In his last 13 games, Sean Couturier has 5 goals and 6 assists and is +10.

In his last 13 games, the horrible, awful, soon to be overpaid Claude Giroux has 5 goals and 8 assists and is +7.

Nice game against what basically amounted to a panther like lineup and an ice cold goalie. The issues remain.

Couts is looking very promising. He wins all those 50 50 battles. He's special

somewhat soft? are you kidding me? dude...

I agree.

That shot from Franzen was a pretty well placed laser, IMO. A guy like him shoots from there, that's gonna happen.

For all the Brayden haters

2nd on the team in points
enough said.

Baby Schenn can score and has a bunch of skill, but is pretty inconsistent and invisible at times.

You have to remind yourself he just turned 22 last August and to be patient. It can be tough being patient with a kid who was handed a top 6 forward slot, however.

point blank, while skating, an absolute rocket off the inside of the post. there was NOTHING soft about that goal, except for the play of the team in front of him that allowed it to happen.

Be happy and enjoy winning in an arena where we'd won one game since 1989? Pffft. F that.

I thought it was possible that Sean Couturier would be the Flyers' best player three years from now.

If he keeps playing like this...I'm not entirely certain that he won't be the Flyers' best player at the end of this season. If he isn't already -- Claude Giroux's more polished, but with Couturier playing with confidence and actually having wingers who can score, plus getting PP time...

By the Olympic break...I don't know that we won't have seen a subtle changing of the guard. Couturier looks like a different player, and it's tremendous to see.

hartnell was on the ice for one of the goals, and that's only because he came out of the box after punching that guy in the head and stayed on the ice. he hunted down the dump in that started the play...but c'mon tsn.

Sometimes a good shooter just beats a goalie, and that's ok, especially given the strength and location of that shot.

Even without zetterberg and dats the redwings are light years ahead of the panthers.
