The goaltending and d-zone coverage have been a poopshow.

Still generating plenty of chances, but every mistake ends up in the back of the Flyers net.

just like the old days under Lavy.

They're definitely not gonna look that awesome after today. As long as he stays between a .910% or .920% for the season im good. Considering what we paid for him and what we had before him.
- Yosimar89

If his stats are worse maybe we can get him for a lower cap hit over a long term. Silver linings everywhere.

THE LIGHTING WILL WIN THIS GAME! THE Flyers cannot and will not come back in this game and even get a point!

Lighting win 6-4 with a Carle empty netter.
- Yosimar89

Yep.. I think it will be 9-8 a la the Winnipeg game two years ago. Carle turns it up in the third, scores the next 4 goals for TB and ends the game plus 9...

That indecision at the end of the period from L. Schenn was something you don't see from High School players.

Something tells me he's going to fall short of the top pairing defensive, defenseman projections.

Carle is a plus 5
- nastyflyergirl

He is currently tied with Boychuk for 2nd in the Eastern conference in +/- among defenseman.

Exactly. The flyers just have no shot here!

They will not win this game against the lightning!

I wanted Carle gone. So I'm not going to complain about him.
- PLindbergh31

I wanted him back and felt he was underappreciated but I also cringed at 5.5 and the term. now that I see what Streit and others have gotten I guess 5.5 is just market these days crazy or not

STUD, somewhere MJL is smiling and nodding his head slowly saying "i told you so".

yeah, pretty much my feelings as well.

I agree wholeheartedly

Emery starts the third.. it's the right call..

As for Carle, I still hate that we got rid of him.. oh wait.. he left as a UFA.. hmmm..

That's a fair point. I didn't want Carle, but I certainly didn't want Streit at his current term.

Berube starts with Grossmann and Streit. Obviously doesn't blame them.

Sell the farm for him

In hindsight, this team would have been much better off had they just re-signed Carle and Jagr instead of chasing the big fish.

Let's not rehash. It's over now. Lets cheer for Streit! Yayyyyyy

I love how my (frank)ing feed is perfectly fine during intermission and then when the 3rd period is about to start it goes to poop

Can we just trade for Yandle after this game please?

Sounds very rational

Streit and Mez are a combined -4 but they're leading the team in ice time.

Attack of the Refs! Typical over-calling and getting it wrong on the blueline.

Emery making saves like he didn't expect to have to play today.

in this game I think you could just roll the dice to see who started the 3rd

Lighting will probably go into Guy Boucher mode now if they haven't forgotten how to do it.

Raffl has really improved by leaps and bounds. He's turning into a very versatile player.

they call a one hand tap on the hip a hooking penalty earlier, but let a text book hook go here in third
