Add to it how ? How are you raising the skill and speed on the team ?

When the time is right I imagine

What part of the young core are players you actually build around ?

I would add to that by saying you need to establish an identity. My preference is one that is attentive to both ends of the ice. There’s a lot of fast and skilled players and teams but you have to protect your house before attacking others, it’s true in war amd sports. Also I’d lile to see a core of players that has those things and when the chips are down can go out and leave their mark on the game. I don’t wanna see a bunch of perimeter petes lile we have now. I don’t need to see hits although they are nice but ivdo wanna see my guys impose their will on the opposition. Goals and assists are nice but you need wins. I’d rather see a bunch of 2-1 wins than 5-6 losses.

Dangerous, yes. But I do wonder if they will peter out should they advance. They are giving Tampa Bay everything they've got and it'll be interesting to see if they hit a wall.

A sweep isn't nearly as taxing as a long hard fought 7 game series would be. If they win tonight, the fact that they now get to rest a bit and didn't have to expend a lot out of the tank is huge.

How does Pierre still have a job??

He just said "Point went around all of the Tampa Bay Lightning team to score"

so they can have circle jerks while they incessantly female dog about Hagg

I agree to a point but it's actually the other way around. Attack others and then you don't have to protect your house as much. That's how the game is played these days. Puck possession and playing in the other teams end is the best way to defend.

I am not sorry that you feel that way.

Claude Giroux has scored 65 points in 69 playoff games.

most of his points were from being carried by carter and richards

Man CBJ is all over Tampa..
Its crazy.

And I'm not sorry that I think Hagg is bad

Well with all this “elite talent” we have on our first two lines you’d think we would be more competitive.

HORNQVIST AND LEHNER FIGHTING

Classy pens try to attack Lehner. (frank) what a classless organization

HORNQVIST AND LEHNER FIGHTING

Typical penguins. I remember them trying this poop in 2012 when we had them down 3 0

Lehner pulled a stunt that I accidentally did once. Start a fight while your team had a potential breakaway.

On the replay it was horny that pushed him first. Lehner gave him a shot later then it escalated

Talent is just talent. Nolan Patrick has a ton of talent but obviously he has not figured it out yet. If the Flyers are going to go anywhere, they're going to need their young players to take a bigger bite.

I stand corrected. I didn't see that.

But you can’t give him minutes until he shows that talent. Until then we need another top six center.

there's no variation. 83% female doging about Hagg. 16.5% about Hackstol(still) and .5 other....im not exaggerating

bettman is in pissburgh? the corruption is so obvious
