indecision or a trade that fell thru?
- isaiah520



I think it has more to do with a lack of clarity on what their actual plan was. Or could very well be indecision.

One game does not make a trend.

I saw some things I liked (effort, Mason was pretty good, #40 looked pretty comfortable) and some things I didn't like (juicy rebounds with uncovered trailing men).

Plenty of time to make corrections.

You apparently do, because the Flyers got the PP. But you want to use a bias against Rosehill to make an inaccurate statement to what actually did happen. And if you want to use woulda, shoulda, coulda. I can do the same and say that Rosehill actually drew the PP by antagonizing Orr. That game is a two way street.

You can call it a bias if you'd like. But the sequence of events are indisputable. If you want to lump them into one play, to confirm your bias, that's on you.

How is not one play? It happened on the same shift, in the same corner of the ice. You stated that Rosehill cost the Flyers a PP. That is innacurate. That never happened. My description is objective and without bias. There were 3 penalties called. 1 to the Flyers, and 2 to the Leafs. Which is why they got the PP. Simple as that. And here is the Game Summary. You'll notice that all 3 penalties were given at the same time. Those are the facts. But it's not the same play?

Good point. And you just know they'd be pestering the fanbase with their fictional Star Trek scripts.

There's not a strong enough beat to entice anyone to clap or stomp or Hey along. It's not a celebration song. It was disappointing.
