Nice win... Love that AV called them out for last night and they respond with a shut out despite losing two people in game. This team will get it together.

Hope the best for Myers & Frost... Next man up.

Moose yeah! This night was so competitive. It was a big step in the right direction. Just waiting for news on the injured and Ghost. Provy and Sanheim had a very good night also.

Thanks Flyers for making my day tomorrow a little easier with a win!

You're right about being more physical. I didn't see us doing much until Konecny got physical in the first period. Got things going. Then his goal. Thanks to him.

Buffalo out shot us 40 to 30. We gave away the puck 12 times to the Sabres’ 5. This was a game that could have easily gone the other way. I’m happy with the win but the Flyers had an ugly first half where they were very much outplayed. I thought Voracek, Hayes and Braun all sucked in that first half but redeemed themself late in the game.

Have a good night sleep with the knowledge your city cannot support a non-competetive hockey team. Will you be a fan when they are in OKC?

Frost and myers needing mri doesn't sound hopeful.

G hayes bee
Lindblom Patrick tk
Jvr laughton jake (g and laughton could be inter changeable laughts had good chemistry with hayes)
Raffl bunny nak

Provy sanheim
Gus braun
Hagg friedman

Also... can I say its ridiculous that buffalo coach is campaigning now for a provorov suspension ? Saying he intentionally stuck his arm out. I dont think I can remember a coach who complains so much. Sending those videos to league office might not help him as montour for the cross check when provy was down is really the suspendable play.

Overall a much better effort from the Flyers. One thing that dawned on me last night is the Flyers have a lot of good 200 foot players, like TK, Patrick and Lindblom, but they don't have elite top end talent anymore, so they have to play this way every night to have chance to win. That means playing with high energy, skating harder, strong on the forecheck and good structure. Elliott had a strong game also which of course doesn't hurt when that structure breaks down. I loved watching TK last night, not just the highlight goal, but the little but important hockey plays he makes all over the rink, he gets my early vote for best player on this team. I also want to give a shout out to Jake V, he played a strong game, especially in his own end in the 3rd period. Very noticeable too how much he was skating. Now it would be nice if he played that way every game. I also liked his line with Giroux at center and JVR on the wing, I hope the Flyers can keep this line together because I think Giroux is much more impactful at center than wing. On the downside, I'm starting to dislike Braun, too many mistakes so far. I hope he can clean up his game; maybe they are asking too much from him.

You are so right with the turnovers, I don't care what the stats might say, I trust my eyes more than the statisticians, and my eyes tell me the Flyers turn the puck over a lot! I don't know if they keep a stat for this, but I think the Flyers have more "failed D-zone clearing attempts" than any other team in the league, at least it seems that way to me.

Haha I just read his quotes, what a moron. Guys hit people into their own goalie all the time and I’m always baffled but that one last night was the dumbest I’ve seen in a while.

According to him its the only reason they lost. And we targeted Hutton cause of his elite goaltending. Go back to Germany dude.

Meanwhile I've been wondering do we go try and shop a bit ? There's veterans still sitting without jobs or young guys like bowey? This season is a sprint and our depth is being challenged early

I’d need to see a list of who’s out there but we are taking quite a hit early.

replay of the Provorov collision with Hutton:

Ralph Krueger is either lying or dense if he's saying Provorov is at fault for anything here
