Early indications are Matt Barzal’s doing well; no issue with his eye.

Glad he’s ok but man him being out would have been nice since Couts is likely out

Hopefully he is even more ineffective than he was today.

Depending on how he wants to match up the lines if Coots can't go, I'd assume AV will go with Raffl--but wouldn't be shocked if Lindblom comes in for a boost.

If Raffl is still hurt he will not be able to play Game 6 either.

Schenn was a projected stud back then, who was underachieving. Same as JVR. Schenn was a #5 pick.

Schenn was pretty much already considered a 2nd pair guy AT BEST by the time we got him. Flyers were over a barrel after the Pronger injury and the whole league knew it.

That’s a hell of a character come back. Props to Laughton for working hard all game both at wing and center in this one. Props to Vigneault for forcing G and Jake to be the leaders of this team. They let things get away from them but they pushed back in OT and it was fun to watch.

If Couturier is out and Raffl is still hurt who goes in? Bunny?

They need to play all of Game 6 and hopefully Game 7 like it's sudden death OT.

I would assume so. I can’t see them throwing a Frost in.

This is my hope. One thing consistently said between G and Nisky were they felt they were turning corner and close to coming back, something along those lines. Both strong games and big goals. Really hope they build off this. The only one who needs to snap out of It now is TK

Not ideal but if you put him with G and Jake and that line can control the puck like they did tonight frost would be fine

Really need someone for Thompson or grant too, they just are a disaster but with Oscar, Patrick, raffle, coots possibly out, depth age stretched

They won! A bit ugly at the end of the 3rd, but a win is a win! Got it done in OT and Laughts to like—Mainly, that we scored four goals. Would like to say build, but really they need to forget and play just game 6. Just win one game. Building is over, it is sudden death. Win or go home.

G is due for more. TK and others too. Gotta score next game to win also. I believe if they believe. Let’s go Flyers!

I hate to agree with 2real but yeah, Lindblom is days away. Vigneault’s words.

Ya really....but it looks like G and Vorecek have awoken....hopefully coots isn’t that bad.
- landros 2

Niskanen was skating well too. Same with TK. All the guys on the S list played pretty well.
