Why isn't Macdonald playing
- Winning

Vinny getting ready to go back to tampa for stamkos so he's prepping amac on how to make popcorn while collecting 4 mill a year.

Yeah...I was hoping against hope they could steal a point, but that is gonna be a steep hill to climb to even do that
- AllInForFlyers

Kill the penalty and see what happens. Flyers are likely to get at least one PP with how that's been lopsided. Score a PP goal, and then hold on. Probably the best we can hope for. Flyers were hanging on by a thread that period. They're out of gas.

Why have a player like Voracek if you gonna play him third line minutes

Flyers only attempted 8 shots in the entire period.

Like you said, they're trying, but this was just a tall, tall order

He's on the third line, therefore all minutes he plays are 3rd line minutes

This is getting beyond stupid

He and Giroux should be leading this team in ES and PP minutes every night.

Now see I'm (frank)ing furious

If that's the stars that puck rolls in
If that's the stars it's not a goalie interference penalty it's an interference penalty on us

Hakstol can't be telling himself and the fans that he's trying his best to win games if he has Voracek playing with bottom 6 players.

I agree, among forwards, and they are.

But all we have to do is trade for stamkos

Braydn Schenn should not be on a line with Giroux
If you can't get him center ice time then trade him

I applaud your tenacity, but I think we expended today's rage allotment on the Sixers earlier

Every season there are 2-3 games that really tell you where the team is at. Where the team's will is tested. This game, this period is one of them. Going into the 3rd down by a goal, on the PK, against arguably the top offensive team in the league, on the 2nd night of a back to back, with obvious fatigue setting in, and the goalie being the only reason the team is still in this.

This period could be more important than any game we've played to date.
