Post-Game Talk: flies

Nobody:

Kevin Hayes:

Hayes was so cranky being on a terrible team getting their doors blown off for 60-plus minutes. Hart didn't want to talk to anyone either, eh?

Gauthier almost ended that guy. That was funny. "I'm your huckleberry".

 

[TGWL]

At this point Hajek is better. I love Trouba's physicality but he is not a top 6 on this team.

 

[Alluckks]

Kakko has been consistently very good at takeaways in the offensive zone, he is probably the best player at it on the team

 

[EdJovanovski]

Panarin has 10 PIM in 11 games lol
He had 18 last season and 6 the season before that

Darth Gauthier

That Philly player is like: ''Yes, choke me harder daddy!''.

MmmmHmmmm....

It’s like EA NHL, if you turn your team’s aggressiveness up, you take more penalties. He’s trying to cause turnovers a bit too much and has gotten called for hooks and holds.

Last night was different though, he was reacting to some minor interference against him (never called), and if he’d kept his hands lower he likely wouldn’t have been called for it.

Lmao, the better Kakko plays the colder this rumor gets. Kakko is UNTOUCHABLE.

That would be Kane and Chicago’s unprotected first this year and another first from Chicago to some other team to double the retention.

Please take Trouba off PP2. Kakko would be much better

He wasn’t on PP2

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Kakko should one of our go to guys in OT. He's a possession monster. OT is all about possession.

Kakko needs to get a little faster. He’s not quite as effective with all that open ice, as he’s not a burner.

 

[will1066]

You can see Kakko's ice time increase bit by bit and being deployed in more situations.

He is so good with his stick, doesn't take penalties either doing it.

Time to start shopping Trouba. He gave away the puck the first two times he touched it in the first period and then several times after that. He might be the worst D we have.

Their decision to make him captain was idiotic and reeks of trying to salvage that awful contract he has where he is being paid like a #1D. He's probably not even a top pair defender at this moment, and he might not even be a great middle pair defender. Would have to check the stats.

lol, who is asking? No thanks.

 

[egelband]

Can anyone let me know the possession metrics for this one? And the expected goals? I would imagine they’re hugely tilted toward the rangers.

Not what you asked, but I did find this on the Flyers board:

You totally made this.

We had 3 xG at even strength which is an absolute beating.

The Flyers had about 1.5 which is run of the mill.

The game looked lopsided and don't think 3.0-1.5 isn't lopsided. It absolutely is.

 

[will1066]

It's not pretty over there on the Flyers board. Basically calling Torts a fraud and mocking "culture" and "tough to play against."

Unit 2 PP Suggestion

Laf - Chytil - Vesey

Jones - Kakko

Doesn't really matter, Unit 2 doesn't get any time to set anything up.

Hell to the no.

 

[Machinehead]

Julien Gauthier just out here choking people

 

[Unpredictable1]

He is so good with his stick, doesn't take penalties either doing it.

To be totally honest, starting with this year I now assume he's taking the puck from whoever he enters a corner with.

Also when it comes to multiple players on him because he's ragging the puck down low, I find myself thinking "now how is he gunna get through this one...wait, wtffffffffff?!?"

Unit 2 PP Suggestion

Laf - Chytil - Vesey

Jones - Kakko

I like this much better. It's Trouba who kills that unit. He totally rips ass on the powerplay.
