No more short-handed play for ANYBODY! THE FLYERS!
Rangers can be short-handed the rest of this game.

Well, okay, but as long as our PP doesn’t result in giving Callahan another great scoring chance.

aye, rally is something.
he’s the first rangers player to ascend to the captaincy on merit in nearly 20 years.
if it’s any consolation, i feel the same about giroux. that dude’s an awesomeness value-pak. saw how pissed lundqvist was on his goal? henke is always pissed to let in a goal, in practice or in games, but it takes a special player to make him lose his shit like that on tv. :-)
I just want them to make the playoffs.

Non-Todd scoring chances 7-4 PHI in the 2nd, 13-8 PHI for game now. Callahan and Hartnell each lead with 3.

The Rangers collapse on the net and seal everything shut around them. Those scoring chances are simply being diminished in quality as they get to Lundqvist

I thought scoring chance were just that, good chances to score. A good shot from a good location; or am I wrong? It’s not just a shot, correct?

by JerseyDriver on Feb 11, 2012 2:51 PM EST up reply actions
it’s not just a shot know, but scoring chances are subjective assessments. A good scoring chance to one might not be a good scoring chance to another. When the Rangers have 5 men collapsing around Lundqvist and Bourdon’s taking a shot from the point, I don’t count that as a scoring chance.
"Start playing with some jam in here"
by CoburnsCuddleBuddy on Feb 11, 2012 2:54 PM EST up reply actions
Thats not counted as a scoring chance.
by Anders Jensen on Feb 11, 2012 2:55 PM EST up reply actions
While there is no exact definition of a scoring chance, the Elias Sports Bureau, who is the official statistics recorder of the National Hockey League and many other professional sports leagues, clarifies a scoring chance as an attempt or shot taken from a “home-plate shaped area” that goes from the top of the faceoff circles, through the faceoff dots, then angled to the goal posts. Another possible definition of a scoring chance can be any shot that is taken by an attacking team on an odd-man rush, such as a 2-on-1 or 3-on-2 break./blockquote>
I think I’m right, actually
"Start playing with some jam in here"
by CoburnsCuddleBuddy on Feb 11, 2012 2:56 PM EST up reply actions
When you say the point you mean from around the blueline right? or do I have it all wrong?
by Anders Jensen on Feb 11, 2012 2:58 PM EST up reply actions
At the point I mean a couple of strides in from the blueline
If the Rangers collapse, then whomeever is at the point would come a couple of strides into the blueline
It wouldn’t make sense for the Rangers to collapse and Bourdon or Timonen to stay at the blue line
"Start playing with some jam in here"
by CoburnsCuddleBuddy on Feb 11, 2012 3:00 PM EST up reply actions
That’s basically the definition we use as well. I record things like transition, and general location (high/medium/low) as well

I want the Rangers to be handed their first regulation loss after scoring three goals. I want them to lose because of a PPG against. I want them to lose because Jagr scores. I want them to lose because Lundquist lets in a horrible goal.

That’s because Pronger is really fucking good (even at his age). So what you see as a mental lapse or affliction of some sort, is really just the true talent level of the team without Pronger.

Yea, for all the stats, have we considered the fact that Kimmo isn’t what he used to be, Coburn never turned into the player we thought he’d be before the eye injury, and our defense just isn’t that good? We have a whole lot of puck moving ability, but without Pronger we don’t have a single guy with the physical side we need? I don’t think that clearing the porch shows up as easily as points, shots, etc on the metrics.

its not a desperate trade. its a need. flyers D is clearly hurting. its the front offices job to get the personnel needed to get the job done. if we’re trying to win the cup, and we have a chance to do so (cause we arent bad at scoring, #2 in the league i believe) but a shitty defense. address the issue.

I agree it’s a need, but the trade deadline is not the time to fill that need. Wait in the off-season when cheaper deals will be had.

why is addressing a need at trade deadline a “desperate move?” Its not. its seeing what adjustments one can make to make the team relatively better (barring the versteeg trade cause WTF HOMER). It is clear that once Pronger went out, the defense atrocious. One of the worst in the league. We have a solid core of offensive awesomeness, trading away support and a pick, to make us contenders again is not desperation, its being smart. Addressing an issue, while giving things up that arent as pressing.

Because any defensemen worth a time will likely cost the Flyers an arm, a leg, and a head. Is it worth it give Nashville Brayden Schenn, Matt Read, and a 1st round pick in exchange for only a few months for Suter?
Absolutely not. And you are stock-raving mad if you think it is.

And Nashville might even want JVR in there as well. Actually, they probably will.

they need some offense don’t they? JVR is young and would fit nicely with their ‘we want to build for the future’ mentality they got going.
Bob > Bryz
first of all, that is the most ridiculous trade in the world. schenn isnt going anywhere. JVR is the thing that we will be getting rid of if anything. and there are other parts of the team that have proven skill and would be worth something if we throw picks in

I do not remember precisely, but that would stand to reason. Those that make big splashes are giving up a lot, very likely over-paying in a seller’s market. It stands to reason those teams do not stand much of a chance.

I’m not necessarily against trading JVR per se, especially with his new contract, I just think him and others (and probably a 1st round pick) for a few months of Suter reeks of selling low on someone.

Luke Schenn is not having a good year at all. Hal Gill is no improvement at all.
Gleason is the most interesting name and one I think might be had for cheap. He might be the only one actually worth the trade, but he won’t satisfy people because he is not the big name people or looking for.

First, when does the front office care about what the people want. Second, my point was that it doesnt have to be Sutter, doesnt have to be a big name person you know. you have to get some kind of upgrade for Defense. and Schenn while not having a great season is still an upgrade from MAB or Gus

It sure seemed that way when the Flyers traded Richards and Carter and signed Bryzgalov.
you have to get some kind of upgrade for Defense. and Schenn while not having a great season is still an upgrade from MAB or GusLuke Schenn has been an abomination this year and would be hesitant to say he is far and away better than Gus. But let’s say that he is. It is not about whether or not Luke Schenn is better than Gus, it is about whether Luke Schenn is enough of an upgrade over Gus that it is worth losing plus JVR (and likely someone else and/or a first round pick) for.
And the answer to that is an absolute no.

A sad, sad fact
My friend and I are discussing Hal Gill, and I said I wouldn’t give up a second for him, but I would give up a third. My friend responded “When was the last time one of our second round picks made an impact?”
My initial response was “Bullshit question. We never have a second round pick.”
After saying that I looked it up. Our last second round pick was Kevin marshal in 2007…before that was Nodl…and before that was Jason Becket….in 1998.
Wow.
I guess the answer was “Janne Niinimaa”….5 second round picks ago!

Bryz is not the reason this teams sucks. He has had some soft goals and played sub par most of this season. But after watching this game it has finally sunken in.
The D on this team is horrible. Period.

It's the truth.
lundqvist has played at more or less the same insane compete level for the duration of his seven years in the league… but it’s no coincidence his numbers are approaching career-bests this season, behind a totally committed and mostly-disciplined defense.
it’s never just the goalie… except when it is. i don’t think it was ever all-humangous, either.
no bryz and we have cap room for a stud d man though

Despite the terrible refs, I think Justin is right. Bottom line is, without Pronger and with all the trades and Bryz’s bad year, this may not be the kind of team that can keep up with the Rangers. I’m not saying its all over, but it’s going to take a lot of work going into the playoffs with confidence against any team. You don’t want to go into it hoping you don’t face a specific team.

Probably no one left to read this but, I really do not care that many people here do not want a player like Hal Gil and call him a non skating pylon, however, he is a stay at home defenseman who keeps the crease clear. He is also large, intimidating, blocks a ton of shots and can bring a snarl back to this defense. How many times do we have to watch our defense chase the puck while two to three opposing players camp out in front of our net? We can get him cheap and it is not a want but a need. We need a defenseman like him.
Because what the Flyers need right now is yet another defenseman over 35-years old.

Do you think we need another blow up, but on the defensive side of things? There’s serious problems with this team.

Carlos Ruiz, My Nickname is Chooch.
No, I do not think another blow up is necessary. You can’t do anything with Pronger and Timonen, and Coburn and Carle are plenty good. The Flyers should acquire another defenseman, but doing so via the trade deadline is not the way to go about it. It’s too late to develop one via the draft to replace Pronger and Timonen, so it is best to acquire them through free agency and off-season trade, where the price is cheaper.

I linked this in the Fly-By the other day and no one bothered to respond. If this kid goes with Option 3, Homer better be first in line to get him. His development is what lead Anaheim to trade their 1st rounder, Jake Gardiner, to Toronto.
