Post-Game Talk: #65: FLYERS 5 at Rangers 3, Sunday, Mar. 1, 2020, 12:00 pm ET

Ooof, Provy with over ten minutes of special teams time (leading both in PP and PK mins). In all situations, averaged over a minute per shift, with only one other player averaging over 45 seconds per shift (and that was Niskanen, his partner). Then again, Deangelo got over 27 mins and also averaged 1:02 per, so

Tater Thomps played more than both Raffl and NAK despite taking the two minors.

That's basically the life I live now. I didn't ask for this life, I am just doing it for the greater good.

Pic Cropped

I did it all for the Cookie.

Jake said moving back to their old positions on the power play is what got that unit going.

I mean.... both him and Giroux (who is usually very reserved with media) have both spoken about being comfortable on off wings.

And when PP was set up opposite way both did a 5 min show at the end of every single pre game where they fed each other one timers in their Pp spots.

Great 2 points!

Ugly game from us in ES. Thank to special teams.
And to Hart. Hart was huge.

BENCH THOMPSON FOR NEXT GAME ASAP!!

Luckily this is exactly what a cup winning team does, find a way to win. You can’t win every game and be playing great but if your special teams can boost you through that it’s lethal

I'm a cookie fiend too. That's why I had to stop.

 

[Amorgus]

Someone made an oopsie and posted on the wrong board.

 

[Striiker]

Hahaha Jake essentially just called Therrien a idiot.

Reminder:

I'm really not even a cookie fiend. Don't even have them often.

@Starat327 posted a victory cookie so I did the same and the doggo was in the background and off we went. Now i'm fully stocked though.

 

[Tripod]

G Couts Jake
JVR Hayes TK
Farabee Laughton Pitlick
Raffl Grant NAK

Give it a try at some point.

Don't fall into the trap man. One cookie leads to another and another and another. Then you're all out so you get a new box.

Thompson is not coming out of the lineup so get over it armchair coaches

 

[flyerslducks]

hagg gets hit in the helmet more than anyone lol

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Someone need an avatar?

at this point its only because they want raffl and laughton on the wing. Thompson is so useless lol

I see this guy going to work. I usually slip him a dollar.

I'm still waiting for you to write up that tactical piece on the evolution of Chip Kelly's approach to Inside Zone. I'm beginning to lose hope.

Lol! Why would I defend Chip Kelly? I said that his tactics didn't work in the NFL due to skinnier hash marks taking away the long side and speed of the LBers.

 

[kudymen]

Getting called "armachair coach" by an armchair GM who wanted to move Giroux in 2014 already is beyond hilarious

 

[kudymen]

Shhhh

Exactly what I remembered

 

[Appleyard]

Not really. He at least had tangible value on the PK & shooting prior to coming here unlike Thompson.

I still think going forward he slots better on the fourth line.

And he has always scored at low end 2nd line level 5v5... and the two years prior to this his possesion stats have been "okayish" given usage and team.

Thank you for clarifying what incorrect statement you made about Linebackerers, as I had forgotten. The offer will stand in perpetuity.

 

[Rich Nixon]

Anyway, despite the rough third period, solid win and good to see them keep rolling. We're all a part of this excellent hockey team, so we've all earned this photo of my dog back when she was a puppy in Nashville:

 

[flyerslducks]

I just hope Provorov in playoffs will be that Provorov from first half of this season.

I don't like his game now last games...

i think he will. Tough assignment with ziba and panarin. Those guys are studs.
