I have thought all year long that you build your team around Giroux and Jake (2 dynamic players) and move Couturier as part of a package for a legit , under 30 dman.

I have seen nothing to change that thought process based on Voracek's performance so far.

No way I move coots. In this scenario you move Schenn.

If Giroux is hurt I get the ice time. We live and die with Giroux. Give him the chance to play the way he can. Whatever is going on is crushing him.

I wonder if all those cross checks the first two games caught up to him?

Well if the Flyers quit taking penalties, hopefully Giroux is able to get out there more the rest of the game

Or if the Refs start calling penalties, they could get some freaking PP time!

Schenn or Couturier alone do not get you a legit under 30 dman.

Voracek played 3:46 in that period.

The only forwards with less time were Akeson, Rinaldo, Hartnell and Giroux.

Sigh. I can understand them being beat by a faster team with stronger goaltending. That makes sense.

Focusing so hard on your stupid defensive philosophy to not play your best players is not acceptable. I have been fairly neutral on Berube all year but the distribution of ice time is ridiculous.

As well as his comment of "do you want me to bench anyone who takes a penalty?" When he was asked about the Flyers penalty troubles I think after game 1. He preached discipline and about them taking far too many penalties, he hasn't done jack poop to fix it.

Check out the minutes played in that 1st. In particular Voracek, Giroux and Hartnell. (frank)ing play them!

yeah I don't get it, I'd at least be running Jake out there every 3rd shift

Yeah can't give the Flyers a powerplay. You just can't. Coots mugged, no call. Streit run, no call. Hartnell lets up on a hit and bumps a player who makes himself hit the boards and throws his head back to get a call, 2 minutes.

It's typical reffing in a Flyers game.

Well, assuming the quote was in relation to Akeson, he made the right call by doing nothing. Let's see how he handles the rest of the game here

Meh... I use to want to have Liam's children. But he's turned out to be a pretty weird guy that I just can't get excited about watching anymore.

It's been horribly inconsistent throughout the playoffs, East and West. I don't need games to be perfect, I just want consistent. If you're going to call Simmonds for his cross check, then you need to call St Louis for interference on Timonen right before the second Ranger goal.

i was screaming bloody murder when he was taken out. and i knew immediately the puck would end up in the net.
