I feel its a lost game, but they need to play hard and play well in the third. If that happens, they can move on and chalk up the loss to a horrendous 2nd period.

Cant discount it, but it will be easier to bounce back from if they win the third and not fall further behind.
- PhillySportsGuy

Agreed -- just keep the feet moving, get the coverages figured out, win the third

What did you win?
- PhillySportsGuy

i'm always right

I think every goal has been. Its infuriating. This team is built to clear the front of the net. I can live with the limited offensive play from this group, but leaving so many guys uncovered in front of the net is unacceptable.

I don't know what the (frank) Luke Schenn is doing on that last goal.

couldve used some help bud

There is no excuse to ever give up 5 goals in a period ever. Just poor mental makeup. It's not even like there were all kinds of power plays for the sharks. Brutal!

I like what the flyers are doing with vinny. Is anyone worried about him not waiving his NTC next week? He can't wait to get the hell out

i'm always right

You must not be married.

I was expecting a sloppy game, first game most of these guys have played in 19 days. But San Jose's talent level will pick you apart if you play fundamentally horrible hockey.

The Flyers are making dumb passes, blowing routine coverages, allowing the Shark to dominate the low slot and areas around the net...perfect recipe for a loss.

Yeah -- they just didn't play well enough in the second against an elite team that's played together for a long time now.

Ugly, and sad to say. But getting railed just means they can see what they need to work on.

Just trying to find some positives in one of the ugliest periods since, what, Dallas?

learning from coburn how to suck at hockey

I was watching on DVR, but decided to check the score after Grossmann served up a terrible turnover and they went ahead 3-2. San Jose are very good but the team and the coach should be ashamed at turning in this kind of effort after having so much time to prepare.

Like someone else said. Fix it in the 3rd, and move on.

It's discouraging, but it's also one game...come out, have a strong third period and forget this mess.

Vinny is completely lost on wing.

Either Vinny or B Schenn needs to go ... they can't continue like this.

Pretty easy choice there... if they can swing it.

No doubt
You won't be the Sharks playing bonehead, soft hockey.
