This is my first time watchithem and the #'s are tripping me up. York 8? Allison 17? Cates 27? Just preseason shenanigans?

And he isnt playing tonight, but Andrae is wearing 36. In my mind that is still Zac Rinaldo lol

I don't believe they have placed Zamula on waivers. His contract is one way. Which has nothing to do with waivers. To my knowledge, the Flyers haven't waived anyone. They've assigned a number of players from training camp back to the minors or to juniors.

He is no longer waiver exempt. Pretty simple

Both PP have looked decent despite not scoring. At least they are getting set up and creating chances.

Also playing a very weak lineup. Still a lot of passing with a bunch of stationary players. Better than last year at least

I like Sanheim on that PP
- Dkos


I like that he jumped into the play the way he did. When he’s using his skating he becomes a good d man. I also like that he’s bulked up a bit. I’m not sure they don’t have better alternatives on the PP then him, but it sure would be nice to become more offensive.

The Bruins PK, even with the AHL players, are giving a clinic on how to kill a PP, back pressuring the first player up the ice, keeping pucks to the outside by cutting off cross-ice passes and blocking shots from up top. The Flyers should review the tape from this game and teach their players how to kill a PP!

Barely, Foerster does not belong on the half wall, Brink belongs there with Foerster in the bumper for a 1 timer. Also, Risto has got to get his point shots through and on net. I have not liked the Flyers PP this entire pre-season, bad zone entries (except Tippet), too many passes and not enough good shots generated.

but that is what happens when you have a strong check, you generate quick chances that surprise the opposing goalie.
