Milbury wants to give Simmonds more minutes.

And Jonesy too. I thought more of him.
- hereticpride

I'd put him on the first line ahead of Raffl. Unless Raffl gets set up with an open net what is he really doing out there let's be real.

simmonds has done nothing over the past 20 games to deserve pp1 time. Nopa has scored like 4 pp goals since the move hes not the issue
- bulet13

Exactly. Simmonds is the worst player in the ice. He doesn't even deserve to be playing at all right now tbh.

I guess myself and Jonesy are the only people who feel Simmonds should be out there more...

Normally I would too but Simmonds has been that bad. I would take Weise at this point in all seriousness.

So you wake up in time to troll? Apparently that’s your best plan.
- bird_dog_pa

Not at all. I've seen plenty said on both threads & a lot about Sid.

Edit: This thread probably has the most about Sid. How did your best player go today - 102 regular season points didn't he? That's a good season.

can we please get tk back on the top line with g and cooter?

Milbury and Jones basically blaming the coach for Simmonds poor play. Saying he has destroyed his confidence by cutting his ice time
- Dkos

Disagree.

I dont know if he is healthy or not - but the dude looks like a zombie out there. No emotion.

Eat it Flytards. Murray early, Sid all day long.
- Sell My Monkey

Sounds like you're eating Sid's microween all day long. On. The. Reg.

Hak needs to make some real adjustments next game. Gotta get Weal back in there and Hagg. I'm tired of seeing Manning on the ice he's just not good. Also can't take as many penalties that's what did them in today.
- FreshFlyer

I don't think the coach can do much more. His best players have not shown up, and theirs have. Though I wouldn't mind seeing Hagg get in the lineup

More minutes on the first PP unit.

i dont know what simmonds you're watching cause the one out there isnt doing anything. I get you like him man i do too but hes actively hurting this team and not helping

Milbury too. You’re in good company

The adjustments that are needed to be made need to be made by the players, not the coach. The repeated blaming and scapegoating of players such as Manning is absurd and asinine. The Flyers lost today for the simple reason of their top players are a complete non factor and those same top players took absurd penalties one after the other. Inserting Weal and Hagg is not the answer. The FLyers will not win this series or any series for that matter with Giroux and Voracek complete no shows.

My only hope is for the Flyers is to be competitive this series. I didn’t expect to win but 7-0 and 5-1 losses not so much. The young guns have scored 4 of 5 goals and 4 of 4 shots on net that scored.

Giroux-Couturier-Weal
Konecny-Patrick-Voracek
Lindblom-Filppula-Simmonds
Raffl-Lehtera-Read

Ghost-Provorov
A-Mac-Sanheim
Hagg-Gudas

More minutes on the first PP unit.

Doesn't matter. Do you see ANYTHING that warrents giving him those minutes? Like seriously.

I applaud hakstol for sticking the same lineup out there game 2, but no time out after the 4th goal, not doing much to get spark out of his lines, a bit disappointing. Giroux and simmonds looked all out of sorts out there today as well. Voracek with a trade mark stupid penalty

Ridiculous. Even at Simmonds current level of play, Weise is not close.

Exactly!

Yeah probably could have beaten them. Not to be negative but it's going to be tough for the Flyers to win this series. The upside though is a lot of young guys are getting experience against the 2 time defending champs.
- FreshFlyer

Next game is a MUST win to have a chance

More minutes on the first PP unit.
- 77rams

I agree with them and I've said it all game long. He's played 12 minutes out of 60. He's the best in the business in the crease on the PP. If you don't wanna give him even strength, fine. Power Play is a different story. Murray saw everything.

Not giving up yet, but quation on FA.

I John Carlson worth a big contract for the Flyers or is it too early to get into the FA market with such a young team?

For the most part I agree, but a coach has to make some in game changes when things aren’t working out. I’m not sure Lindblom is too effective out there right now. Patrick looks like he wants to break out. If do something to give Patrick’s line more spark
