So the refs were, in fact, poopty?

How did they look? I missed the game due to work obligations.

2 Tampa Bay PP goals pretty much decided it. Otherwise good effort and even down 4-2 late battled back to make it a one goal game and still could have tied it. Decent chances.

Suspect officiating will be the overall tone of the game. I liked what I saw out there minus the 2nd PP unit like mentioned earlier.

Yeah and having a 2nd PP unit with Schultz on it is pretty poopty too. The 2nd PP unit is a train wreck right now.

I think one positive to come from this has been the play of MDZ. I wouldn't mind seeing him with Coburn when he returns

Wrong thread

I hope the FA dman Hextall has in mind isn't Carlo Colaiacovo. He would be in a wheelchair after 2 games.
- PLindbergh31

Hilarious. He'll be crippled long before Coburn returns.

Its Carlo!

I'm not laughing at the acquisition because I want the guy to play well, but holy hell, have I ever joked about how brittle that guy has been over the years

Funny how that poop goes

bottom line the Flyers cannot beat the Lightning, Devils or Rangers

The Flyers are pretty good against the devils

Flyers have signed UFA defenseman Carlo Colaiacovo. Chronic injuries took big bite out of his abilities, but he used to be pretty good.



Lovely scouting report

They missed off sides on one of the TB goals. The calls on Rinaldo, Giroux, and Luke Schenn were all bad calls in my opinion.

I didn't have an issue with the Too Many Men or the Couturier high stick but the rest of this was nonsense. I'm with you.

Grossmann's high stick was a legitimate call also.

The Philly Pretzel factory churning out another pretzel. I love how a team racked by injuries on the blueline goes out and signs a guy made of glass.

Its Carlo!

I wouldn't have done anything. The Flyers have hung in there fine.

They need another defenseman for now. Can't continue to carry a minor leaguer as a 7th defenseman.

I didn't see it, I was spent by this point but I don't doubt it.

Dude, when will you ever lay off Luke Schenn?

You know what? I didn't hate Manning tonight. Once he settled in, he was good.

What did my comment have to do with Luke Schenn?

ha ha I am hilarious, but seriously, Luke Schenn is like a 7th defenseman.































Just kidding. He's like a sixth.

This is what we have to look forward to with our new defenseman:
