I also liked when they asked him about the 5 to 1 loss...how did he think he played?
Brilliant question

I think the media eats it up when Bryzgalov struggles. They can go back to the well writing dumb goaltender controversy stories that they can cut and paste, instead of doing their actual jobs.

I don't think there are actual fans of the team that revel in Bryzgalov's struggles.

- PLindbergh31


I do. I see people who have twitter handles like FlyerGirl or PhlyerPhan19 openly shred Bryzgalov for his play, personality, everything. They tweet poop like, Oh Lavi's starting Bob because he wants to win...

There's a lot of idiots that think just because the editor assigned a writer to cover the team that they're hockey experts.

I really wish the team could make him not accessible to the media. I think there is an NHL rule that mandates they can't do it. I honestly think he would play better if he didn't have to deal with them.

He should hire a translator, that'd really get under their skin. I could see it now, translator giving his answer as he sits and grins at the three stooges.

I'd love it if he gave detailed answers in Russian about the works of Tolstoy to every question.

Panaccio: Bryz, you made a big glove save there on Parise, did you gain confidence from that?

Bryz: Толстой был блестящим, если немного долго наматывается. Его эпос иногда вытащить, но очень приятно, dilligent читателя.

Seravalli: I write my column in crayon

Bryz: Любой получил цианистый капсулы?

It's sad. I can only imagine what Holmgren, Laviolette, and Snider say about the media behind closed doors. I'm sure they despise them.

well Clarke didn't need to say it behind closed doors

I complain about Bryz's performance, but I hate when he doesn't play well. It hurts the team when he does. I don't understand why any Flyers fan would want him to fail. That makes zero sense to me. If he fails, it hurts the team significantly in a variety of ways.

Carchidi: Do you think you're special, Bryz? Why do you wear more pads than everyone else? You're obviously a bad teammate and kind of a Richard.

Bryz: I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean...

Carchidi: Nevermind, I got my next 4 columns. Thanks, Comrade

Since they know he speaks decent English, can he request to do interviews with a translator? Not sure, but it's a great idea. Seems like there isn't always one readily available.

Mike Richards and Ilya Bryzgalov don't like the Flyers media. Any reason behind this?

I do, too. I hate seeing either goalie fail or any player for the Flyers not playing well. Even a guy like Shelley...if he's dressing, I want him to play well.

The best thing he could do would be to correct their speech as if they were not correctly pronouncing something.

Pistachio: Bryz, there were some tough deflections out there tonight that you probably wish you would have been able to save..

Bryz: De-flect-ions (over enunciating it with his Russian accent)

Pistachio: Yes, deflections.

Bryz: No.. eets.. Def-lect-ions (enunciating it even more exaggeratedly)

Pistachio: Thats what I said.. Def-lect-ions.

Bryz.. NO! eets.. DEF-LECT-IONS!

Pistachio: DEFLECTIONS!

Bryz: (sly smile) What was your question?

Bob speaks decent English, but he speaks through a translator. He can just sit there and no say anything, too. Media is allowed access, not answers.

In instances when he can't get a translator, I'd love to see him feign language difficulty.

"I have wery good seeing tonight... I, ah, haev game oonder control... кто-нибудь пожалуйста конца моих страданий... puck is not get by goalkeep."

I would. I don't mind an incompetent media, I hate an agenda driven media. Way too much focus on banality and off-ice drama than the drama on the ice.

dont expect any moves this deadline, i think were set....

this offseason though i hope we go hard after weber to replace pronger.

not crazy about suter unless we sign him in the offseason as a ufa, i think carle is just as good if not better, and carle has the adv because hes familiar with the team.

dont trade jvr, dont trade bob, dont trade anyone.

im dreaming of pronger getting better then any trade that could go down.

I haven't seen one interview with Bob all year. I didn't even know he could speak English, figured he knew some hockey phrases in English.

In my opinion a deal has to be done. Nothing is written in stone but I feel there is something most likely to be done then not.
