Comes with the territory leaning on an old goalie coming off a core muscle injury. Would be shocking if he didn’t get hurt again.

Flyers might as well trade for Shea Weber if they are only going to try to score from point shots, their whole offense revolves around getting the damn puck to the point.

We are just sitting back and coasting.

I personally enjoy how they get it close to the net, and then forcefully pass it back away from the net to try some wild point shot.

A wraparound attempt. Who knew?

MJL can you explain why firing away from the point is a better offensive strategy then trying to get shots off from the slot or the circles?

This is one of those games where Lavi would've sent out a line to stir some poop up to make something happen, good or bad. They just seem content to keep trying to pound a square peg in a round hole.

I love how they always dump the puck to the side with 1 Flyer going down the wing

I know there is glass, but imagine being the fan sitting there with Simmons’s coming to swing the stick at you.

The worst thing that could have happened, was playing those poopty west coast clubs and G playing at a superhuman level.

264 and counting. Burn you (frank)ing piece of poop. Burn.

Because there is no one open in the slot or dangerous scoring areas.

Well the good news is there should be news prior to the Lightning game, no way this continues the way it is.

Then you have Elliott making HUGE saves and getting rewarded with ZERO. Maybe the players lost confidence in him making saves.
