Wednesday Morning Fly By: BOOOOOOOOSH, Giroux/Hartnell, and a Crying Captain

Agreed, I’m with you. They are fighting for their playoff lives right now and trying to (probably) protect some people’s jobs on the team. They’ve already gotten one coach they liked fired; now they are in danger of not only not making the playoffs, but drastically altering the roster if things shame spiral. Not good all around. Giroux was just getting his French up.

You mean the Bobs?

I can see an argument for that… but I do still think they’d need to remix it before they tried to use it for anything.

I have to agree with Mario here on JVR… I have been a JVR-supporter all season, but he is taking way too long to shoot – something that is most likely brought on by his recent slump. And as well as he might be skating and putting in the effort, this is the NHL, and the Flyers top-line players need to be able to finish their quality chances – especially when the player doesn’t hit or play defense.

JVR is not alone in this – Offensively the whole team is slumping – and it has been pretty obvious in their shot selections. Richards looks really lost on the half boards during the power play – and I don’t even want to talk about what happened to Hartnell’s offensive game. Bottom line – without a healthy Jeff Carter, it is not going to matter who is in goal.

can we agree that both players suck.

And i asked before, but do you think JVR will ever be good, or will you always hate him.

No what I am saying is Hartnell is bringing down the skilled players when he plays with them. He is playing better when doesn’t try to make plays and when he plays against the lesser competition.
 
JVR a 20 year old rookie has 9 fewer points in two fewer games then Hartnell 27 years old 9th year in the league. JVR is a +4 better and Hartnell should be in his prime years and is 16 goals short of the mark he made last season. He also continues to take stupid penalties and fires his passes in a McNabb like fashion rocket hard and at the receivers feet.

But you are trying so hard to be right about JVR when he has played way better than all the crap you predicted in August you can’t see through you blind hatred and petty need to always be right. I guess you win this won because no matter what I do or what I say you’ll continue to ignore the facts and delude yourself into believing that Hartnell and his huge 3 assists since Carter’s injury is playing so much better than JVR (1g 1a) over that 8 game span. Whatever.

Now all the Flyers need is 2 points and you can kiss goodbye you prediction that this team wouldn’t make the playoffs this year. We all know that you rather have the Flyers miss that playoffs so you can run around and say I told I told you so like some 4th Grader in the school yard.

Don’t worry we already know what you are going to say. “So what the Flyers made the playoffs what does it matter they are going to lose to whoever in the 1st round anyway, etc etc.” I rather love than lost than to never loved at all but I guess you like to take the easy way out and just piss all over everything. Now I know what the D stands for, MarioD for Downer ruining everyone’s fun on post at a time. If your not having any fun why should anyone else.
