That’s the game!
Awful how these guys can’t move the puck out even when not under pressure.

- Buzzo


The breakouts from the defensive zone have been atrocious. I understand the Isles play a high pressure game, but the Flyers need to adjust and haven't. They also lack creativity in the offensive zone and make it too easy for the Isles to transition from defense to offense.

Guess it's better luck next year again. 45 years and counting...

This reminds me so much of watching the flyers playing NJ in the playoffs in the early 90’s. Boring hockey.

For the most part, that was men against boys.

So, yeah, this is similar!

TK looks like he’s thinking too much out there when we enter the Isle’s zone. Just get the puck on goal and drive the net!!

A 23 year old teammate was literally fighting for his life, and his teammates half ass it the entire series with him watching. That truly is something.

If I saw an 8 year old do that I'd be disgusted.
- PLindbergh31


They were saying he tried to high flip it out of the zone and didn't get enough under it.

The flyers forward dman gaps have been terrible . The forwards are way to high in the zone.
Then when there are board battles they lose them.
That and they aren’t winning face offs like they were on season.

I count twice with offensive pressure where you gotta shoot and they decided to make a move that ruined everything.
