mason deserves so much more than this.

simply not enough. nice third period effort, but nothing to show for it. simply not enough with a whole week in front of them. in fact, it's beyond unacceptable and completely embarrassing.

1-7.

Need to start burying their chances. Simmonds, Schenn, Voracek all had quality chances. Missed nets, bad decisions on not shooting. They are squeezing the stick for sure. The atrocious effort in the 2nd period was unacceptable.

Should've gave Giroux another 6 mill... The laugh value would've been worth it.

Not advocating anything. How good is Vanek in his all around game and were would he play on the current roster?

Oh yeah there's another cliche term this Philadelphia culture like to say over and over...

Effort
Heart
Jam
Toughness
Grit
Winning

The ingredients of the Philadelphia Culture!

- Glak18

I'd like to add, "great offseason" and "market value" to that list.

It's not just the stick they're squeezing. Their asses are more water tight than a frogs.

Lets trade for some defense because that is clearly the issue.
How is it possible to play 8 games and score 9 goals?
Maybe people should cry more about Rosehill being on the team.
Maybe they should cry more about Rinaldo having 1 dumb game in the past 100 or so.
Maybe the should cry more about Coburn.
Wait i know..they should talk about Couturier and how he is the second coming of Datsyuk in a few years.

give me a break.. We need offensive talent and I hope it comes over this week off.

He's not a player that would be considered a 2 way player. He's an offensive player, who would likely play with Giroux.

They went from a mediocre team that scored a little to a crappy team that rarely does.

Helluva summer!

personally the last thing I want to see happen is trading of any young players or picks for a guy like Vanek as good as he is. moves like that will just continue to set this team back. I recall it taking time to improve under lavy. I want to see patience under berube and if this season does become a total trainwreck, then move out some of the veterans with trade value and collect assets.
