, were, in no particular order: Hayes, Coots, Niskanen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it matter he only played 9 minutes on the 4th line his mission wasn't to score. Let me guess you had worked all day preparing an excuse had he done so and you wanted to use it. Wait hold onto it so you can use it next time he scores... #cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 What is forgotten sometimes, at least by me is how last 7 of the 13 forwards that played and 6 of the 7 defenseman as well as the starting goaltender were all home grown. Basically 64% of last night's roster. That is a huge change is the good ol days. The number could be even higher (73%) if Farabee and Frost replaced Grant and Thompson. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farabee did play yesterday. So really the number would be lower if Frost were to replace Thompson or Grant. I thought Grant looked good in the 2 periods I watched. I didn't think Yung Beezey had the best day. I wonder if Frost gets any time at all or if he's in the "in case of emergency break glass" group? What you're saying is cool though, I think the home grown aspect of the team bodes well for the short term future. Until we get "blackhawked".

And the best part about that is most of those guys haven't hit their prime yet. We should have most of them for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I forgot about Farabee not a shot at him just an honest lapse in my memory I was inebriated yesterday. But I do remember him looking like he was pressing a little to much chasing the game instead of letting it come to him. He knows he is in a heated battle with Thompson for that lineup spot. May the best man win. Edited July 30, 2020 by OccamsRazor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Flyers look GOOD Small sample and all, but I would say they looked like they had the same kind of confidence in their play. And in each other. With Ghost seemingly back to the form he had prior to getting the yips (or whatever the hell was going on with him), and with Friedman looking like he knows his way around an NHL rink. Well, suddenly we look deep at all positions (maybe not goal). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to respond with the oft used "trade him now! His value will never be higher" and, I have run out of excuses for him, so I will just have to trust the bourbon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No real big contact. In a real game I look for NAK to be in fast and hard on the bodies of the Broons' D on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
