Still good.

If I remember though, Hall was a few ticks higher than that like in the 56ish range....Hall is the better faceoff guy in my opinion.

Hall was at 59% for the Flyers.

So not watching this, but just from the score and the games I've seen so far. If things don't change it's going to be a short season for Lava and a long one for the fans.

Tonight they have a skeleton crew playing, but the last game against the Devils they were playing an almost full roster, and it looked just like the 2012 playoffs. The Flyers had an awful transition game that was easy for the Devils to disrupt that stymied them at 5 on 5 and the Flyers seemed to have no answer for it, yet again.

Granted, it's pre-season and the players are likely not going full speed yet. That said, it's a concern

Mason is getting lit up again, can't be good for confidence.

First goal was an odd man rush from the blue line in, one defenseman slid to prevent the cross ice pass...the 2nd one, every Flyers skater was on the left wing boards and Steve Bernier was all alone in front. Mason made first stop, but Bernier made a good deke and got it past him on the rebound.

Didn't see the third goal, just that Larsson got it.

I know it's only preseason, but I think we should tear up the team. YES, that includes trading Richards and Carter.

They gave the third to Zubrus. Larrson shot it from the point, it bounced around the crowd in front, off Zubby and in.

I've seen teams dominating the preseason, and the fall apart after a few games in the regular season, and vice verse. Won't put too much emphasis on this game, except that we suck against the devils. Luckily we play them fewer times than previous seasons (right?).

I didn't see the scoring change...I'm much less concerned about tonight..they were dressing the B team to get guys another look...not a big deal, just didn't look good at all.

Yes, but there's greater emphasis on divisional games-or at least standings-this year

part of me is convinced that (frank)ing Richards told his old juniors coach some sort of secret way to beat Lavy...

True. But I'm hoping that Pens, Islanders, Caps and Hurricane matchups will continue to favor the Flyers. And hopefully Rangers won't play Torts-hockey anymore and that BJs are manageable.

Was it Devils and Islanders the Flyers would play one extra time compared to the others or am I remembering it wrong?
