This is embarrassing to watch a team get schooled like this.

Fletcher even called them out today for doing this

Chicken or the egg?

Are the forward's not supporting the D, or are the D's not doing a great job of getting the puck out of their zone?

I think the whole team sucks in transition to O and forcing the other team to give up possession.

Why Gus is playing is really a head scratcher. Play a defensively inept dman against one of the best teams in the league last year and beat you twice already this year.

No big deal. Wasn’t even a shot on net. Just bounced off Provys stick in front and into the empty net. More concerned about it being 10 minutes in and still no shots on net for the Flyers.

If they keep passing to the Bruins, I’m blaming those white sleeves. It must be messing them up. Don’t debate me on this!

D panic at the merest whiff of pressure and the forwards are all camped out in the NZ looking for a stretch pass.

Pretty clear the "book" MTL/NYI helped write on us last year is league wide known... pressure us in our own zone and we crumble.

We don't have the quickness to compensate. Our forwards aren't quick enough to break through without momentum so they flee the zone and our dmen aren't quick enough with the puck to deal with the pressure.

Some Defense problems and a lot of forwards to high in the d zone when the dmen are facing pressure.

Agreed. So distracting. Even to the players themselves.

I asked what's wrong with this team before. Got to be honest.... when JVR is the best player on the team, that's all we need to know.

Flyers are slow in transition, they hit the neutral zone with no speed and by the time they cross the blue line the Bruins have already caught them, so they slow down and do the curl along the boards and drop it to the point where the defenseman either turn it over or they dump behind the net. That’s our transition in a nutshell!
