Still say the Debbies should've signed Brash for this game

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

at this rate Rempe gunna have concyssion problems his whole life very soon

At least he "earned it" the right way!

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Matthews 7 goals away from 70 now with 7 games left after tonight.

There is a thread on the main board about the line brawl. Looks like most of the comments were written by 12 year olds

 

[trostol]

Torte probably has a super chub right now after watching that

It's crazy that Ovi could very well break a record that seemed impossible to break, and Matthews is already on a higher pace than he was at the same age.

Unrelated, MSG played "Everybody clap your hands" in the second period. Something tells me that would.never have been played at the Spectrum.

I'm not gonna sit here and pretend I WOULDN'T be super jacked up if a 5v5 line brawl broke out at a game I was at

That's because we're Flyers fans. We're used to "fine" at best. As long as we've got #balls and #grit, who cares if our top scorer tops out at 65 points or so?

It’s insane to see those numbers all over. Feels like we need 3 elite scorers still.

Really weird this team has had a fetish for any RHD with a pulse but had no interest in signing this guy.

 

[BigToe]

You love to see it

There's a thread on the main boards for creating an all-time roster for your team with late round picks (defined as 100 oa or later). This is what I could cobble together for Philly (obviously forward positions and defensive sides aren't perfect). If I missed anyone let me know.
Basically we can draft decent goalies late but not much else.

Pelle Eklund (161)-Anton Stastny (198)-Rick Tocchet (121)
Pat Maroon (161)-Paul Holmgren (108)-Andy Brickley (210)
Alexander Selivanov (140)-Andrei Lomakin (138)-Dave Brown (140)
Oskar Lindblom (138)-Noah Cates (137)-Todd Fedoruk (164)

Gord Murphy (189)-Dennis Seidenberg (172)
Murray Baron (167)-Dmitry Yushkevich (132)
Dmitri Tertyshny (132)-Norm Barnes (122)

Ron Hextall (119)
Pete Peeters (135)

HM: Samuel Ersson (143), Zac Rinaldo (178), Roman Cechmanek (171), Antero Niittymaki (168), Radovan Somik (100), Colin Forbes (166), Johan Hedberg (218), Chris Herperger (223)

The only thing you could really do is flop Lindblom to the other side and put in Eric Wellwood at 4LW if you were a fan before the injury. It's difficult to fault someone for choosing either side of that one.

Penguins up 3-0 on the Capitals
Islanders tied 2-2 with the blue jackets

Penguins with a win go to 1 point out and 2 behind the Flyers, but they have the toughest schedule.

 

[TheKingPin]

Pens beating the caps!

 

[Beef Invictus]

The "race" for the last spot and WC slots is mega pathetic this year

He was a Hextall guy, that’s why

 

[GKJ]

Dobson scores for NYI

This post made me look through all Flyers draft picks as I was sure there had to be better options. There were none.

I’d bump Niittymäki in his pre-hip injury, best goalie of the olympics form to the backup slot though. Without the injuries, he could have been one of the great finnish goalies in the nhl. From wikipedia

”He suffered a torn labrum injury to his left hip during training camp. Doctors decided to try giving him cortisone shots to postpone surgery, which would have sidelined him for 6–8 weeks. The first shot allowed him to get back on the ice for the start of the season, but by late December he needed another shot. Despite this, he managed to take over the starting goaltender position from Esche, after Esche fell out with the coaching staff and management. However, Philadelphia acquired Martin Biron and he was given the starting position for the rest of the year. Niittymäki finally had hip surgery in summer 2008.”

Sounds eerily familiar…

 

[bennysflyers16]

Us missing and Pens getting in will be icing on the shit sundae.

 

[GKJ]

Both leads hold.

The Islanders are in the second wild card

I always liked Niitty. He was money in the AHL. Not sure if he would've been elite but I do think he definitely could've lasted much longer than he did after being run into the ground.
