It's either that, or the players aren't listening/doing what they're told. I find it hard to believe that every set of PKers they've used in the past 3 years are intentionally not doing what they're told.

The how do you explain the slow starts to games and lazy backchecking over the last 3 coaches.

This is exactly how I acted after Kane scored in OT in 2010.

You're correct. The coaches are telling the players to sit back, take it easy and give the opposition plenty of space.

I thought you couldn't hear the coaches when sitting behind the glass!?

Apparently it was a Provorov shot off his foot. He briefly came back on the ice then went right back to the locker room.

Friedman in his 31 thoughts column mentioned we’ve been in discussion with the Flames and have shown interest in Benett

Get the injuries out of the way early in the season. They will be fresher at the end right?

That's all I got.

I dont find it hard to believe at all that the Flyers PK issues are due to execution issues.

No its personnel Lappy sucks. PK has sucked ever since he started running it. He was a great PKer himself but that doesnt translate to teaching.

Thankfully the snot and balls remain though.

I chuckled a bit when Bill mentioned that POS passive box approach they have constantly used under Lappy’s tenure.

Has anyone noticed how much more organized and effective PP2 has looked since the addition of Sanhiem?

I'm just a fan though. I know nothing.

The PK sucks, just as it has the last few years under this coach. How can anyone possibly see that coming? Hextall must feel blindsided.

He must also feel blindsided by the lack of backchecking under 3 head coaches...

No. I have noticed MacDonald playing really badly, though.
