The Flyers come out stronger in the second. I'm feeling good about this game. We need some faith here.

Ahh, now I remember why I avoid this place during games like a bloody Haitian prostitute on a hot and muggy day

why doesn't lavi send out a goon to rough the devils up his current game plan blows

Im not at practice or in the locker room but it looks like the Flyers have made no adjustments to what the Devils are doing and that is very frustrating to watch as a fan so I can only imagine how the players feel.

What trap? This Devils team doesn't trap.
- MJL

there new trap, keep it against the boards all the way down and around the net.

in the beginning of the game they did. clogged the middle, blocked the first 3 or 4 attempts at going up ice. after that they've had the puck the whole time.
- hammarby31

Every team plays a trap or a similar neutral zone system, such as behind a line change when they can't get in on the forecheck, in certain situations. But this Devils team isn't coached by Jacques Lemaire anymore.

I will say this.

This place is as chaotic and panicked as the Flyers right now.

lavi in the locker room

carle you suck just don't bother
bryzgalov at least you tried
giroux welcome back
schenn were you even playing?

I will say this.

at least we're showing some emotion

Just be ready with the "We Win" sign please.
- rockychocbill

the good news is that the flyers are clearly capable of scoring on brodeur. the problem is they rarely have the puck, and can't get out of their end. they really have very little chance of winning if the tempo/style of play doesn't change starting at the start of the 2nd period. eventually the devils will cash in.

There is no debate. If you know what a trap is, you know the Devils aren't a trapping team anymore.

Please email P. McGuire with your thoughts. Maybe the two of you can have a lengthy discussion on the topic and spare the rest of us.

its very obvious what they are doing, there muscling the puck from there zone along the boards all the way down behind our net..its design

Clear!



Maybe this guy can help the Flyers find some heart to play with.

I will say this.

These are the type of threads you go back read and ROFLMAO as you read it.

jonathan quick 14 goals in 9 games

yup bryzgalov is a good goalie

Well the panic has set in. Overreactions and scapegoating players. Hopefully the Flyers players and Coaches are far more composed then it's fan base right now.

- stveshdy

the only adjustment they need to make is in their compete level. it's not a tactical thing. it's effort, skating, and being physical.

JVR, learn to D.

And if Carle thinks he's getting a big payday this off-season, he isn't helping himself this series.

No one is forcing you to read it.

as bad as the Flyers have been playing, if they win today the series is tied at 2, we are tied at 2 in this game. but with that said, they start playing hockey again they will win, if they continue this lazy dumb hockey they will be toast

Flyers need to get more physical right now. The score is tied and the Devils controlled that period but the game is still anybody's.

- hammarby31

Exactly.

To me it is quite simple...this team is incapable of playing 60 minutes...havent been able to in a couple years...one complete effort in 9 games...they ain't winning poop till that changes

Well the panic has set in. Overreactions and scapegoating players. Hopefully the Flyers players and Coaches are far more composed then it's fan base right now.
