It always easy for non fans to blame goalies. I fight with islander fans all the time about how good lundqvist is

Well, the media in Canada and some in the US tend to watche zero Flyers games and if they struggle, they say when will they get a goalie? We could have Bernie in his prime and it would be the same...that hasn't been the issue this year.

Trolltastic job by Randy Miller on twitter, by the way.

He took a picture of how empty the WFC at the start of the game, implying that fans were blowing the game off.

He failed to mention the giant accident on 295 in South Jersey, impeding South Jersey fans (of whom, there are many) from getting to the game.

Nice job, Randy.

He asked the other day why McGinn was sent down to the AHL if he was so good, never considering the orbital bone rehab. I'd love to have guys that know a little bit about the sport covering it.

I think you're overselling his knowledge of the sport. Drastically.

He has been a good soldier.

I dont know what the hell was happening at the end of the first there. Talbot gets cleanly outmuscled, Fedetenko does nothing to win the puck back except having his stick on the ice, and Coburn/Kimmo both running to the same side of the ice.

Yup. Courier Post.

All due respect to Bill Meltzer, who has defended Randy, but the Courier traded down big time when Chuck Gormley left that paper and they had Randy cover the Flyers.

I thought it was Ant SF who was the writer there... I don't mind tim p, but sam carchidi has made some stupid comments like the shoot outs in the playoffs..

I must say, we are spoiled up here with all kinds of writers etc, that know their poop. Example, they have hockey central at noon on sportsnet and that`s hockey tonight, and the time shift accross the country allows me to watch them over and over.. also have the score with good analysis....really good coverage.

speaking of which, I thought Couts had a great first period,
and Gusty wasn't awful ( I know you're not a fan)
