why even line up for the faceoff?

That was the most beautiful fan on a shot I've ever seen.

Danny not having a good 1st period.

that was horrendous.... briere loses a big draw, takes a dumb penalty, and that defensive faceoff was horrific

Briere 2 Flyers 0 end of 1

Tampa just lulls you to sleep.

that period was horrid. briere should sit the rest of the game. he would actually do more for the team riding the pine.

That was simply dreadful.

well ... on the bright side there's still 2 more periods to go.

at least, I'm hoping that's the bright side.

What the (frank) was that? A steaming pile of poop period against a team who's defense core is being held together by spit and glue, with a 42 year old stiff with a .880 save %.

If, and when JVR gets back, at this point he should replace Schenn. He's done absolutely nothing for two months. 1 goal in his last 19 games, and how is it possible to have 3 assists in 47 games?

Losing a defensive zone draw with 6 seconds costs them dearly. Raped at the faceoff dot in that period.

Sweet drop pass by Carle to Briere.

wow horrible period for Briere ... ... still Flyer had some chances that they didn't capitalize on .... waiting too long to shot the puck!

the good news is it's only 2-0 and it's against an ahl lineup. the bad news i don't think the team cares much about tonight's outcome

giroux looking at his hand again then stops taking faceoffs

yay

Rinaldo gets 10 minutes for taunting.

Was just praising the guy the other day about how much better he is than Carcillo.

they come out like crap an then take over a game, or come out strong then fall apart... ugh

on a side note, if you take a penalty which leads to a PP, and they score in it, you should get a minus for you +/-

wait, nullifying the stick is a penalty?
- flyerscup2011

simply not a penalty. two guys both going for the puck in open ice. they also blatantly missed an interference call before the 1st pp. it's rooney. wtf do you expect.

they are just trying to get Stamkos to 60

Flyers have apparently signed Nick Cousins. He just tweeted that he's on his way to Glens Falls

They were trying that drop pass for a while that period. It finally ended up costing them.

Schenn is a rookie but he has shown poop in the last few months as you say. Cooties is showing more.

They have given up a NHL leading 252 goals, and are playing with a minor league defense core, and an old man in goal. How does that translate to lulling an opposing team to sleep?

I'm willing to be patient with Schenn, he's shown flashes of being an effective player, but he's contributed very little the last two months.

today they seem to be playing that type (lull you to sleep) of game, and it's working.... for one period atleast
