Vinny's puck handling has been especially solid tonight

Flyers are capable of beating any team in this league when they play a complete team game. I wish all the non-believers who post nothing but negativity on here will just go cheer for a different team!

Solid effort last part of the second... we could be tied here...

Great pass by Giroux there. Snipe by Hartnell.

The first part of the first was how a foul weather fan would expect the Flyers to play against a team like Chicago. The latter part has been how we all would hope they play against a team like Chicago.

They seemed to have really balanced out the game and actually have been carrying the play over the past 10 mins or so.

they are. they still look slow and scary in their own end against a team with the skill chicago has. amazing how many times they just can't find the handle on the puck and get it out. i really hope they improve in this area tonight or it's going to cost them.

The puck-handling is all for nothing if he just gives it away.

Replay showed Harts standing still at the high slot watching read and Roux work their asses off... pass come out, he moves up and buries... Glory...lol

I sort of like Coots Read and G on the ice at the same time.

You hate them, and love them. This game is great evidence of that.

When Hartnell runs cold its horrific, but when he is hot like this. Fun to watch. Hopefully he keeps it going.

Id like to see him shoot more. He has a great shot. Just get it on net. Raanta doesn't look especially sharp.

When they step away from their game, they get into trouble.

Keep it simple. Don't try and skate with the Hawks, keep the puck deep, pressure the defenders, and put a body in front of Auntie Randy.

Very happy with the response of the team after a horrible start. Emery is still gonna have to keep it together..

How many teams don't look that way when Chicago is attacking though?

The line of Couts-G-Read plays well together. I know Berube likes putting them together for late period defensive zone face-offs.

In fairness to Ray, the Hawks are head and shoulders above the Flyers.

Flyers are trying to be patient, and slow this game down, not sure if they know how to play that way effectively. The strength is a strong forecheck. In their own zone, meh.

- flyer_nutter


Didn't look like the Hawks are head and shoulders above the Flyers for the majority of that period. I give the Flyers the edge for that period.
