leafs win. yay.

NYR are the enemy of my youth, but the Leafs just bring out so much venom.. I dunno.
- Doc_Sarcasm

I hate the Rangers then the Leafs....back from the old days, the Isles used to be the most hated for a while back in the day

Good for us, though -- gotta get in front of the Rags

Umberger was a dumpster fire tonight. Has been playing poorly, tonight was a disaster.
- Jsaquella

so now that there's 5 days off between games, what kind of use do you expect for the next one.

it benefits the flyers in the division standings.

The usual. It will give Berube more time to envision Umberger as being something he isn't

@billmeltzer: New sign this season in Flyers dressing room at WFC:
"No one is bigger than the team.
If you can't do things our way, you're not getting time here
And we don't care who you are."


Not sure Berube has seen this.

"Veterans have earned the right to work through stretches of bad play" -- an idiom that should only be applicable to Top 6 forwards, not bottom 6 forwards nearing their mid-30s

It was put up the day they traded Hartnell

Does he get to work through it for 2 seasons?

Link didn't work, but I typed it out.

Berube sure has his favorites.

Wow -- the Kings are still effed, as far as the cap is concerned

They have to play with 5 defensemen and 13 forwards tonight; have no money to call anyone up

Just finished playing, I see it got a little dicey in the 3rd

Kermit's arms look like ghosts legs last night. Anyone see the video? It's on broadstreethockey
- Just5

Looking at that play, it seems like Ghost thought he could outskate the approaching along the boards hit, something he might have been used to doing in College. He tries to squeak by a narrow window and gets smashed like a fly against the wall. But then, he is able to skate off on his power and even put a little weight on the leg - so I am going to *ugh* go out on a limb and say that's a partial tear.

That kid needs to work on his upper body strength during the rehab.

I hear you, man -- he was injured last year, and I understood that.

But he's healthy now, and his effort tonight was ridiculous

Perception isn't reality. Should be interesting to see how long he lasts. I can't wait until one of the better players questions him and he demands they be traded.

Just some final numbers.

Brayden Schenn 13:44
Akeson: 6:26
Bellemare: 11:28

LeCavalier: 13:41
Umberger: 15:26
Rinaldo: 9:36

Coach doing a great job managing ice time.
- flyer_nutter

ES TOI is more informative.

Umberger 10:20
BSchenn 9:43 (was in the box for five minutes)
Lecavalier 9:30
Bellemare 8:59
Rinaldo 7:47
Akeson 6:26

Damn -- Kings just strafing the Canucks

3-0 in the first

Just got home, DVRd the game. Should I just skip the 3rd?

How did Coburn look?

Did you watch him play last year? He looked exactly like this
- PhillySportsGuy

He's got buyout written all over him after this season

Did you all leave to go to the bar and not invite me?

Skip the 3rd -- you'll feel better

Ha! I'm still around; so damn tired from the week I'm just watching the late game on HNIC
