Also, please stop John Boruck from asking questions in the locker room.

You saw a different game then I did. I don't think they played a perfect game. Need to be a little better on the puck, and better in puck support. The PP was bad. The Giroux line wasn't that good, which I know will change. Passign was a little off at times. But overall, the defensive coverage was good, and the effort was there all game. Have to give some credit to the Bruins. They do what all good teams do, they take away time and space.

The Flyers didn't get a point, but they played well enough to get one. A tough penalty that didn't need to be taken led to the first goal, a ridiculously bad bounce for the second

If they play like that the rest of the year, they'll be fine

That kid's last name is an anagram for Chris Pronger's nickname.

Exactly. I half expect him to lay a hand on the player's shoulder if he wasn't so rigid.

Effort was great one way...and on the forcheck....but if you can't see how they struggle in their own end when trying to move the puck then I'm not sure what game you watched?
That's not the same Bruins team....there was like 5 new guys tonight....they just do things the right way....not some times....always.

PEB and Coots lines in particular were very good w/ puck management. Vinny's line was up and down.

G line....

Lecavalier and Umberger both had solid games.

Tonight's game, I liked Del Zotto, Umberger, Bellemare, Grossmann and Simmonds

Mason was amazing

Didn't love Raffl, B. Schenn

Coburn made a huge mistake but the MacDonald/Coburn pairing should survive to see another night

Good compete level in the 2nd and 3rd period. There is good balance with the current 2nd, 3rd, and 4th lines. Mason was great as everyone has already said.

Good news is that they get right back on the ice tomorrow and can erase this tough loss quickly.

I didn't particularly care for the McDonald/Coburn combo tonight. Hopefully they get better as a pairing with some games played.

No question about it. Some areas where they could be better. But overall a strong and encouraging effort.

PP was not very good.

Still have hopes that it will gel with time.
