Bill Meltzer: Flyers Gameday: 10/7/17 @ ANA

Jesus look at their lineup, if they're ever going to beat the ducks tonight would be the night

Picked the right time to play the Ducks. Missing Getzlaff and Kesler, who is still a very good player and a horse to play against. Missing two top defenseman. Good opportunity for the Flyers to come out with a win.

holy cow the Ducks are already decimated with injuries.

Love me some Rickard Rakell

Random question - Does anyone else who owns NHL 18 on PS4 have it freeze randomly?

It happens to me all the time.

Perfect storm here but the question is...for which team?!

Also, just now watched Mason get pulled in his opener with the Jets, I'm routing for him and that team but 💩

Is it Big Sammy Time?

On paper, should be a win. On paper. However, no win is easy when it's the 3rd game in 4 nights on the road. With both Getzlaf and Kessler out, I think I'd rather have Sanheim in over big Sammy. I think you'll get a very good game out of Sanheim tonight and, with both big centermen out, I'm not as concerned with having more size in on D.

GO FLYERS!!

was hoping for a 2-1-1 trip. Still a tough game but they are definitely catching the ducks at a good time.

Why not have both (Sam and Travis)

Yeah, tonight's game is definitely winnable while they're missing those studs. They're still formidable and I think most of us love that "banger" style of hockey but they're beatable today.

You see that NHL Network profile on Rakell and that young lady with cancer? That was pretty awesome. It's easy to root for a lot of NHL teams when they're not playing us. Some quality guys those hockey players.

Yes, please

Of course the sounds you hear in the background are the peals of laughter from Hextall and Hak.

who would sit? and don't say AMAC cause you know that won't be the case.

Absolutely!
One of the many reasons NHL hockey is my favorite sport!

And that's why Hex and Hak are laughing. They sure as hell ain't sitting Provorov, and Gudas and AMac seem to be the veteran fixtures right now. Ghost is a lock and Hagg is getting top 4 ice time so I can't see any way, barring someone get injured at warmup, that both kids are getting in.

Maybe not freeze, but between face offs goes on an endless loop a lot. My controls won’t change to camera relative either. Worst game they’ve put out in a really long time.

it's been 1 game since giroux scored a goal will he break the drought?

He needs to play Winnipeg.

exactly. One of the two are just going to have to bide their time hopefully in the AHL so they get playing time. Honestly I feel like Morin should be in. 2 years in the AHL, does he really need more time?

I still want Sammy in the line up tonight. That douche bag Perry is playing, I hate him and want to see some random 6'7" D-Man (frank)ing rag doll him. Did you see the poop storm he started against the Yotes?
Ok, end rant. Let it be so!

As long as it ain't Manning, I'll be smiling!

Good game for Hagg to step up and assert himself.

Just following up on your late comment in the earlier blog, I think Hagg will stand out more and make more noticeable nice plays on offense, defense and physically. Keep watching and we'll see what happens.

Before Thanksgiving, I think Hagg and Patrick too will look obviously better than they are now. That's not exactly going out on a limb but it should be fun to watch.
