Greetings:

 

We are the better team looking at numbers, but recent experience back-to-back and on Saturday doesn't bode well for the O&B:

How is the team going to play after the tough game yesterday?  We'll see. 

 

It looks like Ellis and Hayes in the lineup, with Jones in goal:

I might sneak here from time to time to make some nonsense statements and uninteresting comments 😉

 

I don't want to put too much pressure here, but like I mentioned in another game thread, the Stars are actually way worse than their current record suggest. The offense is anemic, the defense has holes everywhere, the goaltending is barely average (and Holtby is apparently injured), the team is awfully coached and terribly prepared. 

 

  • Stars' goal-for avg at even-strength is 1.34, which makes a current all-time league record since the 2013-2014 Sabres (1.43). Unofficially, it's even worse than the 1930-1931 Philadelphia Quakers.
  • The Stars are the only team in the league with no regulation wins. Even Arizona managed to get one.
  • In their OT/SO wins, the Stars had a .942 SV%, which means a win is obtained by having exceptional goaltending.
  • And also... Oh screw that, you know what I mean

If Vigneault studied a bit the Stars, the gameplan is fairly simple. Put a little pressure on them (one guy on the forecheck is way enough), close the neutral zone, stay out of the box, win battles along the boards (pretty easy) and once the first Flyers goal is scored, just manage the lead, turtle, and wait until the end of the game to get your two points.

 

Drink a lot of coffee, this game will be miserably boring.

I hate the fcking stars 🤬!

 

And I'm sitting here in their arena, hating them. First trip here. It's nice. They did this area up real good. Now I just need an old fashioned Flyers ass whipping to complete the trip

 

Oh yeah, how weird is this, I'm here with an islanders fan

Do their uniforms look as ugly in person?

It's called the blackout jersey. In tribute of what's happening in Stars players' brains.

 

I sincerely don't know how the Flyers are scoreless after the first. Khudobin seems to be in a good day, it's all on him to rob this game.

Why the **** is Oskar on 4th line? That’s not going to get him going. 

oh and thanks @FD19372

I think Laughton should center the 5th line. He'd be great in that role

 

Hayes' surgery was for the wrong issue. They should have removed his head from his ass

They call that procedure a "Voracek".
