Bill Meltzer: Flyers Playoff Gameday: ECQF Game 6 vs. NYR

It would be nice to dictate play for a change. We've been reacting to them all series and it's led us to an elimination game. What I really want to see is sustained offensive pressure, not an occasional shot here and there. Cycling the puck, gaining some offensive momentum and forcing the Rangers to cater to us in their zone. We've had little to no sustained offensive momentum.

They can shuffle the lines and whatever else they can think of, but unless these guys come out and play Flyers hockey - hard nosed, in your face, step on the line but don't cross it, make them react to you hockey - they won't be making it any easier on themselves.

They've either been playing with intensity, while not playing smart. Or playing smarter and lacking intensity and emotion. Need to combine the two. And the Flyers can take the series.

LET'S GO FLYERS!!! CLAP! ~ CLAP! ~ CLAP!CLAP!CLAP!!!

Still think they win this one if for no other reason than because it's what I thought days ago

I personally believe 100% in what you posted here. I still feel that the Flyers can win this series.

So lets say we win tonight...... what is going to get us a win in game 7? Mason pitch a SO?

Rangers have completely been beatable. Flyers have not played at their best. Still a chance if we are proactive and not reactive.

Their backs are against the door now, and it opens out. I wanna see a load of push back from them tonight.

I'll settle for this game for now.

They win tonight and the momentum is all theirs for a back to back game 7.

Agreed, a win tonight and all the pressure is on the Rangers in game 7

well time to put up or shut up....time for flyer hockey not the pu$$y brand they have been playing l8tly

I would like to see Raffl get some shifts with Voracek and Giroux tonight. While he has hands of stone, he carries the puck well, is great along the wall and is a better playmaker than Hartnell. I also think Giroux has a tendency to shoot more with Raffl on his line then he does with Hartnell and I want him shooting as much as possible.

I want to see Giroux throw a monster crosby style hit on Zucarello and then score. That should wake them up.

Somehow I feel they play safe and soft like the previous 5 games. Us Flyers fans can't let go of the Legion of Doom, Broad Street Bullies days. This team is nothing like those guys. Sadly.

I hate that Zuccarello, not because he is oh so good. I dont like how he looks like a hobbit of some sort.

i agree he tends to try to set up Hartnell for the 1 timer with all of hartnells flaws he has a very good shot.... and Giroux trys to take advantage of it

Hopefully Giroux scoring a goal last game will be a catalyst like in the regular season.
