Honest question, can you name a period worse in Philly history. Sure, only 2 goals and the PP looked ok, but they couldn’t connect on a single pass. Please, history buffs- worse period?

Yeah, the period when fans were throwing the bracelets to honor Snider on the ice.

There was a tv timeout....same diff. No need to blow a timeout....they need to kill penalty to start period and start to skate....they have a better team....but you have to show it.

I absolutely 100% disagree. Having your coach halt the game to give you Sh@t is way different than an expected pause. Wasting a timeout would not be using it when your team is playing their worst period of the season.

He looks like he thought all the pirouettes and fancy plays they made in the round robin were actually going to translate to the playoffs.

Christ ....there’s been tons of worse periods....lol. I remember a game against the Sabres in the late 90s Or early 2000’s that was an elimination game and I think it was like 6-0 three minutes into the second Period...

Why do we have to watch the Colorado feed during intermission? Why can't NBC arrange for a breakdown of game a bit more in depth?

My point was there was a tv timeout in there....I’m pretty sure he tried to get his message across at that point.

You serious? Do you remember the series against NJ in 2012? Leave the first game out and pick any of the next 4.

What about the game Landros was referring to, except what I recall was the Foppa Buffalo series last game (7-1) in elimination game.

That’s more on the fans though, I thought the players were bad but not brutal

Trust 2912 NJ series was terrible. Is that the series Hextall let in the middle ice goal?
