My one period over reaction. These moves with the exception of Prosser look horrible by AV. The pp we got lucky on with sanheim in the box we trotted out provy braun and ghost Prosser. Gus is horrendous. Still is. Shows zero signs of improvement. Braun has been meh again. Ghost is exactly what he is high risk high reward. Would of liked us to challenge more at the line on the goal but hart also too far in his net. Overall the D is getting caved in. Provy ghost seem to be the only ones getting it up ice.

If its me for next game if the next 2 periods go like the first im going.
Provy Ghost
Sanheim Braun
Hagg Prosser

Just waive gus, seriously.

Really have to be wondering what Fletcher was thinking with Gustafsson.

Flyers need to play their system, they are going out like the Devils are not going to be a challenge, flying the zone, drop passes, the cute stuff. Grind this out and control the play

Terrible period. Flyers are giving up the blueline easily. Once the puck is in there, the Flyers are standing still and are flat footed.

Al is so much better than Hartsy...

I hate Morganti the whiner, but I have to agree. You're right. Hartsy looks like a cardboard caricature of himself

This isn't just on the defense. The forwards are not working in the neutral zone and are not helping out enough and winning battles and puck races. Haag was brutal last game and Friedman has not played well The coach is just looking for a lineup that might work.

THAT is the problem. When a coach is just trying to find a line up that just works, you know you're in trouble. This team is just simply not working hard and grinding a game out. It's almost like they've bought into their own press about how good they should be. Well, maybe a little medicine might be good for them.

I get it. And I agree. Hagg braun pairing was brutal. Braun corsi was freakin 18. But braun the consumate veteran has more leash. But Gus just doesn't belong on this team. Not with the breakdowns. And yeah this is very hard to watch. We keep hearing about Hart and yeah hes not been the A+ we expect but hes far from our biggest problem. Even with Myers back this weekend its seeming like we only have 4 nhl defenseman and a lazy forward group. Its really mind blowing when you consider what they did last year.

I swear most fast breaks we don’t even get a damn shot off. It’s so frustrating

We tend to over pass. If tk either decides to protect the puck and get the backhand off or dig in and drive to the net, I bet that works out better
