If the Flyers go out early and the Phantoms keep going, can they send down Patrick or Konecny? Hagg, Provorov etc?

The Flyers sent down Lindblom on a "paper" move so he would be eligible for the AHL playoffs. Any player not on the AHL roster by the NHL trade deadline is not eligible for the AHL playoffs.

Yeah if they don't have 6 defensemen it could be an emergency recall. There's a limit to how long they can be up though
- YuenglingJagr


Well yeah emergency recall him for Wednesday Thursday and if he looks like a more confident player like he does in the A than we can officially recall.

By the way. TTP this game is ensuring I don't end the weekend crying into my pillow

plenty of time

every single game they forget how to play the entire game of basketball for 10 minutes. Sometimes it's enough to make them lose, sometimes it isn't.

going for 40 turnovers this game

EDIT 27-3 run

that's only 24 laughies. 3 more points.

20 turnovers during the game. 25 pts off turnovers for the Bucks. 9 turnovers in that QUARTER.

THERE'S 12 MINUTES IN A QUARTER

They're literally going to blow two 20 point leads en route to losing.

I'd say I've never seen anything like it, but this happens once a week with this team

First half they're the best team in the league. 3rd quarter starts off well, then 3 minutes in they brick a shot, give up a bucket, turn it over, give an and one, turn it over, give up a 3, brick a shot, foul, turn it over, get a rebound, get a two, foul, turn it over....

its the type of stuff they obviously need to cut out to take the next step.

to lose on a night that the entire lineup collectively shoots lights out is disheartening.

well, except *gasp* in the third quarter when they shot 35%

the bench is a huge issue. They need a sixth man. The turnovers make me want to break things. I should go back to not watching.

honestly, with all of the turnovers, i feel like they werent even getting enough shots off for me to notice that much of a discrepancy in the FG percentage.

I mean if you put 7 shots up that's like what 2/7? Seems about right for the 3rd quarter

Sure. But I will say the sixers going up by 20 then blowing that lead then going up by 19 then blowing that lead and losing by 10 is a microcosm of my life.
