(frank) it. At least we have that beautiful Gritty painting. But burn those awful retro jerseys. Is the league making them wear them a certain number of games.
- Bendecko


I kind of like them, but not a fan of the dark orange. Looks too much like red. Needs to be classic Flyers orange.

(frank)in brutal officiating and stupid penalties
- Dave21Brown


Just a horrible collapse aided by refs deciding to omit some calls on the bruins and call everything on the flyers. Doesn’t look like we can handle Boston this year, that’s for sure.

Brutal....but stupid hockey gets you that...make no mistake...that’s dumb hockey. All 3 penalties are legit...that’s how they are calling it....AND ALL THREE DIDN’T PREVENT A GOAL.

If you think that Hayes call was legit you are a joke , especially the way they were calling the game

But they aren’t calling it that way. I could count on two hands how many hooks or holds Bruins got away with just in the 3rd alone. It’s a joke. They wait until the final 5 mins of the game to call soft ass calls.

But nothing. It was the right call
- SuperSchennBros


Sure if they called every penalty. They let a lot slide in this game. Its like in OT where the Refs put their whistles away, that was a call where the whistle should have been put away. Laughton should be taken out back and get put down for that

I don’t agree, the flyers took over the game and blew it. They need to learn from it and play the whole game the right way Friday

Why with the white sleeves? Might as well cut the sleeves off and just expose the elbow/wrist pads.

This team SUCKS! There is no other way to say it. This game should have been wrapped up at 3-1. The Flyers were skating and controlling play, getting good o-zone time in the 3rd, and then all of sudden became LAZY and started taking STUPID penalties. I would bench Hayes next game, because that STUPID penalty he took is inexcusable! He would rather clutch Marchand versus just taking ONE simple stride. The Flyers just don't want to skate for 60 minutes, there is something systemic on this team and I don't think it can be fixed, I really don't.

OH .. and The Bruins scored 4 goals tonight, 3 by Pastrnak and 1 by Bergeron; all scored on their top line, just like I said they would if the Flyers couldn't shut them down, and of course the Flyers can't because they decide to stop skating and take STUPID penalties!

That could have gone better.

Getting an insurance goal when Bruins pulled Rask probably would have been a different outcome. Need to close out better.

Yes but the Hold was weak and with 7 seconds left theres no reason to make that interference call
- xShoot4WarAmpsx



There’s no reason to interfere with the guy...the hold was just as weak as the one on Boston just before it. Just stupid hockey. All three penalties were just stupid plays.

Maybe learn to kill a penalty? Yet another game where they were not ready to play...bad D and undisciplined...this team has a ton of work to do between now and the post season...if they make it that is.

I'm sorry, but I have ZERO confidence they will ever learn from this .. they just can't play 60 minutes and against a team like Boston as you saw tonight, that is NOT good enough.

Let the players decide the game, the officials did not let them do that tonight.

To be fair, the Bruins executed perfectly on the 1st Pasta PPG and the Bergeron goal. The 2nd Pasta PP goal was a lucky (frank)ing bounce after some great shot blocking by the Flyers.

And again, how many failed clearing attempts? 20, 30 .. 50!! I have never seen a team be so inept at doing a simple thing like flipping a puck out of your zone and getting pucks deep as this team. Somehow they think they can shoot the puck through the other teams players instead of over them or by them.

What are you watching?..that’s the way they call this wussy game now...they just called one on Boston before...that was just as weak. You can’t put your stick on a guy like that anymore...I don’t like it but that’s the new NHL at its finest.

Flyers responded well after the 1st, played well enough to win. Really too bad about the NAK and Hayes penalties. The Refs let the Bruins back into the game. Laughton's was deserved, and the Bruins get credit for capitalizing big time.

That Hayes call was NOT a joke, it was a good call. He stopped skating and decided we would just grab Marchand instead, at a time in the game that is just inexcusable. I would bench him, you have make it clear even to veterans that those types of STUPID plays will not be tolerated on this team.

They frankly should have two wins against Boston if they knew how to protect 2 goal leads. When is Coots coming back?

How come Marchand gets away with the same thing against Hayes no more than 3 mins prior?
