They have perfected the finely honed skill of shooting right into the goaltenders stomach.

small sample size

I once downed a bottle of Makers, drove 90mph against the traffic on the freeway, with my car 20k miles past due for an oil change, was eating and texting while driving, and didn't have my seat belt on the whole time.

Got home just fine, tyvm. #suckitstats

Not that freak Holtby
- Streit2ThePoint


Let me change that to all Flyers goalies have them.

I agree that Holtby is amazingly consistent. I see a lot of talk about about Mason getting $6m a year, but he hasn't strung together the quality of performances Holtby has so I don't think the price will be that high, or that Hextall should pay it. Holtby was an RFA when he signed his deal but it covers mostly UFA years so I think it's still a decent comparison.

Did the expansion Flyers have players like Giroux/Voracek or a defenseman like Gostisbehere? Two bonafide NHL starters in Mason and Neuvirth?

You make it sound like they're on par with the 92/93 Senators.

If Mason had that kind of game in goal last night this thread would be 200 posts long already.

if Umberger had missed that wide open net like Read did, there'd be 200 more

He didn't miss the net, he just Carter'd it.

I saw the '06 - '07 Flyers team, up close.

This team is the '98 Red Wings compared to that team.

Did you follow them in 06/07 or the early 90s? Those teams were far worse.
