There's no official record, because ice times only became an official stat in the last 20 years. But EJ McGuire used to track ice times internally. Mark Howe used to regularly push 35 minutes and McCrimmon wasn't far behind. Talking about 60 minute games, not OT.

He has often said that he feels like he could play the whole game. I guess we'll see tonight.

ahhhh, MZ is struggling.....5 pts for him tonight
- KINGKENZO


That would make my day, for sure.
But, it's more likely that any of your guys who don't have a goal in the NHL score tonight. And, anyone currently on a long skid will breakout.
Seems inevitable, as soon as Joe "the Mook" Micheletti says that someone hasn't scored, or hasn't scored in over a calendar year, they are pulling it out of our net. Both of these instances happened against the Devils.
I expect 2 goals for Hayes, as well.

Just hoping for an entertaining game. Good luck, guys!! Stay safe.

carrying over last blog


who of the new guys will have a standout game?

- wcorvette


Not sure who all you are considering new. Kase, I hope.

Of the vets, I think Raffl (a.k.a. Waffles) might have a great game. This is the type of game that he has surprised in the past.

That's a Philly thing, too! Teams who are on a losing skid as well as guys who haven't scored a goal on 30+ games feast on the flyers.
I didn't know you share the same pain as we do lol

What's going on with Alex laf? I didn't expect him to light it up but I expected him to be doing better then he is.
Any insight to his struggles?
And let's hope for a good game tonight!

Man, the NYR fanbase is totally up in arms over LaBusteniere!
My take is that in the first game of the season, he looked lost. But, it literally lasted one period! By the second, he was in good position, helping defend in 3 zones,...
Really looks like a pro. Then after a handful of games he started getting chances and making passes - snake bitten! Getting robbed and no luck.
Once he breaks out and gets some confidence he will be a handful for opponents. This years rookies got a 10 day camp and no exhibition play. No rookie tourney's... Most of them will take more time.
Biggest additions of ours for you guys to watch tonight are Adam Fox and K'Andre Miller!

Hope we all enjoy it somehow tonight!!

F me. (I'm actually an Eagles fan of 30 years)
I really wanted them to deal Wentz and keep Foles.
What a shambles. At least we still have a shot at the division, no matter how bad we are!!

How could I forget!

Except for the night G got his milestone instead of ovie! It's nice to break the pattern sometimes and have our boys get it!

Flyers shoulda listened to Bill and drafted Miller.

Miller looks great! He is going to be a really good addition and his potential is barely tapped. Nice draft choice!
I haven't watched fox much but I see his name mentioned often after a game and it's always for food reasons. Which makes it easy to say that it's easy to dislike new York because all of the big names want to go there to play and enjoy the spotlight lol
I'd lbe lying if I say that I'm not jealous of that.
So you have a team negative up there, too, huh?
We have plenty of those here. We actually had a portion of our fanbase who called sean couturier a busy and said he would never be more than a 3C 😂😂
I think every good team has those types of fans. Those fans usually go away when things are going well, though

Cheers to good hockey and safe wishes tonight!

No idea who you're talking about,... so sure!
Hopefully, not Justin Braun, 'cause that would be silly.

Good talk.

So, you would be that tool who pounces on anyone who comes around looking to have polite, possibly inciteful conversation, just because they are a fan of another team?
Very intelligent! You go, girl!!

Serious questions; What is the scouting report on Sushko? Saw he had 21 points (11G, 10A) in 53 games with Phantoms. Also, have we had another player from Belarus? Was Oskar Bartlouis(sp?)?
