They need a Bojangles parking lot to redirect their anger.

Up north they do that at the Wawa.

Here ya go:
Time stamps from games in progress.

Honestly, we absolutely have to get him someone or I would almost expect him to walk in FA. He needs help, and if we can't give him some, he could go out and find a team who would.

I understand that we probably had no package that could match up to Huberdeau/Weegar last summer, but it’s hard not to think about what Tkachuk and Aho could’ve done this year and the next 7 to follow.

 

[The Faulker 27]

We need to get someone for Aho to cook with next year, no ifs ands or buts. This kid is a bonafide 100 pt player and the ghost of Teuvo Teravainen and sophomore slumping Jarvis should be ashamed. of their efforts all year.

Does this statement bring back memories of the E Staal days or what.

I think we might have seen the beginning of getting Aho someone tonight.

Martinook.

I remember going to watch the open session training camp during the half season and really feeling good about Tlusty and Semin with E Staalo. Pretty sure I might’ve uttered the words elite 2C regarding Jordan a few times back then as well. Nothing can hurt you if you lived through 2010’s Carolina hockey.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Yep. He would absolutely want to get the f*** away from this terrible *checks notes* team that has been the second best team in the NHL for months behind only the historically good record setting Bruins.

I mean, sure, he could use some help. But come on.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Martinook.

If numbers don't lie then 1st line Martinook equals hat-trick Aho. I don't make the rules.

 

[Borsig]

Aho necas guts the second line..

Kk Jarvis pool idk

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

The problem without Svech is that the 1st line needs a physical player that gets in on the forecheck, mucks it up and creates space. Without Svech, that leaves only Martinook or Noesen as options, neither ideal, but those two are the only real options.

I agree, that taking Necas off the 2nd line creates problems, but if TT isn't going to be on Aho's line, I think a 2nd line of TT-KK-Jarvis could be ok.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Right now is one of the few times and situations that I will not complain about 1st line Martinook. Brind'Amour has to hold the fort together with the Svech injury, and maybe some added size to the Aho line stems the bleeding a bit.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

M1 magic number is 24.

Playoff magic number is 5

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Yeah, that one stings. Especially considering that all signs pointed to Carolina being the favorite until Florida jumped in at, quite literally, the last minute.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I've never fretted about 1st line Martinook as much as most. I'm just happy they tried some different stuff though the circumstances leading to it aren't ideal.

Pool necas aho idk.

Whatever

Pool had a couple decent plays but he looks slow in the head or something

 

[surfzone365]

Yep, they've accepted it. Kind of like we did, for 10 years, only they, as a fan base are generally angrier.

How many "free beers" would one get in Philly today wearing Canes jersey, an Astros hat (on backwards) and a Chiefs scarf?

 

[3CanesInTheBox]

Not trying to get ahead of myself but this really feels like a night we could look back on if we take the division and make a run.

Also,

While we can really never compare a regular season ending to a Stanley Cup clinching goal, this is right up there with Patrick Kane’s Game 6 GWG in 2010 in terms of ripping the hearts out of Flyers fans in their house. This game’s ending will certainly crack the top Caniac all time highlights.

Kind of like the miracle at Molson a little. But this is like the 4th time we've done something similar. Except this one is a blown lead not a come from behind

Rags just decimated the pens. In another life I'd laugh, but ar this point I loathe everything rags

Yeah, and to not diminish the meaning of it, this is the type of spark we can seize upon to get us out of this quasi-funk we've been in. The Flyers arent the Bruins but being able to pull a "W" from the jaws of defeat against any team - and on the road - can have seismic impacts going forward. Thinking short-term, this is what we needed after last night in Toronto.

I'd agree more if they weren't like 27th worst in the league or something

Fair enough, but this is one of those "we'll take anything we can get" nights. With an NJ loss we have slightly more breathing room in the division. All in all, not too shabby.

 

[Stickpucker]

DeAngelo again!

Sam Gagner once walked Tony DeAngelo 8 times in a game.

Regarding the "quasi-funk"

Last 10 games; 6-4-0

NJ: 5-3-2
NY: 7-2-1
BOS: 7-3-0
TOR: 6-3-1
TBL. 5-3-2

don't get me wrong, the team isn't playing as well as they were playing when they were 9-1-0, but all teams are playing at a similar winning % now. It's the dog days and I think all teams are dealing with it.

Couple of notes.

I like how ESPN clock started before the puck dropped. Good job, ESPN.

I used to, not hate but really not like that song. I was 9 when Titanic (and that song) came out, and my God that damn song was everywhere. Now? Maybe its 90s nostalgia but I've grown to appreciate the song. Celine Dion was gifted with an incredible voice.
