I'm not sure I can even stomach watching this game.

I am clearly an idiot, I am searching for it on Centre ice and I will watch until it's 6-0 after the first. I hope they start Leighton!

Several things of interest today.

Seeing Lauridsen.

Possibly seeing Marchmouth getting Rinaldo'd.

Watching Patrice Bergeron, for me at least he is a pure joy to watch play.
If he doesn't get the Selke this year it will be a shame.

I have zero expectations they will win the game.

never mind he's a piece of poop

44 Kimmo Timonen - 22 Luke Schenn
29 Erik Gustafsson - 27 Bruno Gervais
38 Oliver Lauridsen - 3 Kurtis Foster


...oh man...

I don't doubt that Boston wins. But if someone can snap off Marchand's beak, I would be happy. If you're going to lose, at least give the fans old-time Flyers/Bruins hockey,

Watch how this blueline steps up. Lots of talent on it. Don't under estimate them.

Im resigned to see Boston destroy this team today. I just hope Lavi understands it is what it is and doesn't try to play Timonen and Schenn 35 minutes each.

I am interested to see Lauridson. Mostly out of curiosity. I fully expect bryz to be pulled before the second period out of mercy.

If the flyers are gonna mail this one in they beter at least get rough with the bruins. That being said the Bs are the type of team that could possibly wake this team up. Philly needs to get into it physcially with the Bs to getintot he game early. Maybe they could not look at the logs and just see black and gold and that should have em ready to play

I think that would be a no brainer for many coaches and fans. Just not this coach.

The one time ever that Lavi isn't thinking 'I could start Leighton'

Maybe as soon as Marchand goes to check a Flyer into the boards, the player could "duck" under the check to avoid the hit.
When Rask (or Khudobin, who would play like Patrick Roy) comes out to play the puck, a Flyer could "brace himself" for the collision by leading with a shoulder to the head.
Maybe Steve Coates can hit Jack Edwards with a pie in the face.

Mailing it in doesn't quite fit their MO.

The effort is there but to no avail.

The last time they got physical with the Bruins they had both fan favorites Sestito and Shelley in the line up and it worked pretty well. Sestito concussed Horton that game IIRC.

Was that the game where Shelley fought Chara and Couturier took a puck in the face?

Go Flyers! As a Sabres fan, we need you to win more as we drive for the basement. Sabres are officially "Losin' for Drouin" mode from here on out. You guys want Miller for Briere?

I see that Dekeyser signed with Detroit..despite our best effortst to sign him..great.. That would have been a solid signing to begin rebuilding the D and he could have started right away..
