Best lines ever!
- YuenglingJagr

You know what's great?
The other team will play their top D against 11/14/93 which will free up Giroux to not get killed by playing against top D all game long

Read may not be the long term solution, but G,Raffl and add a sniper... look out

Also think Schenn, Simmonds are the makings of a nice third scoring line

One scoring winger for G away from magic I think

Great second period!

I'll openly admit I was sour on the Coaching decisions, most noticeably the lines heading into today's ontest. One thing I didn't bring up is how bad the Flyers have been during matinee games. I've been proven wrong. I didn't say it but I was thinking it, so here I was absolutely proven wrong.

However....

If you don't think these lines are a waste of time or a short term solution, you're kidding yourself. The top six will play with the top six and the bottom six will play with the bottom six heading into the playoffs. In fact after the Tampa Bay Power Play goal, Giroux and Voracek were glued back together. It was a situation of circumstance but when it's all said and done, yes, these lines are a waste of time because they'll be changed in the near future.

The last two games featured realist line combinations.

Not sure what April has to do with it but that line has had a strong game.

Will they last? Are these ideal playoff lines?

It was after a PK where Coots just saw a lot of action and Hakstol likes to start the next shift after a PK with 28-93. Then it was 4 on 4. They always go 28-93 4 on 4. Lines didn't change.

It's truly amazing how good the top 9 (the top 9 we pretty much have wanted for a while) looks.....then 4th line goes on the ice. Goal against, penalty against, endless pressure in their own zone. (frank)ing night and day.

Just want to reiterate on this fresh ice of page

Schenn is a poor even strength player and doesn't belong in the top 6

Are these lines a long term solution? I can't pain more of a picture for you than I already have.
