I've been looking forward to this more than I probably should be as a "responsible" adult. Ready to see those sweet jerseys in action. e: I feel I should mention the last time they wore these jerseys, I was 1. So it's like I'm seeing them for the first time, in a sense.

Calling Pens' standard second period listlessness/meltdown where Flyers make up most or all the lost ground.

Downie really whiffed on that hit

Read, Bellemare, Akeson, and Raffl all undrafted. Whoever is doing that extra-curricular talent scouting for the Flyers really ought to get a raise.

To take a positive away from an arguable call, nice to see Despres making use of his frame at least

toxicsunset posted:why did sundqvist and kapanen get sent off what did they have to lose by letting them play instead of zach sill or steve downie or spaling (i dont care if he scored he still sucks) or loving craig "why am i in the nhl" adams Sundqvist I'll give you but Kapanen was like 150lbs and would be murdered playing in the NHL

Abner Assington posted:Paul Martin is cool. I like him. I just wish, like Fleury, that I never had to see him play behind the net because he is really bad along the boards. I guess that's a small gripe.

Vicas posted:I think if you replaced Luke Schenn with an actual puff of air and put MacDonald in that 3rd pairing slot he'd be pretty decent Lest we forget that contract, though. I'd say worse than Scuderi's but not quite as bad as Clarkson's.

achillesforever6 posted:Hornqvist is playing really well with Crosby If nothing else, might be time throw Spaling - Malkin - Downie/whoever together and see if he can't pull another year like when he was shackled with Fedotenko and the corpse of Miro Satan. If nothing else it'd be a dangerous enough line that there'd be 3 lines to match against rather than 2. e: Satan was cool. No offense to him as a player. Fedotenko kinda sucked. Dear god we need another winger. And a goalie.

We need to hire Brodeur to teach Fleury how to play the goddamned puck. Or to take over for MAF, because I am not convinced he would be worse.

Pornographic Memory posted:It's like fleury doesn't want a new contract. If the pens don't renew him who else is gonna take him? I wish we'd taken a shot at Halak/Fasth/maybe Miller last summer. Really anyone at this point. MAF is a loving train wreck.

So the Pens have been phoning it in since the second half of the first period... I pray we never meet the Flyers in the playoffs ever again if this is how they're gonna play against them. This is embarrassing.
