I think so. Looks like one of those new Droid Razrs. That's just what I can tell visually; my ears begin to bleed profusely during the commercial itself, so hearing anything becomes impossible.

That is the thing that pisses me off the most. Going into this series he was the question mark. The rest of the team was not.

From what I have seen is this series, it's like watching a 5 man shootout vs Bryz.

If anything, I'm seeing it as a huge coaching problem. The dump-and-chase clearly doesn't work against Brodeur. So, why do they keep trying it, especially with an empty net?! At what point do you realize that you're not going to win using that approach and change it up?

[–]GramGuy 1 point2 points ago

pissed me off the whole game. Gain the blue line and cut to the middle or hit the breaks. If we worked the side boards and points (like the devils did), the game would have been much different. This game was so bad I started counting turnovers on dump ins versus alternate rushes. Almost every time we didn't dump and try and work a cycle it was at least a shot on net and about half of the time is was a scoring chance. Why can't laviolette see this. We obviously need to adapt.

[–]PigPen220 0 points1 point ago

That's exactly this team's problem. Game 4 and they still aren't adapting.

[–]_rapunzel_ 1 point2 points ago

I've never been a fan of the dump-and-chase method but frankly I'm not sure the team can be trusted bringing in to the zone any other way at this point...

[–]PSUProud 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They don't have any Dmen that can handle the puck. Mez and Pronger were the only two. Makes it tough to get the puck out of our zone cleanly. Thus when we do get it out, the Devils are already prepared to stop us from entering their zone.

[–]thecasio 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

i didnt feel like they were dumping and chasing this game. they couldnt get the puck deep in the zone at all...and on the few times they did, they lost every puck battle. they spent too much time making neutral zone passes that either got broken up or mishandled. Then, when they got in past the blue line, they would get neutralized on the boards.

bottom line is, what ever we are doing, the devils have had us figured out and we haven't changed anything.

Random question: why does it seem like so many goalies have numbers in the 30s?

[–]rockerlkj[S] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They just do, the same way you usually see D men with numbers in the forties or twenties. I really don't know why though.

I do know that 1 and 30 were always goalie numbers. You'd very rarely see a skater in them numbers.

[–]weenus 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Originally players were given specific numbers based off positions. I believe the goalies were #1, and then backup goalies were in the #30's.

[–]bramblepuss 2 points3 points ago

That's on Carle, who was up with Kovalchuk at the blue line. Depended on Coots to clear the point.

Don't mean to be on Carle so much, but he's gotta stop making stupid ass mistakes that lead to goals allowed.

[–]mattmicko 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I disagree the Flyers have collapsed in front of their net so much that the points are wide open and the Devils have plenty of time to move the puck wherever they damn well please.

[–]EryxEvil 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I fully agree with you, it seems like everytime there is a bad defensive breakdown that leads to a goal you see Carle very close to the player that scored. I know alot of people say hes a damn good d-man, im not seeing it though.

[–]bramblepuss 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The argument I've heard is that statistically and technically, he's a good young defenseman. But, they don't have a statistic yet for "crucial breakdowns that directly lead to a goal". Because Carle would lead the team in that category.

[–]EryxEvil 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Im thinking he might lead the league in that catagory.

[–]bramblepuss 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Exactly. And it'll be really frustrating if they resign him and make him the highest-paid defenseman on the team next year. I don't wanna get stuck with this fucking guy.

[–]bramblepuss 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

that's the one area where they miss Pronger and Mez hugely. Grossmann is good in that respect, but the Timonen/Carle line can't get any push when it comes to clearing the net.

[–]di6i741r3v01u7i0n 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, I can't wait until Mez get's back (hopefully next game) because we definitely need some more big bodies clearer the crease for Bryz. Overall though we're just not playing the body. Letting the Devils just take whatever ice they want without any real push back

Well, if Shanny is being consistent with his dealing of stars so far (Weber and Ovie), then worst for G will be a fine. In a perfect world though, he'll be out for game 5 in Philly, which sucks, but it might kick the Flyers hard enough in the ass to get their acts together.

Its because both of our goals were mainly breakdowns on their part that are rare. Up until both of those goals, they had been dominating play (still are). They knew that those goals had happened, but they were still controlling the play, so they went out and kept doing what they had been doing, and we see where that's gotten us. They know we're not hitting, not attacking, and letting them play their game, so they aren't worried.

Flyers suck yet again. 11 minutes into the 2nd period and no shots again. Pathetic. They can't do anything right. Two devils in front of the net and Bryz manages to make the save. But how does that happen?

New game...take a shot after every loss battle along the boards in the D zone. Should be fucked up before 3rd period.

If you don't want to drink that much, take a shot after the Flyers register a shot on goal.

If we get out of this period still tied I consider that a small victory. Bryz has completely bailed them out. Outshot 30-10? Flyers are being dominated in every aspect!

Gotta wake up!

Whats the consensus on the Giroux hit at the end of the 2nd period? Im new to hockey so cant tell. I know a hit to the head is a bad hit, but it didnt seem that bad and it wasnt his full head...

[–]onesteveone 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Between the head being hit and the puck being gone I wasn't a big fan, plus it seemed like Giroux was doing it to retaliate for something that wasn't called. he didn't leave his feet, though, so that's a good thing. I don't think it'll be a big deal.

I'm not a hockey expert by any means, but I don't think so. This was also posted earlier, so give this person's opinion a read:

Okay, need a miracle to get anything out of this series at the moment though...

[–]onesteveone 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, you're absolutely correct. To our credit we've been playing our best hockey with our backs against the wall this year, but that has usually been in games not in series. This is just a bigger pill to swallow being down in a series, but the same principle applies and I'm hoping it holds true. We're headed back to Philly for the next game so hopefully that helps us a little.

[–]thelotuseater13 0 points1 point ago

I hope so but i am not hopeful, just seems substandard in my opinion when compared to other games ive watched. My housemate is a Devils fan, I dont think i can take my first playoffs losing to them :(

[–]onesteveone 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've seen the Flyers lose two stanley cups, an early exit from the playoffs isn't nearly as bad, but I know what it's like to live with someone who is a fan of an opposing team.

Welcome to the hatred that is the NJ Devils. They are my least favorite hockey team, so if we lose this series I am going to be miserable.

No more dump and chase. Cross blue line, hit the brakes or cut to the middle. Fuck the cycle, work the half boards and the points and get pucks to the net through traffic. It is really that easy

It annoys me in general when commentators cross reference sports in their play by play.

The Devils are not even a good team. The only reason they are winning is that for some reason the Flyers are underachieving so badly.

It's frustrating that we will probably be knocked out by a worse team just because of bad play.

The Devils have no chance to win the cup. They will no doubt lose to whoever wins the Caps/Rangers series and even if they magically win that they won't beat Flyers west.

[–]-CraZy- 9 points10 points ago

Although I agree we are a much more talented team, you can't be arrogant and say we should win. Based off talent, the pens should win everything because they have 2 superstars+great supporting cast. I don't know what's wrong with the team, but I agree it is frustrating. Don't know if its system or players but the team play sucks.

Complete dive...Definitely sold that bullshit

Edit: Zubris totally knew there was only four seconds left in the period, so he could leave the ice and sell it hard. He'll be back on the bench at the start of the third without a doubt.

Second Edit: Called it, he's on the bench, looks fine.

Fucking puck bounces at the last second over Briere's stick with that shit ice they have in New Jersey.

The ice was bad for both teams. As much as I want to blame the refs and the ice, I can't. The defense was horrible.

[–]bestbiff 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm not blaming the ice for the loss. The flyers played awful. It's just that of course the puck takes a hop over the stick to lead to an empty net goal to cap off another terrible game.

I was not in the least bit surprised when that happened. That's what happens when concerts are scheduled during hockey season. The floor is still warm from the night before.
