Couturier should be untouchable. Dude played out of his mind today. He has to be one of the best defensive centers in the league. At 21. If the Flyers trade him, they will regret it.

Core forwards, for me. G, Simmer, Jake, Coots, Schenn.

I love read, but for the right price i wouldn't be broken up about letting him go.

With only 13 shots, the #Flyers match a franchise record for fewest shots in a game originally set against Washington in Dec. 1990 #NHL

Strike that--Didn't realize Couture got hurt.

(How did I miss that?)

Still--a pleasure to watch play.

the two penalties against the flyers I saw were really weird calls
the streit slash was a tap to the gloves, and the hall penalty touching the puck with a glove after the faceoff... very strange

I didn't see the slash near the end

- Marc D

The slash was retaliatory. Nothing brutal, but a penalty nonetheless.

I agree with the rest though. When's the last time someone was called for winning a draw with the glove? He was falling and his glove fell on the puck

Streits slash was ticky tack. But oh well. They pulled through

What a Bull.

Not the prettiest skater, or puck handler, but he just overwhelms you with strength, speed, and toughness.

Dominate at home, split on the road. With few exceptions, that formula gets you where you need to go.

They get a point out of San Jose, which won't be easy...a good win today and that gives them some room to breathe. Starting 0-2 on the trip...would've been less pleasant.

Watched a lot of west coast games when I was working late nights last few years. Some really good games go on out Californy-way after hours. Really wish I didn't have to teach at 8:00 a.m. this semester and could watch more.

Don't agree on Vanek being overrated. His numbers are there.

Vanek-Giroux-Voracek

have run rest of the league, of course they need dmen and not Vanek.

package it would cost for Vanek could get you a good defender.

You and I have been in his corner the whole season. So glad he is still in O&B. Might be one of the best contracts Homer has signed.

Solid win. Even more impressive considering the Kings are desperate for goals/wins and the pathetic shot count.

Big hit by Couts was nice!.

Congrats on Simmonds on 100. But he scares the crap out of me in the D zone, especially with Vinny and Schenn out there with him. They get cycled like champs.

Flyers need to trade Kimmo, Downie, Grossmann, Mez. Players that won't be back next year for pieces they can use to trade for better defenders.
Do what the Sharks did, buy and sell.

Awesome goal! Weak call though on the hit on Voracek.
