GDT: Game 78: Tortorella's Hart-less Flyers vs. Montreal Canadiens, Tues. April 9, 19:00 @ The Bell Centre | TSN2, RDS

[The Real Timo]

If they’re making the playoffs next year, I’d honestly keep Armia

We ARE making da playoffs. I am f***ing done with rebuild.

Imagine the last play we saw. Rfull developp Reinbacher, that puck ain't travelling deep in Habs zone like that. Rein will stop that at his spot and make the next good play.

At least the flyers didn’t goon it up

Mesar game is going to OT

 

[The Real Timo]

Philly is outshooting the Habs

Habs at almost 30% scoring percentage. Insane.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

Is it only me or I am starting to really like Armia. Weird. Have mixed feelings.

 

[OnTheRun]

To be an asshole? They deserve it if they really decided to give up in the middle a playoffs race because they hate their coach.

Don't make it sounds like he doesn't deserve to be victim of his own gimmick.

Slaf is the man

 

[Stive Morgan]

I'm eating major crow on Slaf goddamn. Not that I expect an 18/19 year old to be an instant superstar but he looks completely different since the 2nd half of the season.

 

[The Real Timo]

Well... for a change this has been fun. Time to eat.

 

[sampollock]

Mesar game is going to OT

Torts might at the presser

It's not about that and honestly i'm always amaze when i read things like that. Tort asks his players to give their 120% all games. I know fans believe it's possible to do that for 82 games but the sad reality is no it's not possible. You can do that for 40 maybe 60 games but that's about it you will eventually run out of juice. That's why good teams doesn't show up against bad teams all the time they don't waste energy if they don't have to. The Flyers simply ran out of juice there's nothing left in the tank. Couturier came back from two serious injuries and Tort was playing him 20 minutes a game to start the season instead of managing his TOI. Any coach whose system is to ask player to give their 120% every games is not a very good coach in my book. Tort used to be more subtle that he is these days back when he started.
