Sounds like Akeson is out for VandeVelde.

Also looks like Coburn isn't playing, either. no confirmation on that yet

Berube looking to create an even worse line up, even without the assistance of injury.

Remember when our 4th line was Rinaldo-PEB-Akeson and there were signs of hope?

Rinaldo-VDV-Blair Jones should be great too though

Coburn definitely out, per Dave Isaac. Doesn't feel ready yet. Is considered likely to play vs Hawks on Tuesday

(frank)ing tremendous -- not complaining about him because he plays a ton of games, but I was really hoping he'd be ready against this particular team

Have a feeling Vegas wouldn't push the chips to the middle of the table on the Flyers tonight, unfortunately

I don't even know what to do with that

Nothing against Vandevelde, but I just don't even know what to do with that

Hey Bill,
I believe you meant the score was 13-2 for an 11 goal margin. They also blanked the Penguins 11-0 in 1977. I knew 9 wasn't right as I remembered that shut-out plus the 12-2 Red Wings and 10-0 Maple Leafs games. They also blanked the Kansas City Scouts twice by 10-0.

Great blog, Bill. Enjoy your time with your family in Dallas.

Stars, Hawks, Pens.

If we don't come out of this with at least 3 points I think someone is getting kicked to the curb.

And then two of the next three are against the Kings and Bolts.

Gagne moved to Boston's 1st line... Meanwhile we cant seem to find a top line LW
- Trainfellow


Raffl is a better 1LW option than Gagne.

The good thing about it is they are taking a lot fewer penalties, especially stupid ones, so they are giving themselves a chance in these games

And they'd better continue, because if you're dressing guys who likely aren't going to help drive ES scoring, you just have to hope they pull a 2-1 or 3-2 win based on solid team play and goaltending -- it can happen. Calgary beat the Blackhawks this week, despite getting outshot 50-18

I think Gagne is pretty washed up.

...but I still don't agree with that.


Raffl couldn't put a puck on the broadside of a barn.

On a positive note...

Eventually the Flyers will beat someone and praise will be given for their effort.

What happens after that win is still dark, but enjoy that first win.

I want to give them the Panthers game but Lu is totally gonna troll us.

Actually, they can probably take the Wings. That team does not scare me all that much.
