GDT: ECQF 4 | FLYERS (A) vs. Canadiens (H) | Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2020 | 3:00 pm ET | Flyers lead series 2-1

[Amorgus]

The important thing so far is that was a legit goal and not a freak bounce off a player like last game. Still can't believe it was Raffl!

 

[Rebels57]

we have a new top line
View attachment 362013

Once again I thought the line with Laughton on it looked the worst.

He is like Jekyll & Hyde - sell high this summer

 

[Here4ThaLids]

I counted four entries in that period where Hayes stopped skating at the blue line. I mean, absolutely stopped and glided in, no skate movement, straight legs, no bend in the knees. One was on a 2-on-1, one was on a 3-on-2.

Spritz him with the water bottle until he learns.

 

[BiggE]

I'm gonna go make some Earl Grey, hot.

Make it so

 

[flyerslducks]

i thought provorov-niskanen was a bit better

I didnt think any line looked bad to be fair, G looked great out there and the Couts line was awesome,

 

[Rebels57]

This is a very, very poorly played series by both teams so far. Flyers look slow and uninterested, and MTL looks like a team that wouldn't have made the playoffs during a regular year

I wouldn't go that far, but I don't think either team is prepared for the 2nd round after this one

 

[Amorgus]

Stupid work means I can't bitch with everyone as much during the game.

 

[Striiker]

These stupid f***s are whining about Giroux not scoring goals between periods WHILE HES PLAYING WITH TWO 4TH LINERS

 

[Beef Invictus]

That kick from Raffl to spark Couturier is so f***ing good I can't handle it.

he did that on a back check too.

 

[Rebels57]

i thought provorov-niskanen was a bit better

Each had nearly costly turnovers - wasn't a great period for them IMO

Sanheim Myers are just incredible though

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Kelly-Clarke-Leach did work well for a shift in Buffalo back in 75

And Bobby Clarke- Dave Schultz had some memorable moments.

The series clinching goal against Atlanta Flames in OT. Clarke found an open Schultz.

Arguably the second most important goal in team history in 1974, Game 2 at Boston came with a line of Bill Flett-Schultz-Clarke. That pass by Schultz!

 

[BiggE]

Sanheim/Myers were very good
Coots and Jake, along with Raffl and Pitlick had a strong period too.

 

[BritainStix]

So much better for the flyers. They actually look like a hockey team right now.

Laughton has been brutal however. What the hell is going on with him?

 

[tictactoe]

we are much better on faceoffs so far in this game..
Danault is not killing us in 1st period.

Nobody reads newspapers anymore so we can’t have someone swat him with that...

He's considerate of Grant's xGF

 

[Striiker]

Bunnaman babysitting Thompson through the middle.

Giroux babysitting Grant...

There’s no way that’s what the intention was.

Hak doesn’t realize those two need to be babysat. If he did, they wouldn’t be in. He thinks he’s putting together great lines.

 

[Sombastate]

Stupid work means I can't bitch with everyone as much during the game.

Must be terrible for your mental health

 

[Chinatown88]

I've moved on to an apple to make myself feel less guilty about inhaling chips.

 

[Rebels57]

I didnt think any line looked bad to be fair, G looked great out there and the Couts line was awesome,

Grant looked better than he has all series next to G, but Laughton is dragging them down. I'd consider him for 4C or benching for JVR if his 2nd and 3rd are the same lackluster bullshit.

 

[BritainStix]

Myers needs to learn how to defend against smaller players on the half wall. He got owned by Gally again!

 

[Striiker]

f*** this I’m getting ice cream

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Oh f*** you and f*** your conversation. Who is even going to do it, Cesar Millan? Get f***ed.
