Yup. We have not seen Flyer Hockey all season. We don't need brawling or staged fights, but this team needs some edge and some grit that comes in a skilled package. Guys like Lucic. I know they don't grow on trees, but that is exactly what they need, along with a top shelf Dman and a 1A Dman.

I would not mind if they found some size that could play a grinding game with possession in the bottom 6

It's disappointing that Umberger has been so poor on the wall and while the fourth line has been much improved lately, I wonder if having Bellemare and Vandevelde is simply giving away a bit too much size on a team that really isn't all that big

I think I would take Marner 3rd. He's that good.

There needs to be a mercy rule...

He's good but he's not 3rd overall good. Not right now.

I hope you're right and he falls to us at 5.

Oh Morin, slow footwork on that one.

They awoke Russian bear...and Morin tripped him

Trade him while he still has value

This would be so funny if Canada collapses

Won't be suprised if he doesn't see ice again tonight

Morin the goat

Seen this before ...

- Tomahawk

Is he minus -2 tonight so far?

He will but it will be at the normal pace they've use him which was minimal anyway.

They're so rattled

Oh Morin, slow footwork on that one.
- ob18

I blame whoever picked his staple

Love how some still cling to the notions that Euros don't have heart. Down 5-1 in the ACC, the lazy floaters who don't care about winning are scaring the poop out of those hardworking Canadians

His play dipped a bit when he returned from his LBI, after one game. But Berube buried him in the Shelley Suite for most of three weeks. That was ridiculous, and Berube saying that he was happy with the defense was worse.

Del Zotto definitely did enough where he deserved better than a seat in the sky for that long a stretch

This kind of crap can hurt a player's confidence (he practically crushed Akeson's). Berube needs to learn some of the finer points of coaching human beings.

Morin doing his best impression of the Flyer d-core.

Bowey and Hicketts can't defend for poop.

This would be so funny if Canada collapses
- PhillySportsGuy

History shows it can be done.

The Canadian boys know how to attack, but have a jack poop idea how to defend. Play like the Oilers. Flash and dance. Slow it down, or Russia will take this over.

Fucale very average. Kind of hope to see Russia win, love the underdogs.
