That entire line has not finished. Yet coming into this game, Laughton leads all forwards in scoring chances with 41 and Lindblom is second with 40.

Funny thing is, JvR in my opinion looks like the best player on the line. He’s the one generating offense. Making plays. Driving to the net.

But you still have to score. Which Lindblom looks like the least likely to do so.

So when you can’t score it’s good?

He’s been around it but at the end of the day you need to be able to score, his hot start 3 years ago now holds no weight.

Which illustrates clearly the kid can't finish!!

I think Lindblom is doing fine just not burying his chances, but if you remember back a few years when he was breaking into the league that was also his issue. Eventually he started actually scoring.

I would like to think that all of us want the best for him and from him.

Nope, when you're generating scoring chances and carrying play, the lack of scoring will change. It's the opposite that is the issue which is the case with the 2nd line. All season they were getting outplayed and outshot. They were just hot shooting early which is not likely to last.

That's not a logical statement.

Unreal we didn’t score on that play

perfect example JVR just shoot the F***NG puck!!!!

Lindblom just made a good play but I’ve seen very little of that this season. I don’t think he’s carrying play at all.

That's not a logical statement.

Maybe not to you. You just stated he is leading the team in scoring chances, but yet he has not finished one of them, what does that tell you?

Ten Four. No disagreement.

No, I stated he is 2nd on the team in scoring chances. He has shown in the past that he has finishing ability. Have you ever heard of players having goal droughts? Ever in your experience as a fan? Player with far more goal scoring ability than Lindblom go through them as well.

They really need to change the lines up. Especially that 2nd line. Lindblom will get his. It's a long season.
- MJL

The center depth is so weak right now it’s hard to do much but they certainly should shuffle some things around. They are a one line team right now.

Thanks for explaining this to me. Here I’ve been thinking the point was to score more goals than the other team.

At this point, the Flyers should just go into lockdown mode. I really don't want them letting up odd man rushes or stupid line changes. Just lock it down boys and get the win in regulation!

In other words, the prevent defense?

Freak'n JVR, had the entire top part of the net and passed the puck, dope!

Obviously I didn't do a good job of explaining it. Or maybe it's something else.

I’m just cranky. Long day. poopty game.

I really don't want to see Yandle and Seeler out there for the rest of the game!

The Yotes have Beagle on their team. Please, don't anyone tell Anthony Fauci about it. He has some sand flies that might be interested.

I would advocate for keeping the attack up. The yotes are liable to give up an off man rush or two.
