And the NHL has a great equalizer. A poor team can get a goaltender standing on his head like Clemmensen is doing tonight. Florida is a very poor team, who also has their fair share of injuries. There is no excuse for this type of performance.

Clemmensen has played well. But Flyers need to get more pucks to the net, and get some rebounds and second chance opportunities. They simply haven't played well. They had the same breakdowns and mistakes last night. They got away with it because the Pens had the same, and poor goaltending. Florida has played well tonight.

edit: for the Flyers, that is.

no, but they're easier to come by ... which is what's happening.

It's not that we're that intense. We're just playing a weaker opponent.

Florida has played well. They haven't made the colossal errors that the Flyers have made. This is a game about mistakes. Can't play that way against any NHL opponent.

Clemmensen has done this before to the Flyers several times where he has looked like the greatest goalie in the league.

I had a feeling after the game last night this wouldn't be an easy game. I had no idea it would be 4-0 after two periods, throw in the Read news and last night really doesn't mean a hill of beans.

Sure it does. It was 2 points against a Division opponent. Read is one player. Unfortunately, they didn't back it up tonight.

Meh. The injuries have taken a lot of starch out of this team. It's not a bad collection of players, but there isn't enough consistency here to make the playoffs most likely. It happens.

I'm tired of the "injury" excuse. Life goes on and your getting paid to play hockey. Need to perform no matter what. No reason to come home and get torched by the Panthers.

Under 8 to go in the 3rd

There's nothing else to say. The Flyers got KO'ed tonight. Can't lose games to teams that are bottom feeders.

Couturier needs to shoot more he passes up to many scoring chances trying to make that extra pass.

I still do. It's not the end of the world if they miss, but I think they can make the playoffs.

Not likely to the current 97 points he has but maybe a decent amount.
