I believe the matchup could determine that outcome.

Hard to have "faith" in this team currently bc they are struggling since the ASB. They are having issues beating the teams that are currently in the playoffs (East). Only thing to do is continue to work hard and play team hockey.

The only way to fix it is to change the goalie

Isaih I am in no way defending his performance today. He was terrible today. But don't sit here and act like he's been the thing holding this team back, he's not. I see him ripped when he gets a shutout so Honestly I can't take anyone's criticism other than sheer bias against the guy.

He squandered away his grace period in November I guess. Season isn't over yet. Bryz could still catch lighting in a bottle at the right time (read: down the stretch and through the postseason). Hell Dwayne Roloson caught it last year so anything is possible. But damn, my man needs to start making like Ben Franklin with the kite pretty quick here. Hell I don't care if it is him or Bob. One of them needs to get hot like yesterday.

"Can't pin it all on the goaltending (Bobrovsky was little better than Bryzgalov) but all the soft goals cut the team's heart out of them."

pretty much sums it up, thank you.

We are tough, however, if he would focus and play like we know he can, might be able to sneak a cup and he would be a legend here. It's really up to Bryz. He wanted the money. He wanted to be out of Phoenix and come to a "hockey town". Well now it's time to step up. Stop pissing in my lucky charms. I love my cereal.

Wow, what an embarrassing effort by Bryz. Lavi is gonna have to make a decision soon before he loses the players here.

What decision? Bob has been just as bad since the ASB. If he was outdueling Bryz it would be an easy decision but I dont see the upgrade if Bob is in net. You have to keep playing Bryzgalov imo.

GID. Cant stand Bryz and his contract. But I also would not mind a trade bringing Bernier and Johnson to Philly... Hmmm

Yep. He is paid like a #1, so he will be played like one. Bryz just had a really bad game. He is know for putting together 3 or more solid games after days like today. Don't worry, by Tuesday night at 9:45 we will all be reading how Carle should be gone by Thursday.

Or perhaps a better team effort some too. Soft goals made the team give up, but 2 SH goals, especially 5 on 3, should never have happened. Talking to you Giroux!
- Deasr1

That one that got by Kimmo and he just looked like he skated as slower than Shelley... Yeah I think that is Kimmos fault

I love Quick. He was a blast to watch when he played for the Reading Royals. Great goalie but he would cost alot more than Bernier don't you think?

I dont know what else the Flyers can do to change whats going on. Lavi obviously works on their weaknesses and they have the talent to play well. They just need more consistency from everyone on the team. Everything needs to get better from the net out.

You have the right to your opinion but I still think Bryzgalov gives you the best chance to win with what you currently have on your roster. He has to play much better (that is obvious).

- Richieattack18

I try not to think, but, no I don't. Bernier is younger with more up side and makes less money. Quick is an allstar however, it wouldn't matter if Roy was in his prime. this team needs to sit in time out. JJ and quick for Bryz MAB and 3rd. My dream, but never happen. I don't want to give up on him yet. I'll wait till next year at this time to reserve judgement. We almost traded Gags for thomas 2 years ago when we all said he was washed up. So...I'll wait. Go Bryz.

Looking at the highlights, it just looked like the horrid goaltending was the problem in this one. When you get that bad of goaltending, your team loses confidence.

Gags for Thomas... would have been better than Gags for Walker..
