Few plays embody the Flyers than the 2 scenarios where Michkov had the puck in the corner and not a single Flyer made himself a pass option.

Are you insinuating our lord and savior God King Torts, and his side kick Rocky "genius" Thompson don't have it all figured out??? The worst powerplay in the NHL for 3 years doesn't mean anything, it's not his fault!

That’s after they give Cates $40,000,000 :laugh:

I am sure I will read about how goaltending is the woe and they'll be for sure an average team with good goaltending, but they scored two. Two. You don't win often scoring only two.
oh u def. gunna read how its Harts fault..

in 3...2...1

If they can ruin a guy like Michkov, they will obliterate Hagens.
hopefully the kid would be smart enuf to no-show...

Diss Cates all you want, but his line is heads and shoulders above any other line since they were put together. And they're playing the toughest minutes, Vegas matched their first D-pair and Eichel against them.

The problem is finding another line, Frost-Michkov weren't as good as in San Jose, Poehling just can't carry a real line, but neither can Couts these days.

Kolosov gave up two bad goals (the wrap around and the one off his glove on a clean shot).

xGF 60.05%, HDCF 51.76%, like in LA, play a good team even or better on their home ice, and watch your goalie waste your hard work.

The temptation to trade for a center and a goalie, given all those assets, must be almost unbearable, the advisors are probably gnashing their teeth.

If you put an average 1C on this team they’d still lose against top teams, they’re nowhere near competing for a cup.

Well we need to keep the Russians in net...A) They need the experience B) so we have a good chance at a top 3 pick..... That and Michkov, Foerster and Drysdale development are the only thing that matters imo
It's been said several times. Kolosov is Belarusian not Russian.

Fell in and out of sleep for the 1st which seemed like a good road period. Woke up and not surprised to see they lost the game

How have the Flyers been doing since that Cates line has been put together?

Oh thats right... terrible.

Funny how making any line up decisions specifically for Michkovs benefit is "bad for the team" but we will sacrifice the season to keep Cates hot!

Torts has his favorites and thats that. If your name isnt Cates, Seeler, or Hathaway youre SOL.

They scored 2 goals! Count em' 1-2, That's 2. They can't score and they're playing hands of stone, Ryan Poehling the most minutes out of any Flyer forward at 5 on 5. Add in the combination of bad goaltending and soft coverage and what do you have? The coach is a buffoon.
