He lives on the west coast. It's 2:30 over there. He's probably just enjoying his coffee

That Mason thing is a kick in the nuts if there ever was one.

Well, not going to back read because I can only imagine ( ), but I'm glad Berube was getting Emery starts down the stretch now. I hope he's ready to go. Real shame if this keeps him out more than a game. He's had a great year overall and the flyers need him.

I really thought when he got his award that he was OK and they were just being cautious

Is what it is. Have to try and ride Emery. Have my doubts, this team is far off from a dominant puck possession squad like Chicago but we will see. Hopefully he gets it done.

It doesn't really even annoy me as much to see Mason hurt, because these things happen. Its frustrating to have been female doged slapped physically by the Penguins in the last game, and they just took it skating off like robots.

BTW feel a little inclined to post that Nutter has completed nursing school today with the final exam, and is waiting on final practicums. If all goes well, I am completely done August 1st.

One play at the net is being female dog slapped physically? That's pretty over dramatic.

They were female doged slapped in that game physically. You can disagree, but imo they got handed to them exactly what they usually do to the Penguins.

Bit of a sour taste in the mouth from that game.

There is no ego involved in it. It's hockey.


I think the Flyers were outplayed in the game for sure. But I don't think they were pushed around physically.

Samuel Morin suffered a strained Achilles tendon pain was too much to return (last night)

Missed the end of the 2nd, most of 3rd, & all of OT.

This injury for Morin is around a 3 - 4 week recovery. He'll be fine before next season.

A bad pinch by one D in OT lead to a 2 on 1 that ended it. I think at 1 point they were down 3 D from various injuries.

They were up 4-0 in that game. Rimouski normally shuts things down when they get a multiple goal lead.

I really wanted to see Morin Matched up against Drouin and Ehlers. It would have been a great test for him.
