Even if he got traded the Flyers have enough players to more than make up for his absence.

Even before that ridiculous showing by Hartnell he's been a very frustrating player tonight.

All cuz the Lightning dude fell over the back of the net near Hartnell.

I think at the end of it goaltending was the difference this game.

Lindback held them in, when the Flyers were pushing and although Emery battled hard, he was beat by the guy on the other end of the ice.

They didn't deserve this one imo. You really like Hartnell when he is on one of his hot streaks, but I've never been a huge fan of such high risk/high reward players.

He took two stupid penalties in this game.

Seemed like a fairly weak call, and just before Hartnell's 1st penalty G got away with a nice hook, so it was Karma.

They are playing very soft in this game. I think I've seen three hits the whole game. Why are they just swinging their sticks and not taking players? They never play like this.

That penalty isn't the reason the Flyers are losing. They're losing because they had breakdowns in their defensive zone and allowed the Lightning to have point blank opportunities.

Didn't Jones pick Hartnell as the player to watch at the beginning of the game?

And letting a bad goalie get into their heads.

I've got the Tampa feed, not sure.

There has definitely been a lot of "dumb" on the crew in recent years. All the credit to Lindback and that Lightning D. They held, but didn't break. Showing great desperation in the times when it counted most.

Too many defensive breakdowns and too much suspect goaltending by Emery today. Remember, they are in the playoffs. You have to play and beat the best. No need to worry until next week.
