Provorov and Gostisbehere are awful. They fumbled and bumbled this game away. Are we at the point where we think about Laughton as a savior? He's not. Sickening!

Laughton will at least allow G to go back to wing.

I like Farabee and have no doubt he will be a good flyer but he does not need to be on the ice in the last 4 minutes of this game. Not with the way he's struggling to win battles and make plays right now.

Honestly, I lost interest in the second. Barely looked at the game in the third. If the team isn’t interested in playing how am I supposed to be interested in watching them? (frank) them

I hope they didn't look past the Sens based on a couple shootout wins.

They're still only an upper-mediocre team at best.

I don’t think anyone really stood out. Team loss for sure.

This place is so predictable.

Sucks that the Flyers are on such a bad losing streak right now.

They haven't gotten points in what six games?

Total failure so far.

Not so sure Jake is a good fit for how AV wants the team to play.

It’s a shame because I really love Jake. And he is an extremely high character guy. But the over the last year and the beginning of this year? Yikes.

Over 82 games losses happen. Even bad ones. But this one is frustrating. They lost to a bad team.

Buuuut, don’t dwell on it. Find a way to beat the Isles tomorrow. I have a feeling they will be inspired after this dud.

It’s not that they lost but they were not mentally in the game. After they scored early it seems like they expected an easy game.
Lots of cheating out of the zone. Lots of coasting. Lots of standing around. Poor puck support.

Consider the Sens hit what 4-5 posts as well.

Yeah...even the best teams, of which the Flyers are not yet, have off nights.

If they lose tomorrow then its 3 games with a loss and then Im worried a bit.

The damn backwards slingshot pass on the PP has got to go. Ghost did it at least 5 times tonight. Brings any momentum to a screeching halt while everyone stands still in the neutral zone.

I agree Schenn now is an upgrade on Farabee, of course i think he was a good player here and is even better now.Im just saying Schenn took a lot of nights off and was frustrating to watch at times.You knew he had another gear.I remember him vs the caps in the playoffs. He was physical, was involved, you noticed him all the time he was on the ice. Unfortunately that Schenn didnt show up too many nights in the regular season. So thats why he was expendable. Lets both hope Farabee and Frost are contributing in a yr or 2.Cheers

I think you're wrong about why he was traded. he was traded simply because the return was too good to turn down.

LOL That's the entire idea of the slingshot play. Have the defense driven back and stationary while the slingshot puck carrier gathers speed.

One day this team will not miss the net with the majority of their shots. One day they won't give the puck away at center ice until that day they will not win consistently. That day is not today.

Flyers need to take advantage of opportunities to clear the puck. Their continued stick handling and poor passing in tight situations today are big red flags
