Howie58 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) Greetings: We are heavy underdogs at Nassau Coliseum: https://www.docsports.com/free-picks/nhl-hockey/2021/philadelphia-flyers-vs-new-york-islanders-prediction-4-8-2021-nhl-pick-tips-and-odds.html You wonder if scouts will be in the stands looking at potential trade targets? We have lost three in a row to the Isles. In their current funk, the O and B might make it four. Edited April 8, 2021 by Howie58 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samifan Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) The Flyers know their season is over and based on the character they have shown this season I fully expect a lack luster effort on their part tonight. I see them giving up 6 or 7 goals tonight. Carter Hart won’t be able to work through his issues behind this cast of keystone cops on D and lazy forwards. Hope they go with Elliott or Lyon tonight. #IHATEJAKE Edited April 8, 2021 by Samifan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they go with Elliott or Lyon tonight. Samifan: There is a lot of wisdom in that assessment. Looking ahead, NJ dumping Zajac and Palmieri for picks and prospects, coupled with an outstanding young goalie duo, tells me we are in a world of hurt within this division...Isles, NJ, Washington, Rangers... We hope Hart turns it around. I am probably not watching tonight with other stuff on the plate. But if I were in CF's shoes, the final third of the season would be audition time for the youngins. His trades, if any, should follow NJ's--sell off and bring in picks/prospects. I think we've hit a wall. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose a few guys who know they have trade value may keep working hard to show their worth...like Laughton for instance. And I expect guys like Giroux, Voracek and Couturier will maintain their commitment to winning shifts and games. But at this point I guess the passengers outnumber those guys by a big margin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they get to face Palmieri on the Isles this game. Awesome. I have accepted this season is over...and time for the Flyer purge so i could carless if they win now just work on the draft pick. Basically??? TANK TIME!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morin will probably get a game, but should he? No. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Scott Stevens were playing now, he would be constantly suspended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Cizikas is back in the game playing so that should lessen the chance of a suspension, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little guy falls down. Ref hesitates to put arm up. NHL zaps ref to call penalty. We can't have big guys shoving little guys says the NHL. Bett turd continues to ruin hockey. Not even a penalty.
