All in all not a bad period. If they can just stop taking penalties...

Couturier looks really strong on the puck today, also thought Grossmann had a really solid period too.

Did not get rewarded with assist--but that shift was a lot of Voracek applying a tough forecheck. Good to see. He's got his legs moving.

But they have to take less penalties or else those legs'll just be churning on the bench.

Raffl is playing well. Is he no longer our whipping boy? It should go back to L. Schenn or Rosehill. Its only natural.

just enjoy the goal this doesn't have to turn into a Streit debate

streit sucks right?

Glad to see Streit score, but if the caps goalie comes out to the top of the crease he probably stops it. either way, nice to see something positive from Streit, though I still don't like the contract.

Timonen dive. Ugh I hate that this is the NHL today.

I'll bet you anything you want that if Ovechkin hit you from behind like that you go down also.

Agreed -- for better or worse, the contract's going to be on the books for awhile. It's better if he plays well, and I think/hope he can...but seriously, WTH has gotten into Michael Raffl?

That guy's trying to save Homer's job and stay in the Top 9!

looked like he gave kimmo a pretty good shot on the lower back, probably wasn't expecting it either.

PP looks good, has done everything but score. creating some good chances

Still think the Flyers powerplay is trying to be too tricky and ornate. Simplification in my opinion will pay dividends.
