i am telling you i was there and wfc was not raucous. but hey what do i know.

Seemed loud at the beginning of the game and the last part of the first period. Other than that, wasn't much to cheer about

Too young for the Spectrum?

Flyers games have been a corporate playground ever since the move to Wells Fargo.

vinny / read / schenn have been completely worthless.

and the rangers have manhandled our d-men and giroux.

i'm not one that really enjoys the whole "enforcer" thing, but could rinaldo at least make the rangers a little hesitant to beat the piss out of our best player after every whistle? FFS.

After all, that is pretty much his only job. Vorachek has easily been the Flyers' best player and Akeson is not too far behind. Nobody else seems to be aware that the series against the Rangers has started.

G's been pretty damn good...

G was not good Game 1, but Game 2 and 3 he's been as good as he can without taking his game to another level yet seen. He's had to deal with cheap shots and tight checking. If he can somehow overcome this and take over the series that would obviously be very good for the good guys.

i don't think anyone had a particularly good game in game 1. losing last night was huge. we certainly didn't deserve to lose 4-1.

Through orange glasses I would say we outplayed the Rangers, but they hit almost every good chance they had where we did not and had another billion shots blocked. I'm not on the Good Ship Surrender like some may be, and I don't think it's out of the question to win it in 6.

the fluke save on hartnell sucked, but the stick handle save was ridiculous. hartnell must have tortured some kittens or something to deserve that kind of bad luck.

(not hyperbole)

He blocked G's two best shots on Sunday so it was karma or swarma or something.

definitely kitten torture.

game should be tonight sicadis

An extra day for the Rangers to think about the pummeling they are going to get tomorrow night. I would like to see someone teach McDonagh a lesson about what happens when you treat our star thusly.

Would sit Rinaldo for him.

#Flyers re-called Scott Laughton today from OHL Oshawa (has NHL experience) but Berube says he will not play in Game 4.

No risk too:

At least until we get to the ECF

Play him then ffs

Take out Rinaldo or Raffl. I like Raffl a lot but he's been a dud in the postseason.

Anyone hear anything about Laughton getting into the lineup? I feel no news is not necessarily good news at this point.

Berube said he isn't playing in game 4, so I can't imagine they would make a game 5 announcement at this point.

I stopped reading your original tweet after Laughton was called up and immediately searched for how it does/doesn't affect his ELC, mea culpa.

He is practicing today though, so I think if Rinaldo is worthless tonight that he could start on Sunday.

He's going to get a bad penalty I think. He's been a non-factor, so I think he's going to come up a bit over amped and just board/charge someone.
