I love our rushes into the rangers zone. Skate to the blue line.. coast.. look for trailer who is covered... attempt to pass to him... turn puck over...

or.. rush into ranger zone... stop skating.. do a 180 and wait for someone else to do something... when nothing forms.. turn the puck over...

Still waiting to see some heart from these female doges.

So let me get this straight... Mase is good to play in this game but not start?

ok, clarkie.....piss poor, deflating goals let in at bad times is one of the reasons we're down 1-2; not the only reason, maybe not the main reason but to ignore it is just beyond sensible.

I think more than anything they are down because they cant handle the speed. One team trying to slow the game down and one trying to speed it up.

They lose races continuously and are chasing the puck/game.

Inability to move the puck from that back end either through skating or quick passes.

There is no transition game.

What's with Rinaldo in this series ???? I don't expect him to score obviously....but he's not hitting ....skating.....was hoping he could bring some spirited play.....he's been invisible.....

Rangers generally are moving the puck and their feet rendering him useless

Luke Schenn has the same amount of shots as Giroux and Hartnell together.

The funny thing is people will blame Emery and the Flyers have scored 1 goal in the first and third games.

If Mason makes two momentum saves oh great..they lose 2-1.

But hey..we got DV2 to shut people down.

- opeth_pa

maybe, maybe not. down 2-1 a lot more can happen than down 3-1 or especially 4-1.....players are subject to the air coming out of the baloon just like fans. poopbag goal goes in and you see/feel the letdown.

I dont get it the rangers flock to the slot every time a dman has the puck and some space. Why is there not a pass to a player at the bottom of the circle? I don't get how this team gets stuck doing one thing all night and cant change things up. its pathetic.

Even with Mase starting this i don't think they win tonight, seeing as the players in front of the goaltender were pathetic.

But if Mase was good to go today why didn't he start? As i feared and thought, Berube i think went with the hot hand. Disagree with that move. If he was good to go, Mason should've started.
