I blame Carter myself.

Well, really, Stevens never should have had him out there at that point in the game.

I don't think that exists. No defenseman is perfect.

You've obviously never watched Shea Weber.

no offense to Rosehill who seems like a good guy but good! and if he clears he can always come back up as the 14th forward

I'm just hoping there are no more players getting 3 minutes then being stapled to the bench. If you are in the lineup you should play, otherwise you shouldn't be in the lineup. I don't care what your role is supposed to be.

How the hell did we get to the point where we are debating whether or not OLIVER LAURIDSON! OLIVER........FREAKING........LAURIDSON, should be replacing Schenn or Grossmann in the lineup.

I had to do a double take on my browser to make sure I hadn't somehow ended up on Facebook or Philly.com and they changed their layout.

Lauridsen shouldn't even be replacing Schultz.

Why the D, as I stated in my last post, should keep their heads on a swivel.

You know you can effectively tie up a player without losing sight of the puck.

That's the only area where I think MacDonald can be blamed. Forget about the puck, and just focus on the man. But still I don't have a problem with how he played it. He had good coverage.

Wayne Cashman kneecapped him before he had the chance to pull him.

If we somehow combined Shea Weber with Cherry Hill's own Bobby Ryan, we'd have a Mega Hockey Player capable of scoring all of the goals and having all of the puck bunnies.

Personally, I'd prefer Rosehill as the 19th forward.

I think they'll have Alt or Manning as a callup before they even consider Ollie.

I agree with this. Although I thought Coburn took himself too deep to the side of net, AMac had his man covered then spun to his right leaving Fehr open. He should have looked to his left, while blocking Fehr out with his body. It was a simple mistake by him but a costly one.

Why isn't Berube trying Mason at D? Give Emery a few more starts.

Mason has a big body, moves well for his size and he handles the puck well.

I'd keep him in his goalie gear too. Let's see MacDonald try to lead the team in blocks then.

He would still be more mobile than Oliver Lauridson.

Carter was rated as one of the top 50 players in hockey according to various scouts coaches and GMs

And Rinaldo the 18th ?

Lauridsen shouldn't even be replacing Schultz.
- BiggE

I have no idea what anybody is seeing that would make them think Lauridsen belongs in the NHL.

And Rinaldo the 18th ?
- ob18

Not the guy wearing Rinaldo's number during the preseason. Whoever that guy is can play a little bit.

That wasn't really the argument. The argument was whether every decision the flyers make is right
