yeah, I thought the 2nd would be rough and tumble after the way the 1st ended.

Bryz is playing well ... it's just a matter of can we get a couple on Niemi tonight.

- FlyerGuy

The Flyers haven't really threatened that much. Niemi hasn't had to do much.

Dude! I know we have 4 games in hand but when the hell did OTT pass us in the standings? 7-2-1 in their last 10? Damn Turris! Makes JVRs struggles this year even more difficult to take.

Depends...chance for what?

Scoring? No.

Turnovers? Several beauties. Some real gems there.

Look for the positive.

Haterade drinken punks. Their offensive zone puck possession has looked good. They are still very much in this game.

6am wake up really sucks. I might as well just stay up ... I'm already half committed.

keys to the 3rd

1. break out of own end with smart passes

2. get traffic and crash the net

3. dont give up a goal

They are certainly capable of winning. So far, even with the increase in o-zone time, they are not generating any quality scoring chances. Passing is still off, still too much weak one-hand-on-the-stick crap, and not winning enough board battles, and too many turnovers.

That's a lot to fix in one period. Especially when the give up 2 on 1's like that. Oy.
