Liked NAK s game last night. Two games in a row he didn’t back down and or leveled two of the best goons in the game. Also love how the team doesn’t let Wilson under their skin.

I know I’m on an island alone but I haven’t felt the playoff intensity yet. I feel like Boston and Washington were missing two key players, if not their best players in Rask and Carlson but it doesn’t mean I’m taking anything away from what the Flyers have done. We’re ready, they weren’t. I’ve said from the start that I expect a deep run and I still do. This doesn’t mean we’ve seen the very best from other teams and it doesn’t mean the Flyers do not have room for improvement. Power play needs adjustment. The other three lines outside of the Hayes line, they need to be better.

For those who have an issue with this prospective, these are just my thoughts and opinions.

I think you're suffering from a malady shared by many Flyers fans. It's a Pavlovian response. You've been conditioned to expect disappointment so you are looking for reasons to not believe the Flyers are good enough to win the Cup.

Stupid covid cup question. How come the flyers get last change today? Wash came ahead of them in reg season.

Flyers are the designated home team. Doesn't have anything to do with regular season records.

Sweet. So determined by Rock Paper Scissors between Bill Daly and Gary?

Sorry this is late, but there is a basis for regular season standings factoring into the six game round robin. According to the round robin schedule, it appears the top two teams, #1 Boston and #2 Tampa, each get two home games out of the three games they each play. While the bottom two teams, #3 Washington and the Flyers (4th in the East), each get one home game out of the three games they each play.

The same is the case for the west. The #1 St Louis and #2 Colorado both get two home games and one away game each, while #3 Las Vegas and #4 Dallas both get one home game and two away games each.

Beyond that, determining which game was picked as the lone Flyers home game, seemed to be a random result. I would have thought it would be the lowest placed team the Flyers play—hence Washington—but that's not exactly the case. That's because I see that #3 Washington's only home game is against #1 Boston tomorrow. If it was against the lower of the seeds, Washington's home game should have been the game against #2 Tampa that happened this past Monday, August 3rd, where they were actually the visiting team.
