"Whooah, we're half way there"

[LuGBuG]

Shove it down their throats Cutter

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Cutter time

 

[FiveHoleTickler]

Classy as they come.

 

[Static]

 

[FlyingV09]

Still no Terry?

Nevermind I see he’s still back in ANA. Congrats to the Terry family!

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Was really hoping Cutter would be having a better year, for a lot of reasons including the very petty ones involving flyers fans. And it’s no consolation to me that Jamie isn’t doing well because I like him.

But anyway I hope he scores in their faces tonight.

 

[Terry Yake]

i'm not going to lose hope in gauthier considering who his linemates have been this season. and he continues to get plenty of chances. just needs to finish them

would be amazing if he scored one tonight

 

[lwvs84]

I'm not too worried about Gauthier. He's looked more dangerous but a little less productive than I thought going into the season. I also didn't think he'd spend that much time on lines without other higher end players (when he wasn't playing with Carlsson/Zegras/McTavish/Terry) and that he'd get more PP time. Before he broke out, I said Terry looked dangerous... he knew everything up until that last step to get the puck into the net (one more move, shoot quicker, pass... whatever the last decision was). Cutter and Carlsson a little behind that step but are significant younger than Terry was at the time and have their moments of looking dangerous. As they get older, stronger, more confident, and learn those last couple of steps (what they should do, what they can and can't do against NHL competition), those pucks will start going into the net. The question is how many points they'll put up, but if they'll be NHL players at this point.

 

[Mr Rogers]

I think Cutters had a nice season. He’s looked better than Carlsson/McT/Zegs. He has a lot of good shifts whereas those guys just haven’t been nearly as consistent shift-to-shift.

We’re a very low scoring team so everybody is gonna have their stats depressed, even guys playing well (Terry would put up big numbers on a good team)

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

Hoping Cutter and Jamie both get hattys.

 

[GiveYouABagOfPucks]

Hoping for a strong start tonight Ducks! Bring some jam.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Hoping Cutter and Jamie both get hattys.

If we score 3 goals, that usually means a notch in the win column for us. I'll take a Cutter and Drysdale getting hatties while we earn 2 points! That's a quadruple win b/c we leave the Flyers fans with a loss.

 

[Kalv]

Crazy roadtrip. First vs Fowler now vs Jamie.

Anyway... Gritty vs Johnston, make it happen

 

[MCB]

I really hope we win this one for cutter

 

[91Fedorov]

Crazy roadtrip. First vs Fowler now vs Jamie.

Anyway... Gritty vs Johnston, make it happen

This is one game that I hope we dress Johnston.

 

[Terry Yake]

This is one game that I hope we dress Johnston.

so he can not fight and take stupid penalties?

only way i'd dress him is if philly plays deslauriers

 

[HanSolo]

Cutter's one of our better looking young skaters, I don't really have concerns with him. Not everyone walks into the league as a consistent finisher. He'll be fine. He's playing the NHL game the right way this past month or so. That was the biggest concern at the start of the year, that he just looked lost and ineffective. I'll take the improvement as it is now.

 

[HanSolo]

This is one game that I hope we dress Johnston.

Why? So he can watch one Flyer take a run at Cutter and throw down with a different player in a staged fight off a faceoff?

 

[Emerald Duck]

I still think Cutter would benefit from 5-10 games down in SD. I'm not sure that he benefits by just grinding it out at the NHL level for the season. A goal scorer needs to score goals. Let him regain some confidence in his shot and beat AHL level goalies (many of whom are NHL caliber but without a roster spot atm).

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Why? So he can watch one Flyer take a run at Cutter and throw down with a different player in a staged fight off a faceoff?

Send a Ducks fan to fight one of their fans, same result.

I personally choose

 

[duckaroosky]

I'm sure this will be a perfectly normal game with perfectly normal reactions from the fans.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Being traded for gibson as we speak

LETS GO

 

[HanSolo]

I'm sure this will be a perfectly normal game with perfectly normal reactions from the fans.

My Philly fan buddy's brother traveled to Philly just to boo Cutter lol.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

My Philly fan buddy's brother traveled to Philly just to boo Cutter lol.
