Not really. This is a carry over from the Boston game. They got away with it in Boston.

I think what you should instead focus on is the fact that he had no power play goals last year. That’s definitely a problem I don’t care if you’re a playmaker.

True. That was one of many problems with Voracek.

His problems were not just his cap hit or one-dimensional play.

0 pp goals from a one dimensional player is bad. Really bad.

Voracek was one of the better PP point producers in the league his entire Flyers career.

Your comments are embarrassing. What have the Leafs done with Matthews?
- MJL



Make the playoffs more often than the Flyers.

Win more games than the Flyers.

Be more fun to watch.

So good he had 0 pp goals last season.

0 pp goals does play a role in the team losing and missing the playoffs.

that o-zone time with Sanheim and Risto with a couple of minutes left was just terrible hockey by Risto. 8 season vet, former number 1 pick defenseman and that was the best he could do. It was basically just Sanheim out there trying to organize the attack while also dealing with his partners ineptitude. Yikes.

The Leafs haven't done squat with Matthews. If I was to attempt to place the Leafs team failures on Matthews or any other single player, I would be embarrassing myself. Voracek had his flaws but he was also a really strong player over his Flyers career including being a dominant player on many, many occasions. To place the Flyers team failures on Voracek is absurd.

Crashing back to earth. When we don’t score 5 goals how will we do? We’ll see but tonight we lose. Got to win tight games if you’re going anywhere. Have to find a way in these type of games.

If your top line line is a minus-3 that won’t help either.

A veteran team can’t close out a period like they did in the 2nd. The puck can’t end up in the back of the net in that fashion. Back breaker

Tough bounce on that third goal against the Kitty Cats, but it should even out over the course of the season. Big road test coming up. Can’t wait to see this team when they’ve got everybody back.

Game could have gone either way. Obviously that shortie killed us. As the game progressed, I wasn't in as much doubt compared to when I watched the panthers play the islanders and the lightning. Flyers held up pretty decent.

Not until the Panthers took off the forecheck did the Flyers make any push. They were outplayed and out battled on the puck. The score was much closer than the game really was. The mistake the Panthers made on the PP leading to the Atkinson shortie made the game closer than it really was.

That's what pretty much everyone else thought also. The Flyers missed the playoffs last year because Voracek didn't score a PP goal.
