Jesus Christ guys. Relax. Berube put the 4th line out there just to get back into rolling his lines. The change was made on the fly with 10 seconds left on the PP.

If you're gonna female dog about the coach, choose to female dog at times he deserves to be female doged about.

I'll join you, but this is not one of those times.

That's all true, but that speaks to just what kind of depth they currently have

When's the last time the Flyers and Devils played and neither Brodeur or Elias were involved?

read blocked a shot on a pp and it turned into a delayed call 2 on 1 with coots the other way, which coots scoring off the pass. read then scored himself later in the period.

2nd period was meh. devils scored on a pp with 3 old farts doing the honors. flyers pp has been less than inspiring.

Patrik Elias' reign of terror against our heroes began in the 1997-98 season, though he did get a 17-game run in 1996-97, where I'm sure all five points he collected were against...let's see, who would that have been...Hextall/Snow?

How does it? They just had a PP where the players that make up lines 1-3 are part of the PP units. That leaves one line intact to come out for the next shift.

Are you truly trying to say that it's impossible for an NHL team to go a full two minutes with players who make up their top three lines?

I think it's pretty clear what I was saying, and it's a pretty routine situation to easily understand. And it has nothing to do with the Flyers depth.

I don't know. They've already put together their solid 20 minute effort in the first period.

No, it's not clear what you're saying, because the coach could've done any number of things, including double-shifting players who could actually score
