Did last night set a record for most goals that went in off of own players sticks?

Flyers had 2/5 plus one off Simmers boot, Habs had the B Schenn Bryz Duck goal, not sure if their first went off a Flyer D man.

I wonder if they were once told that the more people that touch the puck before it goes in the more the point counts?
Or they just rubbin some love onto it?
Or? Or?
Frellin shoot it...

Put three guys around G on the half wall with the top guy floating up to eat some of Kimmo's shots and bang! PP over...
4th guy can just hang out with the guy we put in front of the net... pass one back and forth with their goalie...

G draws the defense, dumps it low to Simmonds, goalie slides to cover Simmonds, Czechie has a slam dunk goal back door if Simmonds handles and passes it clean

Nope, can't be on the defenseman. Always the goalie's fault.

Completely random thought, but I remember when Flyers were on 24/7 it seemed to add pressure and all that stuff. How do these Oilers do it with the Oil Change or whatever its called? These are young guys constantly on camera. Im all for getting as much info about my favorite players as possible, but at some point they gotta go to work without the TV crews. I dunno, just struck me as odd and how different things are now than a few years ago.

He's a young professional athlete who was considered one of the bright young stars of the sport a few years ago. Of course he wants to be a #1 goalie. Can't blame him there.

Is that why you play in the NHL? Cause you didn't duck? Please, tell me more about how much better you play the net than Bryz.
- KGBflyers10


PLEASE stop. Grow up.

Did I say I played in the NHL? Did I ever say I was good? Better than Bryz? WTF is wrong with you. I was responding to Flyskippy about the other guy being a goalie and HE ducked, saying that I haven't.. Post like that.. oh nevermind.

"At the Wells Fargo Center, the Flyers jumped to a 2-1 lead on the Bruins after Simon Gagne banked an Oliver Lauridsen wide shot into the net. It held for all of the next 20 seconds, in which the Bruins somehow scored twice to take the lead, the second time by deflecting a shot off Brayden Schenn and over the head of a frantically gesticulating Ilya Bryzgalov"

what do we have to brag about?
- Marc D

At the moment? Not much. But we love to brag about big player acquisitions, until they make a mistake. Then we go back to our other past time.

Oh OK, She mentioned rotator cuff in a post with Couts.

I think Mezzy has a very tough road back, recurrent surgery on the same shoulder is never good.

It could be career threatening, and even if he recovers it could be 6-8 months of rehab.

Homer has to plan on having someone to replace him in the worst case scenario.

i was just waiting to pounce on any post from jak, i wanted his expertise on the mesz injury

We also like to brag about not making 'the stupid trade' that other team made. That is, until the player they got starts playing well, once again cue the female doging about 'omg why not did we trade EGG ON FACE [inset GM name]'

But how could you say that?! Just because people are happy to get or delusionally propose ridiculous trades constantly for certain players doesn't mean they'll scapegoat him when they can't figure out what's going on with the team other than looking at the stat sheet.
