I don't think he left his feet or targeted the head. Might be a tad late.

An even first period. Will take that every day of the week playing at the Joe.

Worse call on Simmonds. Apparently getting elbowed and punched a few times is now roughing.

Nothing you can do about it. Flyers need to stay out of the box and they will have a legit chance to win this game. Flyers had some nice scoring chances but they need to hit the net (to many misses).

Did not see that. If so, fine, acceptable call.

I think they called him for the little jab he threw at Franzen before they wound up in the corner. I think that was better call than the call on Rinaldo. At least Simmonds did something against the rules (by throwing that punch). I still think Rinaldo's was a clean hit.

That shot by Kronwall was a bomb. I don't think Bobrovsky even saw it. He was being screened by Betruzzi who wasn't budged an inch from the tent he pitched in the crease.

It was late, but they often let that go.

The jersey and name on back may have had something to do with that.

Don't think it would have mattered. Carle's not moving a guy that big even if he tried.

Carle was there first and let Bert park there too. Not much effort to move him.

In my opinion it was a clear cut penalty. Rinaldo is the one who has to let that go by passing up that hit. He's going to get that called against him more times then not.

Cant save what you cant see. Bob was leaning left and the puck beat him opposite side. Tough save to make there with the screen.

I think Kronwall is one of the dirtiest D men in league. His devastating hits are actually legal but people that actually play hockey and know the game know that his biggest hits are pretty dirty (even though they're considered clean).

It seems like the defense for you guys is having a rough time in front. In Saturdays game almost every goal for the Rangers was left open in the crease.

Its not even a skill thing, they dont seem to make the effort at all.
