So not a top pair defenseman?
- Mordecai

Obviously not I mean he won the Norris and all but he's definitely only a 2nd pair guy

In my opinion Karlsson is one of those outliers. Hes so dominant offensively and with the puck that he can make a big impact on the game,.despite his subpar defensive play.

solid road win. Provys block at the end was the key play to seal it. Kid is really playing solid.

Where have the card carrying members of Team Negative been over the past 5 games?

Exactly what I thought!

I like how JJ was losing his poop touting the aggressiveness of Lavy for pulling the goalie with.......1:56 left.

That's not aggressive at all haha! That's completely normal. Aggressive would have been with 5 on the dot left when the top line was ravaged with a long shift and then an icing and were dead tired without a time-out. That would have been aggressive and interesting.

I enjoyed our discourse you're a good sport MJL

Such a great game again for the kid. Mason looked really solid too. A lot of good things in this one. Philly is back in the positive for goal differential!

I will also comment that the Nashville feed was super professional and overall great.

They've really cleaned up their defensive team play, and gotten sharper systems wise. They got a little loose in the 2nd period for a while, but tightened back up. I'd like to see them have more attack in the 3rd period, rather than just defending the entire period.

Agreed. No idea why the Boston and Florida commentators feel the need to be outright homers.

Simmonds was great with two PP goals, but Michael Raffl was the Flyers best forward at 5 on 5 tonight in my opinion.

Raffl's best game of the year...solid, solid win.....guys can say what they want about VDV but he really is rewarding the coach with the loyalty that's been shown him.

Agree on both counts. I found the criticism towards Vandevelde playing regularly, unfounded.
