GDT: Flyers @ Devils - 7:00 PM - TNT, TRUTV, MAX

@Bleedred can say what he wants but he's absolutely someone I'm glad we have back there. We've been through the wringer at this position for the past several years. To have two veteran guys who can step up and perform is going to be invaluable down the stretch.

He has his flubs, every goalie typically does, but he stepped up in a big way last night.

Cant ask more than that from your backup. Since November he's played 14 games and has struggled to put Ws on the board but the team has laid an egg multiple times with him in net. Max 2 goals for in half of those 14 starts.

I noticed that (they’ve been having issues since at least Tuesday now) and I definitely have a hard time believing it was quite that much.

I can’t see him having an expected almost 6 goals against for the entire game, but I could see about 4. We were pretty terrible in the 1st period. Pretty much until we got that power play with under a minute left.

I wouldn’t surprised if he had an expected goals of 2 in the 1st period. But if they really have him for close to 6 the whole game then they’d probably have him down for closer to 4 in the 1st period.

Both Hockey Viz and Natural Stat Trick have the Flyers at 3.6 xG.

Evolving Hockey is a bit higher at 3.9 xG

Man that Tatar reverse hit after his breakaway was awesome lol.

Kind of a bummer how important that win felt. Sure, I look at the standings today and we're still doing fine. But I just think we really needed that win.

4 more games before the break? I'd really like at least 3/4.... or 6 out of 8 points.

How else are you gonna try to elevate the 2nd best power play in the NHL? You can never be satisfied!
