Late in the 2nd

Taylor Leier (2012 Flyers pick) has a goal

Vancouver - 2
Portland - 1

I have never seen such a boring flyer team in years

Geez they just said on HNIC that a 9 year old boy in Canada was killed when the net fell on him.

We were in the Upper Bowl. I don't remember what the ticket prices were. It did not seem like they liked Americans very well. Especially wearing Flyers colors. One of our guys got jumped on the way out.

No way? In Toronto? I've gone to Habs games and had small issues..some people spit on my Hextall jersey, so I went to the fangear store on the concourse and cleaned it off with a Habs jersey. (frank) em.

Went to Boston last year and it was a bit intense.. Didn't like us cheering.

Not even 06-07?

Don Cherry, probably the biggest Matt Cooke hater ever, just said he didn't mean to do it and it was a freak accident

And Cherry said after that statement, that Clarkson should be on the Canadian Olympic team. So obviously he's drunk off his ass.

Unless you are getting Stamkos, Crosby, Kate Upton or Malkin back for that , no thanks for a trade that moves those 3.

Sorry I thought the sarcasm was solid...

Yep.. it was a horrible incident. Big net fell on his head while he was trying to move it.. Wondered why the parents weren't around..

Hard to develop chemistry when the lines are changed every game.

I'm sure that's the reason they can't score.

Unless you're standing between an opponent with the puck and an empty net just about every penalty has some level of stupidity to it.

No reason to go in for that hit there.
- hereticpride

I disagree, taking a guy down as he's about to go in on a breakaway is a good penalty. So long as it doesn't lead to a penalty shot.

Still - that was not a smart penalty by Rinaldo, but most of his penalties this season have been committed by referees seeing ghosts.

Can we trade Steve Coates for don Cherry.... More to come

He didn't say how many years

I love him.. very colourful and a real character, but really nice if you get to meet him.

Man. That's terrible.

Couldn't disagree more. That penalty drives me nuts every time.

Man. That's terrible.

I don't have kids, but he was only 9 so someone prob should have been there with him. IMHO

I'm sure that's the reason they can't score.

I didn't say that. But guys can't develop any chemistry when they are constantly playing with different linemates.

That's why I have a hard time getting on his case. I suppose if the trend doesn't change somehow, he's gotta be pronounced damaged goods.

he loves you also

Don Cherry is an old fart.

The hockey world will be a better place once both are gone.

I generally don't have access to the Flyers broadcasts. Jackson is insufferable, Coates is a waste, Jones is meh.... I like Clement but he rarely does any games.

Ohhh. That sucks. Sorry to hear that.

Maybe I will rethink that whole trip to the ACC.
