    This f'n team.
    Last year: couldnt score but goaltending was great.
    This year: scoring but the goaltending stinks and the defense is a hot mess.
    Never ends. Something has to change in the core group on this team.

    no it doesn't. the talent is there this year. just need to figure out the right mix of aggressive offense and good D. tighten it up and be more solid is what they need. they will come around.
    They dont need to figure out good D, they need good D-men. And a goalie who can stop the puck and not a back-breaking soft goal almost every game.
    This group has been together for awhile now. Bubble playoff team. Coaches have come and gone.
    Mason and Neuvirth are not getting it done this season and when they did last year, no one else helped.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Ridiculous schedule the Flyers have had so far, several back to back games already.
    Tonight they get the Canadians, fresh off a 10-0 loss to Columbus. Montoya was in net for all ten goals against.
    They live and die with Price, tonight will be a much different game.

    I think they're ripe for the picking, actually. That loss against CBJ (ok, maybe not a 10-0 loss) was in the cards for a few games now. Habbies getting more and more like their old selves. Was fun while it lasted!

    Goalies have been bad this year...let this team down yet again.

    Montreals a good team, plenty of talent...

    Except 3 things about Montreal I do not like, their coach, leaving a goalie in for 10 goals is total bush league, I do not like Markov and I would have shipped him off and went with the 18 year old defensman from Windsor and took my chances, and their Captain...trade him.

    Philadelphia played well tonight, good game, any other goalie in net and Philadelphia wins...

    and to think a portion of the fan base and media didn't like this guy. he was a stud. best i've ever seen in the orange and black. too bad Clarkie thought goaltending wasn't important and didn't like McCrimmon asking for a new contract.

    Congrats to Lindros(and Pat Quinn) on the Hall of Fame induction. Great gesture inviting his brother up there to share in the moment at the end.

    i haven't seen much of them recently but they are playing well. Again Mason has really picked it up when Neuvirth is out.

    Only saw the 3rd & the OT, but Mason won this game, as Florida dominated. Think he made 42 saves tonight.

    6 in a row.
    Mason, Simmonds and Provorov have been stellar during this run.
    Provorov has completely turned it around and i looking like the stud player that many believe he can become.

    Winning streak is nice but I'm still not a Mason fan. If I was hextall I'd be shopping him hard right now -- Neuvirth and Mason both free agents at the end of the year. Trade whoever you can get something for. Mason is hot right now so take what you can get. This team isn't winning anything and I think Neuvirth is better.

    Good to see them winning some games though. Hakstol is proving to be a great coach. This roster really isn't that good and he's still keeping them competitive.

    Provorov = Russian Brian Leetch. He's legit

    Neuvirth can never stay healthy. Never.
    Mason plays great when he gets the majority of the work load.
    I dont see Neuvirth being here next year. Stolarz will be the backup.
