Yep, because that is exactly what he meant when he said Carle was having a good season. Bang on!

Was just pointing out the fact the +/- isn't a indicator of a players performance. Pointing out Giroux is a -13 in 2012 means what exactly? What's the point? He's the last guy on the roster that deserves criticism.

They probably will be chanting that in the playoffs also. Their a better team then the Flyers.
- stveshdy

now they are alot of hockey left last year at this time we were a better team then boston

The Eagles system is complexed and usually takes time for rookies to step in and play right away.
- stveshdy

4-8 and 5 blown leads in the 4th quarter.... u win one of those the giants dont win the superbowl... its unacceptable from this coach

We shall see. The Flyers were heading in the opposite direction last year heading into the playoffs.

Embarrassing and shameful.

Why?

It's Sestito's hand, against black hair, black glove, and black pants. It could be just a follow through from a punch to the chops that has Prust's face in agony. I haven't read anything about hair pulling.
- hockeylover

Oh ok. Picture was a bit deceiving. Hair pulling is probably a fine, I doubt a suspension. I think Sestito is automatically suspended for the next game based on three fighting majors yesterday.

lilja is a +2 this year, also.

You could say that the criticism could start with Giroux. His recent play is exactly what has been ailing this team... not just offensively but defensively. Obviously the blam on him is minor, he still has been missing assignments, forcing plays, and missing open nets.

i believe u are correct

- Slammed81

Not the coaches fault that Avant fumbled twice and cost them the game. Not his fault that Parker jumped offsides when the other team was going to punt. Players have to be accountable and coach Reid takes all the heat for them. Whats unacceptable is not seeing how talented this team is going to be next year. They have a great owner and outstanding coaches. Reid just needs alittle more time to achieve the the big goal.

He hasn't played his best lately, but he was so good the first 35-40 games and put the team on his back. Without that, this team isn't even currently in a playoff spot.

Doubtful. Players don't usually make that kind of face after being punched.

Why?
- hereticpride

nothing wrong with hair pulling in a fight

if you are a girl.

- rockychocbill

Maybe he was just checking to see if it was a hair piece or not...

did anyone hear this... that the rangers are going after Suter my buddy just texted me this im trying to see where he saw this crap

- PLindbergh31

But that shouldn't excuse him from criticism. If anything, he should be held to a higher standard because of his progression to one of the best players in the league.

Why?
- hereticpride

If he's pulling Prust's hair, which it certainly looks like he is, you don't find that to fall outside the code?

lilja is a +2 this year, also.
- OrangeBlack27

Case in point why the statistic is generally useless, and a ton of factors beyond what an individual player can control go into a players +/- rating.

it's better than almost killing a Flyer fan, can't say the same thing about what happens in Philly
- jimbro83

actually, i have been to lots of games at both facilities and the fans in phil. are in general waaaaay better behaved.
trust me when i tell you i have never screamed "rangers suck" into anyone's ear.

They need another defenseman, Girardi will be dead by the playoffs playing 28 minutes a night.

has a Flyers fan almost died from being attacked by going to a game at MSG to the best of your knowledge?

Maybe he was just checking to see if it was a hair piece or not...
- hockeylover

Honestly, if he did that, there is no defending it. By anyone. For any reason.

Reid has been here how long??? i think he has had plenty of time

Oh ok. Picture was a bit deceiving. Hair pulling is probably a fine, I doubt a suspension. I think Sestito is automatically suspended for the next game based on three fighting majors yesterday.
- PLindbergh31

They review his case, but the suspension is not automatic
