See how I said 3 and not 4? I'm not bold enough to say we win in MSG on saturday.

We shall see about that.

Well, yes, there is a chance they pull away even more. There's even a chance they jump ahead the rangers, who they are not far behind

Get it going all the way to a 1st round exit?

Its a shame cause he played well up until that point... Flyers defense is much better with Schenn in lineup. A lot of you dont want to admit it but he makes a difference, especially on the PK
- GOA88

I think what missing schenn proved was that he's valuable on the PK. Without him, we are epically horrible.

I know it's been discussed ad nauseum but I would simply leave Schenn10 on the top line until Raffl gets back. I've been happy with his play of late, and we've got to stop the constant shuffling. No way to create chemistry.

Precisely

Laughton is the only reason that Vinny and Umberger showed some life last night. The kid played great and should stay up. Its true... if they play like that most nights.... Mason in net... Flyers win.

That line actually looked half decent last night. I liked what I saw from laughton last night. Seems to have a little more puck skills then some believe.

B.Schenn has certainly found his game and playing with confidence. If not for a few plays that accidently hits skates/post. That top line would have scored 2-3 goals even strength with Schenn getting one of them.

When Raffl comes back we should be able to get some scoring on other lines. I'd like to see

12-28-93
10-14-24
78-49-17
18-40-36

I'd actually like to see this now and just put Akeson with Giroux and Jake until Raffl gets back. The way those two are going anyone can play there.

I was surprised. He looks good and his exactly what Vinny needed. Now put Raffl on the LW when he comes back and Umberger on the 4th and you got 3 solid lines.

I'm bummed they lost last night, but the effort and chances were there. I mean, they're not a lock to win the cup like the Rangers but I'll take it.

With and without Schenn, the Flyers have been near the top of the league in PK for multiple years leading into this one. Their struggles in the three games he was out had nothing to do with him not being there. That's not to say he is not a good PKer and valuable to have in that rotation, because he is.

Laughton moved his feet and showed some hustle which creates chances. I guess when have a player like that on your line it will help even a Zombie look some what alive ( Umberger)
There is no way Laughton should be taken out of this lineup
IMO... Much better player than RJ Hamburglar

Lets face it, they had some bad luck last night against a good team. Amazing what a little hard work can do for the tean. When they skate hard they can play with anyone.

I really was impressed by Laughton. Best game i've seen him play. Looks like he's really gotten his confidence in the A.

You have to work out of a slump somehow. Its not like your Rangers are playing all that great either. Even with the "King" in net
