Deal. As the only voice of conservative beliefs online atm I felt it my obligation to defend them during the mob style attacks.

Great. How do you think the Flyers should approach the deadline? How do you feel about the win last night?

Grossmann is having another bad stretch. He seemed to be turning a corner in late Jan/early Feb, but his game has gone down into a slump again. That said, having him in the playoffs when battles at the net turn games, I like having him.

I agree. Losing that battle to Johansson in front of the net yesterday really bothered me.

That being said, he will be an asset once the games begin to slow down.

Flyers go stretches where they stop battling infront of their goalie. Infuriates me.

Reports are that the Russian coach was aboard a boat that no one heard of which mysteriously has gone missing.

I thought the same thing. That was atrocious. It looked like a high school "battle" at the net...it was that easy.

Yup, he's seemed a bit off since the Olympic break, not using his body as much or getting inside position. Hopefully he's just taking a bit longer to warm up.

Well, given how big he is, it takes a little longer for the oil to run throughout the entire system. Especially with the cold weather.

Loved the comeback.

Would like to see our defense worked on.

I test the waters on b. Schenn and go from there.

I only deal if were getting the better player.

With that said.. I'm sure Holmgren is on the phone with Modrys agent as we speak.

I think beating the Bruins would be a tall task, but not impossible. We already know the Flyers can beat the Penguins in a series.
- PLindbergh31


i think that would also be a tall task. MAF was a huge reason why they were able to win...and i don't think he's going to suck in this year's playoffs. just a hunch.

The fact that we could even think its possibly true speaks volumes doesnt it

He's in there to do that exact job. Even if he needs to take a penalty, you can't let Johansson, a skilled player, get a shot from there.

Man, Modry. Felt so bad for him. I wanted to root so hard for him with what he was going through, but God he was awful.

Btw Jsaq, any reaction from you regarding the Panthers nabbing Pirri?
- Tomahawk


It's a good move for them. He's a skilled guy and they gave up middling draft picks to get him. He'll get a real chance on a line with a talented kid.

if by stop battling you mean gliding around aimlessly, out of position, no sticks on the ice and letting the opposition enter the area without so much as looking at them, then yes, i agree.
