After beating the Bruins in that snooze-fest earlier this week, scoring one 5-on-5 goal and an ENG, Philly slumbered their way to a 2-1 win over St. Louis. I perused the Flyers board afterward, and someone was lamenting how slow their board was after a win.

There was a great response - that's the problem with non-event hockey. There's nothing to talk about. ;)

So let's hope this isn't an afternoon of endless passes, only to eventually put a low percentage shot into the shins of Tortorella's shot-blocking Flyers.

The B's contained Konecny/Couturier/Michkov last game, but that may be trickier not having last change.

The B's PK has the potential to be historically bad, so stay out of the box.

The players seem to be enjoying themselves on the road, going by videos the team posts. Hopefully they ran the Rocky steps, visited the Liberty Bell, went to Pat's or Geno's, or for the cultured ones took in the Philadelphia Art Museum, etc. today. And Saturday they will be focused and ready.

So Monty not fired? When I heard that practice was cancelled I was sure that meant Monty had to go have a sit down with Don and Cam. Guess not.
Alright, carry on then. I'm sure this game will be different :)

The B's better come out flying with lots of shots and crashing the net

I cannot take another effortless game like the last two

..they owe their fans a game where they at least give a shit

I wonder if the locker room is divided like the whole world seems to be. The political atmosphere is a powder keg, if there are guys in the room that are polar opposites about what is happening, it absolutely could make chemistry an issue.

I hope they play hard, give us something to show they are not nearly as bad as they have shown us so far this season. Don't make us waste a Saturday afternoon!!!! Get the two points and feel some pride!

not at all imo

Majority of my long time friends think the opposite of me which I enjoy bothers the shit out of them since I know they think I’m a great judge of people, and we get along just fine still

How many have been in relationships that ran its course

This is how I see it

The league used to be great before they completely sucked the life out of it.

It’s incredibly generic and faceless.
Purely a playoff sport. Regular season you get maybe a dozen real fun games. I go to all the devils bruins games at the Rock but the tix and parking are always comped haven’t paid for them in five years

The Bruins really need to score 1st tonight, they are low on confidence and can't afford to fall behind again. I see Luxmore is officiating, not good, 15 year olds shouldn't be officiating NHL games.
