So.......close a healthy line up! It’s not even that Konency isn’t back but Braun is back and the two Ghost’s had a good game and Myers was just a little off, we get know Myers.

Scratching Meyers is absolutely ridiculous, let the kid play through his rough patches. I don’t need the corpse of Justin Braun on the ice, it literally looks like the guy is fighting for his life on some shifts

Yea, Braun could be rusty and really off

I'm going first wait and see if Myers is scratched. I agree with letting him play through it but I also don't have a major issue if he is scratched. Vigneault has already scratched Konecny. Myers struggles in certain areas is not really surprising. They're asking an awful lot of him.

I don't have as much of an issue with Braun as others do. Braun will give you everything he has, every game. He still defends well in coverage, in puck battles and has a good stick. He's limited in mobility but uses his experience to mitigate that. Other players such as Haag are not playing as well as they can or are capable of. That's the more culpable player in my view.

That COVID line looks pretty good. Short shifts boys.

Who wants to smell my finger?

Yeah I can see that with Meyers. Maybe some ill advised pinching. Has been getting beat lately. Hasn't lead to any goals against with that long stick reach but I could see the reasoning behind it. Maybe a break is in order. I agree with MJL, they have been asking a lot of him lately.

Still waiting for that self-proclaimed, offensive defenseman Travis Sanheim to show up. As if getting drafted and actually becoming a mainstay on the second pairing of a huge market nhl team wasnt enough.

I wouldn’t be as ticked off if 3 of our Dmen that play weren’t subpar players majority of the time

I’m not a Hagg hater as most know, but he would be deserving to sit. The two Ghosts had a solid game a piece two nights ago, but there is more to dislike about Gustafsson’s game, than to like most nights.

Giving credit where he belongs, Gostisbehere still isn’t great defensively but he’s playing very well overall. I wish he would learn to stay on his skates when defending an odd man rush though.

Wisdom is killing it.

I didn't realize that the NHL's divisions have corporate sponsors.

Real classy.

I'm sure it's only temporary.

I wish someone would revive the WHA!

5th of the season. Looking good. Hopefully he can keep it up.

I can’t believe I’m cheering for the rangers right now...

Edit

And the Rangers have fans there

In my opinion, if Mattias Ekholm is a real option to pick up, the Flyers should be in serious talks for him. I think he’s automatically an upgrade in our top 4, which is very much a need. A top four of Provorov, Sanheim, Myers and Ekholm should excite the fans. I don’t know what goes the other way but Ghost has played well and I think would be fine next to any one of Braun or Hagg. Gus really is my guy who I’m not interested in seeing play outside of the power play.

Drew Doughty is such a wasted talent in LA right now. Dustin Brown is killing it at age 36. Kopitar doing very well.

What happened to Quick?

Jeff Carter...woff!

5 goals and 6 points in 6 games. Pretty impressive.

Boston just getting hammered again, maybe they should blow it up, trade everyone

This kid is looking like a late round gem!
Kudos to Chuck
This is the exact type of player that the flyers are missing (beside the top 2D man, of course)
