Why the heck are the Flyers completing more passes to wide open Rangers players than guys in Flyers jerseys. It's not even close. If there's a Ranger's guy with no flyers guy around him the Flyers will pass it to him.

A coaching change isn't going to make the Flyers suddenly connect on passes, know what the other guys are doing, etc. They need better execution still.

Don't understand why we have to make 10 passes before they shoot. Put the puck on net and things will happen.

bunch of idiots. awful. had the game gift wrapped with 2 pps in the final 10 minutes.

the end of the game is where missing pronger and meszaros really shows. just (frank)ing awful.

at least bryz is out of the woods. unfortunately, this team couldn't score in a whore house with fists full of 100s.

That's a travesty. He was the first star for the Flyers anyways,.

So this is where the Flyers are at. We finally have a goalie playing well and the rest of the team goes to poop. Think about that for a second.

The sad part is that there's not alot of new guys on the team. It's not like they are learning a new system or where the other players should be. Most of them were here last year. With the number of passes they completed to Rangers players it looked like they were confused as to which team they play for.

at what cost
- 2Real




Hes playing to his contract this season so far no? Young guys who got paid are not performing, Im not seeing how affording Bryz is holding this team back from scoring? Not arguing, but what are you referring to?

Voracek has to be taken off the PP, I would consider scratching him for a few games.

B. Schenn gets his shot blocked a ton.

- PLindbergh31


I don't know about scratching him, but I agree with taking him off of the first PP unit. He is hesitant and is thinking the game too much. Looking like he completely lacks confidence with the puck.

The rest of the team isn't even on the same page. It looks like they have never played together. Is there a game plan?

Honestly, that is Laviolette's saving grace to me...guys can't complete simple passes. No coaching change or systemic adjustment will fix that. Guys have to play smarter and work harder.

The rally at the end was encouraging, but to get off one shot with 20 seconds left? The one good thing is that there's more guys than Bryz that we can say are playing OK.

It seems like every time he was out there on it, the rags got an odd man rush. He might have the poop for it but his passing seems like a liability maybe I'm wrong.
