How many accounts are you running today? I saw Furio16 respond to himself this morning. I assume he meant to reply to the hello it’s me account.

Noah Cates getting lauded for his defense while he's got the worst CF% of any regular is interesting.

Is Cates' defense going to get less praise when Hart SV% inevitably drops below 94%?

- Feanor

can you explain CF%? thanks for your time.

This is fun to watch? Getting caved in all night so Hart has to stand on his head?

Puzzling.

- StepfordSam
It's called winning. Whenever a team wins they will be considered fun to watch by some folks. I mean, it looked like Florida was on a 10 minute PP for the last 10 minutes of the game, but Hart stands on his head and makes everything come up roses. The funny part to me is that Hart wasn't even one of the 3 stars of the game. Eh what?

I don't think he can count to three. Literally, if you're 4 on 4, and you see three of your side with three on the other side that means someone is wide open.

I get he is dynamic with the puck and something we haven't had in a while. Maybe his offense makes up for his glaring holes defending. I think I can live with that. The thing about him that irks me is he is a total punk on the ice after the whistles. Saw it last night, throwing punches over the refs. I like the scrums after the whistles, protecting your keeper. But don't be a tool; and he's a tool.

Lot of moments like this in the early season for him.

If he had less competitive fire, and wasn't producing on the PP, Torts would have shot him at the moon already.

Early on we're seeing that Tortorella is non discriminatory with his ice time and benching players. He is strict with his non-negotiables. LOL

Where is the accountability the coach speaks of with players?

It's ugly and unsustainable but I'm enjoying the winning thus far.

Also, the benching seemed to work.

look at the first 2 stars of the game....Torts is a smart coach look what that benching did!!

Frostsky with a slow night minutes wise. How embarrassing to be outscored by Zac so far on the season. Poor kid probably needs a hug. Allison 5 minutes.

- hello it's me 2050

Maybe they are both hurt?

Yeah it’s just so unbearable to see a player on the flyers for once not let people to free hacks at the star goalie and have absolutely 0 fire or passion. Just so awful. Damn you Tony d for looking like you care and not being a vanilla spineless jelly

Absolutely it is. I can’t believe they directed 100 plus shots on net and we won. First period a few
Times I had to count players to be sure we weren’t on the pk. We were hemmed in like crazy. Very reminiscent of early games last year. Goalie stands on head. We get one shot and it’s in. I almost think the other goalies get iced and we take advantage. Clever strategy.

Only bright spot so far is the play of hart. Unfortunately, he won’t be able to keep this up all year and his stats will likely take a hit. People have to understand that this doesn’t mean he’s lost his game and is no longer a good nhl starter. It means he has a terrible team in front of him.

Was just going to say that. I didn’t understand the benching and still don’t. Tk has been solid all year. He’s a different player than last year imo.

He stepped up big after G left. He's continued it into the season so far.

If he keeps this up, a lot of people are gonna have to eat crow.

Hopefully McEwen will keep having pucks hit his stick and go in. Him and Sedlak are valuable. Shot attempts 20-2 in favor of Florida at 5 on 5 with McEwen on the ice. Keep playing him John
