Post-Game Talk: #41: Bruins at Flyers, Wednesday, January 13, 2016

[Striiker]

NBCSN is going full Gary right now. Both Milburn and Pierre lobbying for a fighting ban.

Milbury is the last person I'd expect to want fighting gone.

 

[Beef Invictus]

You really have to wonder what Milbury's problem with Mason is. How can you just dislike a player that much for no apparent reason?

It's downright unprofessional to be that dishonest.

 

[TCTC]

It's downright unprofessional to be that dishonest.

It really is. But he obviously doesn't care.

 

[blinds]

Milbury is the last person I'd expect to want fighting gone.

This is true, and while I don't really agree about removing fighting (or with nearly anything he says), I gotta say I respect him for lobbying against a part of the game he clearly loves for the sake of players' health.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Milbury is the last person I'd expect to want fighting gone.

He's been on that boat for a while now. I can't remember exactly what incident sent him over but I remember him going on a tirade about it earlier in the year.

He did however lobby for more shoe beatings though.

 

[Juicy Pop]

They're paying him to be Skip Bayless.

Idiot who says idiotic/inflammatory things to attract viewers who will get mad/poke fun at the idiot.

ManDog!!!!!!

That's pretty much how it is now a days with tv. You set up one guy who says edgy stuff (Milbury) with another guy who's level headed (Jones) so it's not too much over the top.

But sometimes you just go for it all & let two idiots run wild like ESPN does with Skip & Stephen A.

True I guess but you won't see Skip Bayless on Monday Night Football preview spewing this ********.

Imagine the NFL/NBA/MLB having analysts during preview or halftime like Milbury. it's ****ing bush league. WTF is NBC thinking?

He's basically the US' version of Don Cherry. He's there just to piss people off.

The game could use some more shoe beatings.

 

[Rebels57]

I. ****ing. Hate. Milbury & Maguire.

So much.

 

[Rebels57]

Awesome win!

The captains all stepped up.

Couturier and Bergeron cancelled each other out unsurprisingly lol.

Mason was outstanding. He is looking like the Mase from last year. Really working hard, fighting for sight lines, etc.

VandeVelde is butt.

The PP has hit rock bottom.

It needs Ghost back in a hurry.

Very satisfiying night..I won my first mens league game of the season 7-6, and even pulled a Giroux..won a faceoff forward and ripped if 5 hole while getting tripped

 

[CodyTheHuman]

**** yes.

The top line played amazing. G's slump dies with a 3 point night.

G needs more 3 point nights. Like 20 more. That'd be nice. (My Art Ross dream is alive and well)

Now if Couts line can continue to stay rolling. Team will be better down the stretch. Gotta get Ghost back.

If those two lines can stay rolling and putting up points we'll be dangerous.

 

[Tripod]

Having last change, and having Couts shutdown Bergeron, as opposed to Bergeron shut down Giroux, was huge for us.

In Boston, they likely put Bergeron out against G.

Also glad Zac didn't score on the 2-1!

There's no question they miss their number one center for reasons like this. They are a declining team either way. Glad we got the win. Have to think that we may get a great boost from this and get some win in the upcoming tough games. Great effort tonight.

I only saw the highlights but it seemed like Rinaldo and Talbot had about fourteen 2 on 1s. What gives?

And I saw Schenn's fight; he was really throwing them. Was that the only fight he hasn't lost?

Schenn was showing good technique with the rapid-fire jabs, then tossed a few serious fastballs before he fell.

Yeah, he looked good in that bout. I still have memories of him being tossed around by Kovalchuk.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

another solid team win against a good hockey club.
good to see the top line stepping up.
Stone Mase.

Big test this weekend with the Rangers and Redwings.

 

[Laveuglette]

With half of the season left, we have a great chance at making the playoffs. Really hope we do. These guys need confidence and experience. We won't contend this year, but it's the first step, and a good sign. We will be even better next year and we could contend very soon. Can't wait to see a great Flyers team again.

Thought it was Rangers/Red Wings this weekend?

 

[tade]

Huge ****ing win!!!! Well done, boys. We are playing a real good hockey right now. But Eastern Conf is so damn tight this year.

 

[chupanibre]

Couldn't watch this one but veryyy happy about the result. Looks like the 1st line and Mase put up a great show.

How was Remaldo's reception?

 

[Patrick Division]

Suck it Milbury!

HAhaha!!! I Love you guy's!!!

I fell asleep and just finished watching...

4 in a row!!!

Top line looked great. Winning without Ghost!! Feeling great today!!!

Edit: Oh yeah...Mason!!! ****ing Stud!!!!
