It's too easy to say "fix the PK," because by definition you are a man down, but (frank), the PK is killing them right now
- AllInForFlyers


The PK hasn't been good. But they are also starting to take more penalties.

He's has offense. Just as pretty a pass as the one I believe against Columbus on the Pp
- SuperSchennBros


Yeah, it's sporadic, but every once in awhile he flashes the skill that got him 400 NHL goals.

Nobody's saying he can't show flashes. He needs to do it more consistently.

Possession 65-35 in the Flyers' favor... crazy impressive.

Flyers have a played a strong game overall. But please stop taking penalties. That's the only momentum the Wild have had in this game. They scored the PP goal, and then had a could of good shifts afterwards. Then the Flyers took the game back. They are derailing themselves with penalties.

His skating and positioning doesn't bother me nearly as much as his puck handling.

I want to see this defense with Del Zotto and MacDonald. And every defenseman in the right role.

Laughton has seen 6:36 TOI thru 2 periods, is +1, has 3 SOG, 1 takeaway, and has won 4-5 face-offs. #Flyers

How about giving him some PP time?

If they stop taking penalties, that can happen.

Was a heck of a find by Simmer on that goal, too.

I'm all for Laughton centering Lecavalier and Umberger while pushing them to be better.

14 seconds at the end of a PP. Flyers have taken 6 minor penalties. Too many. Only blemish on this game.

So that means he saw a little over 2 minutes in the second period.

He deserves the PP time before Umberger. He has shown energy every shift
