AZ’s bullpen has been strong and we haven’t changed strategy from the last game by trying to draw walks move runners over, steal bases…etc.

Outside of game 4, I thought the bullpen did a decent job. The bats went cold despite plenty of chances…that was the difference. Relying on the HR to generate all your offense was the downfall once the series got tight. It stinks, but congrats to AZ.

Gotta imagine Manfred and the TBS execs aren’t exactly thrilled with a Rangers/D-Backs WS.

Yep! Sadly we have no strategy unless we come up with the big homerun. What a letdown this was. Topper refusing to make changes hurt as well.

I kinda got the sense that if they didn’t jump out early to get a lead and put pressure on the other team like they’ve done for most of the postseason, it was going to be a struggle.

The Sillies don't know how to manufacture runs. If they don't hit homeruns they are lost. The Dbacks schooled them on old school baseball the last two games. To quote Terry Murray all those years ago...it's a choking situation! I guess Brycie can go count all his money at his house in Tennessee. He loves Philly so much that he doesn't even live there...fraud!

This just in. The Flyers PP just may be the worst that I have EVER seen at the NHL level. No wonder it's operating at a whopping 5% clip. The other teams just meet them at the blueline and then pressure them. No one to carry the puck into the zone and no one to QB from the backend. Atrocious!

Zamula got embarrassed. Whatever happened to defensemen taking the body instead of getting hypnotized by the puck?

Don’t think the Flyers have had a legitimate scoring chance since about 10 minutes into the second period.

They played a helluva game. Sat back too much until Vegas tied it. Flyers outworked them the first 30 minutes. Torts has to be happy with that effort.

There was never an expectation from me that they'd win or even get points. I only watched until the end of the 2nd and LV were starting to take over. Good effort especially by Hart to not get embarrassed, but Vegas are too strong.

Statistically seems to be an evenly played game. They played the defending cup champs on the road and didn't get blown out.

The games that I have watched so far, the team seems to be playing better than last year. Better PK, not just holding on for dear life and praying to get to the third winning 2-1 then block shots for 20 mins. They seem to be trading chances reasonably well but they do lack finish. I think having coots back really makes a huge difference. For many years, if he was out, we had zero chance. He does a lot of small things well that not everyone sees. Still, with out high end skill and any semblance of a PP, we're not going to win that many games.
