1 goal in 30 games for Voracek is completely ridiculous.

I look forward to seeing a list compiled of the elite forwards in the NHL that have scored 1 goal this year while playing in all their teams games.

Continuing to play with 2 checkers isn't helping, message was sent weeks ago when he moved him to that line.
Enough already.

It isn't Jake's fault. Its the line he is on, He is playing with a 4th liner and an AHLer...

I like Bellemare, but this line is driving me crazy.
I know the coach has credentials, but this is such a dumb move.

So what's gone good this year through 30 games? My top 5

1) emergence of Ghost... Funny no arguments about if he's ready or not anymore.
2) Giroux is playing a more complete game then he has in 2 years...his commitment to both ends has him ranked in the top 10 players in the world in my books.
3) Neuvirth has simply been the Flyers best goalie and is looking like a guy that can carry the mail. Great stuff.
4) Gudas playing a physical game that keeps appponent's on their toes when he's on the ice....not bad for a guy with 6-7 talent. Nice to see a guy play above his talent level ...heart and toughness.
5) not with the Flyers...but Provorov, Sanheim, Koneckny, Fazleev, Aubs-kubel and Myers are all having great years and showing growth...in major Jr. hockey. As well Morin, Leirer, Cousins, Alt and even Ghoulbourne are showing signs that they can be contributors in the near future.....more great stuff...ok enough of the kool aid!!

Yeah enough already. You don't waste elite talent buried on a line with role players. You just don't.

Put Jake on the right side with Coots/Read and drop Simmonds down to the 3rd unit. Simmonds leading the team with -13 +/1. Simmonds also gets 1st PP unit time.

Do you think Gostisbehere showed that he was ready defensively last night against a top NHL team?

Trade for Jagr. Voracek needs his Obi Wan to set him back on the right path.

he looks like a player ready for the NHL who will improve the weaknesses in his game here, not in the A

LOL, it was more than a couple of bad plays, but the entire team got shellacked last night. I wouldn't expect a rookie defenseman, who's played a handful of games to be any different. So, no it has nothing to do with waiting for a handful of shifts. Gostisbehere has had some issues in his own end since he's been up, but that's not unexpected. The good however far outweighs the bad. Gostisbehere has been pretty much what I expected. NHL caliber in skating, with the puck, and on the PP, but has some development to still do defensively. I think he's further along defensively than I thought he would be, but it looks like he is capable of handling developing that side of his game at the NHL level. He's a good player now, who is only going to get better.

I agree completely. Looks like he is capable of doing that at the NHL level.

Defensively, that team is a dumpster fire right now.
