Game was unwatchable up until the last 30 sec plus ot. Just atrocious. Happy for Coots and Frost tho.

Just too much redundency and boring players in this line up. Its a team of 4th liners and players with top 6 upside that just arent taking the next step. Most of their offense literally could fall into one of those 2 categories.

You really thought this team was going to tank?

They're actually able to skate with almost any team now, and they've upped their skill.
The biggest problem they have is maintaining puck possession, too many turnovers in the D-zone, have trouble controlling play in the O-zone and don't take the puck away enough.

But they went toe to toe with Vegas, the biggest team in the NHL, and with Nashville, the most physical team (Trotz is the GM, you'd expect anything different?).

The problem for the Flyers is they used to be small and slow, now they're just small.
TK had his worst game of the season b/c he was bounced around on a regular basis, Brink was MIA.
Even Poehling struggled along the boards.

Frost scored again, checks notes, hmm 2 feet from the net. Gee, maybe he's learning something?

Some good things, Michkov is looking more comfortable 5x5, Frost is skating better (I think the 5 games off helped a lot, there was something wrong with him physically), Andrae continues to play well, Risto is now in beast mode.
