Well, they should be motivated and angry at themselves tonight. Hopefully, that translates into a desperation that they showed against the Rangers the last time out.

I suspect a fresher, motivated Rangers team, for sure.

I don't know what Kreider is in the doghouse for, or if it's even warranted... but they need him in the lineup. They need that offensive lethality outside of the first line, and somewhat second. Kreider has shown amazing potential. Either he needs to straighten up, or Torts needs to lighten up...

That being said, hopefully it's a good game tonight. Flyers had a day to rest, and get ripped out for their lack of hustle on Sunday.. so they better come out ready to play, and Giroux better be ready to lead by example.

Insightful, thanks for playing.

Agreed, Giroux has to come out tonight and be the leader he's expected to be.

Amen to that. He desperately needs to start staying out of the box. If guys are taking bad penalties again I want to see G get in their face. I'm getting sick of it.

After tonight the Flyers have off until Friday... there should be no excuse why they cant go balls to the wall. They need to play 60 minutes at 100%. Both teams are at the bottom of the division and need to win this game. Should be a hell of a battle.

I expect Briere and Giroux both to have big games tonight. Real leaders will respond after an outing like Sunday. Timmonen is a leader too but I'd say with his post season surgeries he's in a different boat right now. Need him to keep doing whatever he's doing next to schenn for now. Seems like the younger dman is making strides here. I'm sure kimo has a hand in that.

They have quite a list of things that need improvement. As if that's not challenging enough they're facing a better team that should be fired up for revenge for last week.

I hope it's an entertaining game.

Yes yes you're one of the informed posters here we know (gets comfortable to wait for impending Laughton debates)

There would be people here who would debate Laughton on his assessment that he needs to get stronger.

"What do you mean you have to get stronger, you are plenty strong enough to play NHL games right now"

His stint here really impressed me. Can't wait to see him at camp next season. I think he's gonna be more than a John Madden 3rd line center type. Then again with Giroux and couturier it'll be tough for him to play higher here.

Bone chips in his left ankle. Keep him out as a precaution.

Very encouraged by Laughton. Returning him to Juniors was absolutely the correct decision.
