  Flyers_orange_medium


As the Boston Bruins stroll into town tonight, get ready to witness a team at a crossroads. They're a team dangerously close to falling off the playoff map, potentially without their best defenseman, and rattled at the prospect of losing their best, arguably their only scorer for the remainder of the season.

Obviously, Marc Savard won't be playing tonight, and without him, the Bruins season-long question of "where does the scoring come from?" gets even more magnified. But as mentioned, these Bruins are at a crossroads. Do they use the Savard injury as the excuse for why they fell apart down the stretch, or following the lack of suspension to Matt Cooke, do they use it to generate an us against the world mentality?

There's no mistaking that tonight is a huge game for the Bruins. It's the same for the Flyers though too, of course, who enter the game with a chance to make up some ground on the teams ahead of them (depending on other outcomes, obviously).

The Flyers have played well against the Bruins all season long, winning at home on a gorgeous Claude Giroux shootout winner in October and on the road amidst all the losing that went on in the middle of December. Of course, the Winter Classic was a different outcome, but Philadelphia owned that game until the final minutes, really.

Michael Leighton will start in goal tonight across from Boston's Tuukka Rask.

After the jump, complete lineups, a few questions to answer and our in-game discussion.

Star-divide

Flyers Line Combinations

Gagne - Richards - Carcillo
Briere- Carter - Hartnell
van Riemsdyk - Giroux - Asham
Powe - Betts - Laperriere

Pronger - Carle
Timonen - Krajicek
Parent - Coburn

Boston Line Combinations

Sturn - Bergeron - Recchi
Wheeler - Krejci - Ryder
Lucic - Sobotka - Satan
Paille - Begin - Thornton

Hunwick - Seidenberg
Stuart - Wideman
Penner - Boychuk

No word on Chara, game-time decision. He missed Boston's last game.

Starting Goaltenders

GP MIN W L EGA GA GAA SA SV SV% SO
Tuukka Rask 30 1706 14 8 61 2.15 829 768 .926 3


Questions to Answer

  1. Will Leighton allow the typical one-weak-goal-per-game tonight?
  2. How will Boston come out? Do they look even more determined in the aftermath of losing Savard?
  3. Can the top line of Richards-Gagne-Carcillo keep up their hot play?
  4. Carter has nine goals in nine games. 10 in 10?

Ben, Geoff and I will all be at the game this evening, so enjoy the open thread without us. CSN, WIP, you know the deal. LET'S GO FLYERS!

Rask was Toronto goalie of the future super prospect 21st overall selection in 2005 traded to Boston for Andrew Raycroft yeah the same guy who won the Calder Trophy prior to the lockout Rask has credentials and he is from the Finnish school of butterfly goaltending like Nitty but the being 2inches taller makes a big difference trying to beat him over the shoulder when he goes down, he is very good young goaltender playing behind a very good defense

Rask seems to be terrible when even partially screened.

So hopefully Hartnell goes to the freaking net and he can at least make it look like he’s trying to help the team score goals.

you could argue that hartnell has little offensive touch…

but defensemen are the ones who pinch – it’s a question of positioning, not skill in the offensive zone

by lerris on Mar 11, 2010 7:35 PM EST up reply actions  

I recognize the positioning argument, but it doesn’t make much sense to have a player like Krajicek or Parent pinch. Krajicek is a stay at home defesemen, with an even +/-. So when he does pinch to afford better positioning, goals aren’t necesarily being scored. So why pinch with Krajicek at all?

yeah, i agree that i’d rather have a green or campbell take a chance and jump into the play than someone like krajicek. it’s a totally handwave-y argument since i have no statistics to back it up (not sure how you’d track it anyway) but i feel like consistent pressure by pinching dmen – even derian hatcher-types – and forwards who rotate back appropriately forces the opposition to stay on the defensive instead of playing in neutral ice or your defensive end.

They were probably overrated from the get go because of last year, which is something I don’t understand with college BB. Whatever, the kids are young, and the big guy they have to play inside has been sick for half of the year and behind. They just aren’t consistent enough on D to make up for their cold offensive spells and their perimeter D is almost as bad as the Sixers.
