Another fun game tonight.

Bob has been playing like Vezina Bob. He keeps that going and you can put this one in the W column.

Knight and Lundell both playing like serious Calder candidates. I assume Knight will get enough starts to qualify this year.

Panthers scoring from all lines and all over the ice. 16 Panthers already have points this season--Barkov and Verhaeghe with 5 points, Bennett, Ekblad, Lundell, and Forsling have 4 points, Duclair, Reinhart, Huberdeau, and Marchment with 3 points in 4 games. An impressive pace for all of these guys and against top-level competition too.

I suppose Yandle will be a story line tonight, but there's no way he can keep up with the speed of this year's Panthers. With his tendency to panic in the defensive end when he faces a strong forecheck, it could be a -4 night for KY.

This is the year.
Go Panthers!

Uhhh yandle isn’t even a story line tonight lol… he’s on the third pairing for the flyers.

Panthers look like a pretty good team maybe the deepest forwards in the nhl. However once you get past the forward lines there’s a lot left to be desired. Bob (we know him well) has a streaky past and can’t seem to stay mentally sharp in big games (see his playoff numbers) outside of ekblad the defense is suspect. Coaching is still a strength.

Expect this to be a good game flyers not having Ellis makes it more interesting. I think at the end of the year we will all be quite surprised to see both these teams near the top of East standings. Let’s see who can stay healthy

We had some masterful defense work on mackinnon last game keep that up and with some more solid goaltending we should be good. Also if philly plays yandle too much it would help

A big part of the defensive improvement has been the forwards committing to helping on defense. And so far they have cut down on the foolish turnovers leading to odd man rushes against. Bob looks calm and cool, and is just focused on tracking the puck.
Let’s go Panthers!!

Despite the early success and I know,coaches don’t make lineup changes after a win but Lemberg needs to be playing

If philly could play 5 on 5 like they do when killing a penalty they woulda smoked florida. We couldnt even get in the zone on the pp

Looking for a solid performance and big game out of the Cats tonight vs Arizona.

No mercy. Just put the pedal to the metal and help Spencer put another W in the bank.

This is the year.
Go Panthers!

That would’ve been very funny. He’s gonna have to talk to Marty B to get pointers on staying sharp while just standing there watching most of the time.

This kind of goes to show how Bob got more blame then he deserved last year (not saying he was above all fault). Maybe not facing a high volume of shots, but a high percentage of them were golden opportunities. Goalie stats read right off the page can be misleading.

Bring on the Broons! The next test
