Bill Meltzer: Flyers ECSF Gameday: Game 7 vs. NYI (9/5/20)

What is the Flyers xWF% (expected win for percentage) tonight?

Let's go Flyers. This is either the last game of the year or the best game of the year.

Thank you, Bill

I fee like the Flyers need to come out hitting hard and often. Do you think we will see more of that or more of a sit back type play tonight??

I miss when they would announce the scratches at the start of the game. Now when there's someone new in the lineup from the game before, it takes me half a period to figure out who's not in the lineup.

Was just watching the replay of the OT goal from game 6. Raffl was setting up a screen and got dumped, came straight down hard. Any word on if he was injured/ "unable to play?"

Didn't see...but did Coots play another shift after the Barzal collision? Did Farabee stay in Game 5?

Not likely to happen unless there are more injuries.

Haha that means we have to get score on at least three times tho

Nate Thompson with the short-handed goal in OT for the win.

Should be another game where NYI dictates the play and the Flyers counterpunch (as they can't match the speed and finesse of the opp). Do it successfully and keep the mistakes to a minimum and they can win it.

4-2 Isles.

Its 0.314.

In the next 10000 game 7s, they will win 3140 of them when they are dominated to this extent.

If Raffl cannot play, that's a very bad thing. He sets the best screens and manages to get very close to goalie. Our other guys dont set themselves so close, they tend to hover a little further out and goalie can peek around them.

DO IT.

Do it for GRITTY.

Do NOT let GRITTY down.

Oh my god, I’ll lose my poop if we go to OT with these guys again.

It’s not a matter who sets the best screens but setting up a screen at all. Apart of this is on the coaching staff for not putting a body in front of the net on the first PP unit from the very start. Raffl getting hurt or scratching JvR and Lindblom recovering from cancer doesn’t help because these are the guys who do this stuff.

3-2 philly tonight.
