86-19-10 doesn’t seem to be a very effective line. Marchenko hasn’t been scoring on that line, Voronkov had a goal last game but has otherwise been quiet and Fantilli is busy with 1 on 3 rushes channeling Laine’s penchant for it. It’s a line that rarely cycles though both Marchenko and Voronkov can.

When Chinakhov comes back, they will have more options

The fact is, we don't have, besides Johnson, a franchise player. The others are second line level mid-team maximum.

The team seems slow to me tonight. Wonder if there's a bug going around the room.

Or they're just having a dog manure game.

Well, KJ bagged another goal to go with his assist. Only highlight I can pull from this.

  • The only bright spots were Johnson and Olivier.
  • Play in NZ was pretty poor.
  • Elvis - fear and dread. But hardly surprising when playing so many games in a row.
  • Something needs to be done with Fantilli's line. Marchenko and Voronkov are just complementary players. And Adam probably wants to be Superman.

Just what I epxect on this page after I left early in the 3rd. An entire page of Elvis bashing while the Flyers literally owe rent in Nationwide Arena for basically signing a lease and moving in at the offensive zone.

Literally nobody was good tonight.

Need Jenner at 2C and Fantilli on the wing ASAP.
Absolutely. My biggest issue with Evason is that he doesn’t change lines soon enough. JVR playing high in the lineup isn’t terrible if he’s with 2 FAST guys. He’d be interesting with Fantilli for some games and I think he’s ok as a W partner with Marchenko. I think he’s a better option than Labanc.

Voronkov at C, Fantilli at W. I’d actually like to see KJ center at this point. Probably more so than either Voronkov or Fantilli.

Jenner, and as I believe you said earlier, Chinakhov are completely missed.

As is Gudbranson.

Laine still is not.

I mean this with 100% sincerity and a complete lack of sarcasm, you understand how important the “starting goalie” position is in ice hockey, correct??

THATS WHY PEOPLE ARE SO BENT OUT OF SHAPE ABOUT ELVIS!!

There were no hugs tonight. Werenski went right to the bench.

Oh and FIRE TORTS!!
