I simply don't get it. MDZ leads team in ice time and plays well.....scratched for 2 games. Comes back......leads team in ice time again. It's just madness. There is no logic at all to this.

Also, TK at 5 minutes total time played through 2. Lowest on the team.

He's coaching to win every game no matter the cost, and (frank) the development side of the equation. I dunno, my thoughts on Varsity are known.

Thing with guys like Weal.

I am not against smaller players, but they better be able to skate and have some skill.

A small, and slow team is folly.

The Flyers are SLOW....Their single biggest problem.

My gf's family is from Ohio and I never knew how much Ohio folks liked beating Pittsburgh.

IOW, I feel like a CBJ - Pitt matchup is a pretty good one for the league. Or, at least it's a matchup the league has wanted for a long time..

Pittsburgh will win in 6, even with injuries.

I think it's cute any fanbase in this league short of Pittsburgh or Chicago actually thinks they have a shot at the cup

I'd say lack of elite level talent but that's just me.

They have been a slow team for years.

i haaate that roster. but i am happy to see them doing well as an organization. i like seeing teams get better and grow some roots. it will be a nasty series.

i dont know about that last part. depends who comes back. all starts with 71 and 58.

other guys will obviously help to get back. but theyre obviously make or break.

Wow. It's almost like if you get our best 5v5 scorer away from our worst, and among league worst, that he can do things again. Even for like 5 seconds.

I'm a Penn State Alum, so I hope this doesn't mean they are getting worked.

The lost. Had it close a couple times, but just got worn down. Not sure if they finally we're tired or just outmatched but they looked slow. Denver is really freaking good

For me it is all about Barry Trotz.

He coaches not to lose and year after year that gets exposed in the playoffs.
