Aww that's too bad. I had such high hopes.

why is this team so bad
- Winning

A bunch of crappy dmen

Read , Couturier, Corpse had their 3 game run of doing useful things a few weeks ago.

Since we can't have anyone that does anything aggressive on this team , I want to blame Rimaldo but I am sure everyone else will .

this is a weird matchup to watch. each team has what the other one really lacks, and it shows.

Wait so Vandelay Industries keeping Rinaldo outta the lineup?

Getting stonewalled by Dubnyk of all goalies.

Arthur Digby Sellers couldn't write this poop.

Don't worry, despite the fact that the PEB-Vandelay-Vinny line has been their most effective line tonight and been pretty good since it was formed, Berube will put in Zac, because energy

Laughton will be benched soon. I guarantee it.

So sad. There was great potential there.

Have bans been issued? It's been a bit quiet in here lately

I was banned but it was just for an hour because someone complained...

Yah because we need more guys zombieing around the rink..

Its okay to throw a hit..
It's okay to do something assertive and aggressive.

Rimaldo isn't the problem and he isnt the solution..

I just hate seeing such a passive team.

It is ok to throw a hit. Also need to score. They had 14 shots in the first. Need somebody to finish. Rinaldo can't score.

But Zombie will continue to get his minutes!

Certainly..Short of Giroux and Voracek this team is very feast or famine on offense.

Simmonds, Read, Couturier, B. Schenn are way too streaky when it comes to scoring.

Well White will be back and instead of Velde being the guy to go Laughton will. Then maybe Giroux or Voracek when Rinaldo gets healthy. Flyers would do better with this lineup

Umberger - Vinny - Rosehill
Rinaldo - Vandevelde - Read
Bellmare - Raffl - Schenn
Couturier - White - Gordon

They are, which is why I don't want to break up the current 4th line to dress Rinaldo. The VandeVelde-Bellmare-Lecavalier line is generating most of the chances. That likely stops as soon as Rinaldo replaces one of those three.

lookin good

Both teams need heaps.
- Pixote Andolini

obviously adding the opposing teams best player on most any night would improve your own squad, but OEL is exactly what the flyers need, in the same way that Giroux is exactly what the yotes need.

lookin good

If Rinaldo is going to get another shot, the smart move would be to put him in Umberger's place.

Agreed. Doubt Berube does that, though.
