It's playoff hockey. Isles make the Flyers pay for every space. Flyers give the Isles too much space. Flyers need to compete harder in board battles.

I find we lose an inordinate amount of board battles tbh.

It's not a matter of competing harder, it's reacting more quickly.

especially in their own zone.

- FlyerGuy


Being quicker would certainly help but that doesn't change that the Flyers have been losing the majority of puck battles.

Don't you love their 4th line constantly outplaying and outhitting us? Martin and Clutterbuck have been making play after play. Czikas undressed #15 and draws a penalty.

Best 4th line in hockey. Hands down

Hmm, Im not sure Lindblom is ready to take a reg shift in OT.

But I hope he gets the winner.

Nah.

You ever been in a GameStop and some guy in a huge winter jacket is there asking everyone what they’re looking for even though he doesn’t work there?

the Isles have probably won more puck battles, to be sure ... but they've been WAY faster to react to loose pucks than the Flyers.

having said that, it's OT ... let's go boys. Force a game 7.

Let's be honest, Islanders 4th line wins it in OT.

By far the best fourth line in hockey over a period of years.

You can't have ambiguities in your prediction!

Here's mine: Somebody will score. It will win their team the game.

That's better. He can score it by getting it stuck in his butt and a fart propels it in for all I care. A goal is a goal is a goal.
