LOL. It's as if Simmonds is the only player who played poorly and has been playing poorly. It's a broken record. What did Giroux do tonight? Simmonds has been routinely scapegoated.
- MJL

No one blamed him for this loss...

We pointed out how bad he's looked this year, just like we're saying with most of these guys. Provy, Ghost, Jake, JVR. Take your pick.

Any offensive threat the Flyers had Giroux was pretty much on the ice except for some chances Voracek created out there. Simmonds did nothing at all tonight in the o zone.

The rest of the team was fantastic. Simmonds cost them the game.

He's been pretty edgy recently and the studio group has ripped this roster. I think the broadcast crew knows the time to put lipstick on this pig is over

Yeah I’ve never seen Jackson this irritated before. But then again if I had to work a game like what I’ve just seen I’d be irritated as hell too.

Ok updated counter, around 24 more points to lose until they have to win all games to make playoffs.
- Glak18

I have it at 21. I'm assuming 95 points = playoffs

You only name other players when pressed. Simmonds is the default scapegoat. It is absurd to watch that game and harp on one player.

I think the Flyers brass had it right about JVR the first time he was here.

A soft player.
- StepfordSam

Yeah I really don't understand why they made the call to bring him back. The main reason he signed here was for his family and Flyers offered the money. I doubt he even talked to other teams.

4 point game tomorrow night. Could be huge

What about OT loser points?

Ovi with at least a hat trick. Even with knowing where he'll be the Flyers won't do it.

Not what im saying buddy. Just stating that the guy looks terrible night in and night out in the last 20 games or so. You saying Giroux did nothing is irrelevant when he was apart of creating the majority of the scoring chances the team had tonight.

ok.

I come here day in and out and talk about just about everyone on this team needing to be better. But ok. I made a comment you didn't like about Simmonds. Understood.

Team loss tonight. Just like all the others. Simmonds looked like crap. They all looked like crap.

JVR on the team last year ok I can understand the signing. JVR on this years team not a good fit at all.

This team is so frustrating watch they'll find a way to beat the champs on a back to back.

What about OT loser points?
- Glak18

Points are points for this depressing word problem.

They have 36 points. To get 95 points they need 59 more. There are 80 points available. 80-59=21

ok.

I find it funny how end of game Simmonds comments triggered him even though there are pages of me bashing the 3rd and 4th line all game

Didn't even realize they were playing tomm night too. Gotta imagine with the effort tonight and it being a back to back McKenna probably gets lit up like a Christmas tree haha

JVR on the team last year ok I can understand the signing. JVR on this years team not a good fit at all.

But yet the roster didn't change huge from last year. So I'm not sure why it's bad other than hindsight.

If it wasn’t for Taryn, this would be worse than the season that won’t be named.

He’s not your buddy. He’s an a-hole.

no, they're on their way to another 10 game losing streak.

Because, imho, he's not as good as people make him out to be. He needs the puck served on a platter to score his goals. And he's absolutely useless otherwise.

Giroux didn't come close to scoring and goal or setting one up. He did not play a good game along with pretty much the entire forward corps.

Look! I was trying to make it seem brighter and now you have to bring logical equations into it...

Fine...21 freakin' points, happy! They will be officially out by 2nd week in Feb.
