Loving the old-school announcing on the CBC feed of the MON/BOS game on NHLN. Play-by-play between the whistles, and color commentary during breaks...no talk of what players had for lunch or what their favorite color underwear is. This ain't Doc, Edzo and Pierre.

I missed the game but I see Mason had a shut out today! Never scored on as a Flyer!

Yeah, if the Devils score in the last 42 seconds it's almost the worst day possible.

For me it was that they have 2 AHL defenseman and two #7 guys on D that was the biggest difference today. It finally caught up to them.

The forwards not burrying their chances didn't help.

Sucks because that was a pretty flawed team they were playing today.
They have some nice players, love Kane, but overall they are as bad as the Flyers.
Byfuglien is awful, I hope I hear no more rumors about the Flyers pursueing him.

right now before the lottery they would be picking 6th not counting what happens with the games still in action.

Nothing yet on Laughton but if they keep pace with things he'd be looking at a 10 game suspension which likely ends his OHL career.

No they are not, they have the lottery but even at 6 the list of solid draft candidates are still very strong

That went out the window when the Flyers beat Boston and the caps back to back. As much as I'm pulling for the Flyers it's just a high hill to climb. I have to say I was very impressed with Homer at the deadline. Hall and Mason for a 3rd in 3 years is excellent. Not sure the return on Feds and Gagne beats that.

Monahan, Nurse, Zadorov, Ristolainen, Lindholm, Shinkaruk. Some others too with plenty of time to look them over for teams.

I don't believe they have shot to win it, not on Bettmans watch

I'd love a top 3 pick but it's not a worry to me at least if it doesn't happen.

I love us to get our dirty hands on Barkov if we fail to land a top 3

He'll at this point go probably 4th, did hurt his shoulder recently and it will keep him out for the remainder of the Finnish playoffs.

He may, but I can't remember his name, Russian winger, is a wildcard at this point

His name is Valeri Nichushkin...........One player I'd be shocked if he lasted until they pick in round 2 is Halifax goalie Zach Fucale, I know he had Drouin & MacKinnon playing in front of him but man is he fun to watch.

did you see the Phils game tonight? Shows it's never over, until it's over. Flyers have no shot at top 3 unless they hit the lotery so hoping they lose is a waste.

No a 12th or 13th pick has me worried. Top 6 and that would be fine. God the flames are terrible btw

Even then I wouldn't be upset, plenty of talent.
