yeesh

i like you, and i like only about 5 penguins fans, so thats saying something

was a fantastic game tonight, neither team deserved to lose tbh. Emery was great for us.
Fun & entertaining as always.
- FLYERSROCK!

appreciate it. yeah the good conversation makes the game a little more palatable haha

lots of players starting to come around. Simmonds looked like a monster tonight.

- FlyerGuy

simmer has been good the last few games
a force out there, and playing within in himself if you know what I mean

Neal tried to concuss two Flyers on one shift with jumping headshots. Let us know when Schenn ever does something that dirty.
- Feanor

good luck

- FLYERSROCK!

we will trade three top six forwards for hemsky or something

So... Did Chris Kunitz even play tonight?
- Schenn2shine

after the kick in, he became such a perimeter player. love him as a player, but he isnt a sniper. if he loses the sandpaper he becomes ineffective

For all his good defensive plays, Coots still makes some bad mistakes with the puck at both ends...the failed clears and turnovers, especially in the defensive zone, detract from his overall defensive game which I think still has a ways to go in my eyes...and offensively, he looks inept. He's so young that I can't nail down his potential yet, but let's just say I'm not as enamoured as some with his defense...he makes some plays others make too but it seems like when it's Coots, it's elevated to a Selke level performance. He's good, but not that good...yet (imo).
- exlund

A lot of his struggles in the defensive end, in my mind still have a lot to do with him being a wiry 20 year old that still needs to fill out. I dont see a whole lot of turnovers from him. But yes I'm thrilled with his defense and think hes a future Selke candidate. He is doing less offensively this year than his first 2, which is a concern, I would like that arrow to be pointing up

you and canadian pens fan are ok in my book

where the heck has he been anyway

- Marc D

yup. simplified his game. doesnt try to be the puck carrier. plays to his strengths. some goals will come to him soon if he keeps it up.

he is having a very solid year so far

I think this is the best I've seen him play in 2-3 years
- Marc D

I have no way to prove it, but it seems like Coburn carries the puck a LOT more under Berube vs under Lavy. It just plays into his strengths more.

after the boo boo tonight he was very good

A fan of yours too, Sir. Always welcome around these parts!

Even if you think Schenn is a punk

and he's getting shots on net sometimes... crazy!

Yeah well after Luke said hello his game definitely said goodbye.

- Marc D

- Giroux_Is_God

haha thanks. and im sorry but he is. to be fair, if i wasnt a pens fan id think neal is a punk as well.

it wouldve hurt a little less if it was read who got to pot it

- exlund

ex I think coots has show progress this year, even if not scoring

looks stronger, better on faceoffs

his potential is still very high

the advance stat people can show you his possession numbers are very good, to me he passes the eye test

Yeah well after Luke said hello his game definitely said goodbye.
- Pixote Andolini

yeah. i hope he didnt get hurt or something. usually that kind of thing raises his game. but he was a perimeter player who largely shied away from getting his nose dirty after that.

- stayinthefnnet

There's actually plenty of decent fans from other teams around. I'd definitely lump you in that category.

- stayinthefnnet

Yeah he was hearing bells and footsteps most likely. He should be fine.

the opening face off play?

that was crazy

- Just5

yeah he is still crazy young. that cant be overlooked. if he was just called up from the AHL this year people would be gushing about his potential. no, i dont think he is ever going to become a stamkos, but still. can be that 15 to 20 goal, 40 point shut down center no problem.

that was crazy
- Marc D

honestly cannot believe they came back from that and didn't freeze up... like i said earlier it looks like a different team... the old team that i knew and loved!
