Howie58 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Greetings: The Flyers come into the game as heavy underdogs. https://causewaycrowd.com/2021/02/20/boston-bruins-lake-tahoe-preview-center-2021-22/ The Bruins will be without David Krejci. We are without our Captain and others. I think Bill Meltzer's take is on point. Hart can't let in softies and our special teams have to step it up. The youngsters have to play their A game. https://www.nhl.com/flyers/news/practice-report-16-back-on-the-ice/c-321467216 LGF.

Howie58 Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 Apparently the bad ice impacts the play even more than the sun. The time change is a plus for me... better for a libation. I agree with one read that the game is a test for Carter Hart. He is not off to a great start, and the Bruins have his number. We have a good record despite lousy metrics and being wildly outshot. Fans and AV/CF have to wonder when the luck runs out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the guys in front of him have (A) allowed the 2nd most shots against in the entire league, and (B) have the dead last worst in the league shots for...yes Hart isn't off to a great start...but the skaters on the team are off to a brutal start. I don't know where the hell AV thinks this system is going to get them, but it's all smoke and mirrors that they aren't fighting the Sens and Sabres for the 1st overall pick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 Dear FC: I guess Blitz Hockey is working for now, but you're right, as playoffs approach, D and special teams will matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I may watch now just to see big Sammy!!!! Friedman: For me it's just been a grind throw this year. I'll try to treat it as another game. But obviously it's special: an outdoor game against one of the best teams in the league.. .. I'll try to play my game, feisty like a little rat. Glad I have big Sammy on my line. #bourbonup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 Carter needs to wake up and make a tough stop tonight. I'll allow that visuals aren't the best but the second left me angered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trevluk Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I know we are missing 6 "starting" players but this is another pathetic showing against the B's and yet another choke on the big stage for the Flyers. 1-5 in outdoor games. If the Flyers accept another invitation to play outdoors I'm going to take a dump on Fletcher's doorstep. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 I think Carter is either having a sophomore or junior slump. His numbers are too different from Elliott's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 This Bruins squad manhandled us with a "normal" squad. As others have said, we have been lucky to win given underlying numbers. Tonight we were outplayed and Hart let in some soft goals that were deflating. I wonder if there is a physical problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Holy lopsided score Batman... went to bed early because I have to be at work super early.
