Giroux and Simmonds are being outscored in the series by Holtby. Probably not going to make a difference what scrubini they add as the 12th forward. I agree Medvedev shot get a chance.

Since Umberger doesn't really seem to be an option with 2 regulars out makes me think he's going to be bought out.

Med is gone after the season, not much point playing him now.

I'd bring in CMac over Weal, they need size to compete with the Caps. I'd like to see Medvedev get a shot, but I doubt it happens.

Idk, i think we need more skill to beat these guys. we dont generate good shots, no rebound chances, no traffic in front of the net. CMac is definitely size and grit, but no offensive talent to speak of.

Another thing, why does White continue to be on the 2nd pp unit, i understand his role, but when hes given the puck any type of pressure knocks him off. if G and Voracek and ghost cant find a way to operate, how in the world will White???

Mason is rattled. They have to make a change somewhere.

Well, if he'd never introduced us, it wouldn't have happened. So really, it's Matt's fault for his friend pissing on my carpet, I mean, swearing in front of her.

The point of playing him now is that he (arguably) gives them a better chance of winning if he plays.

Flyers are 0-3 when I watch so hopefully not watching today will help the team. It is just like when I go to games. Flyers are 0-1-2 when I attend a game

The official score sheets for those games do not include your name so you are clear to do whatever you wish regarding the game tonight.

I was 4-2-3 this year at games and was in attendance for both Capitals games. Am I allowed to go?

That depends. Did you or your assignee throw a bracelet onto the ice at game three?

In fact, had Adam and Eve not prolonged the human race after being created out of nothing, no one would have thrown anything. So really, like everything else in life, it's really God's fault.

Agreed, that's why it should have happened last game.

thats true, but it is hardly his fault were in this situation. 2 goals in 3 games?? i mean he hasnt been a the brightest spot, but he kept us in every game EVEN with some of the bad goals. putting in neuvirth i think sends a bad message, which i would hate to have a carry over effect. how would you feel if you were replaced after starting 12 games in a row and having one of the best stretches of hockey to get ur team in the playoffs, and after battling for half a series get taken out for things that really all werent your fault.

think they should stick with him and let him try to use the chip on his shoulder to turn it around. neuvirth has played one game in the last 2 months.

And it didn't. That doesn't mean they shouldn't now, though.

I'd be shocked if RJ wasn't bought out.

- wolfhounds

Why?

Primarily because he is our starter. His play single-handedly got them a playoff spot with that stretch run. The team has scored 2 goals in 4 games. Despite the weird 5 hole goal, he has been shellacked and still has stood on his head for the most part.

If we are pointing fingers, Mason is the last one to be pointed at.

Wanna make changes? How about we dont sit on our (frank)ing asses while shorthanded. How about we shuffle the PP up... A PP that has been abysmal for about 3 months.

How about we put Medvedev.


There are probably 15 changes I make before taking Mason out, and putting in a goalie who hasnt played in over a month.

Michael Neuvirth is the first goalie on the ice this morning. We’ll see if that means anything.


Dave Isaac ‏@davegisaac 21m21 minutes ago
Looking like #Flyers Game 4 starter is Michal Neuvirth.


Dave Isaac ‏@davegisaac 7m7 minutes ago
Looks like an optional skate this morning, but Steve Mason did come out.

Dave Isaac ‏@davegisaac 4m4 minutes ago
Now everyone is out there for #Flyers.
