Penguins vs Flyers - Game 2

Post by Louis Lipps Service » Mon Apr 20, 2026 8:36 pm

Hoping to see some adjustments on all levels tonight.

Young guys need to step up and play through the hitting instead of focusing on avoiding it.

Need better puck retrievals on dump ins and more sustained zone time.

And the power play needs to make the Flyers pay when they get over aggressive.

LET'S GO PENS!!!!

Playing much better overall, but man, 3 power plays in a period with nothing to show for it is a giant missed opportunity.

Better pace that period but we still look like a mess offensively.

I dunno. Something seems off to me. Might just be a bad draw to get Philthy in the first round.

.343 percent she in one goal games this year.

That's been a weakness.

Better. We are missing the cage on a ton of shots

And Novak, like dude, this is the playoffs. Get your mind right or hit the bench.

That was less than stellar, haha.

Like I said the last game, I'm not going to get too worked up if we lose this series. We weren't supposed to be anywhere near the playoffs, so this is all bonus hockey as far as I'm concerned.

I think/hope that Muse and some of our young guys will learn a great deal from being here and will be better suited for playoff runs in the future.

Closest they came to scoring was Kindle missing a seemingly open net. Otherwise not even close

If Letang is registered as a -4 for the series so far, what does Muse do? I mean I know what he will do, but what should he do? Because Kris is a tremendous liability out there. You are very limited in addressing a roster construction issue at the end of April but I dunno, try something.

Shows the difference an experienced coach can make.

Tocchet >>>> Muse

The Flyers' guys are just as young and just as "not supposed to be anywhere near the playoffs" as the Penguins...but the moment hasn't been too big for them.

But yes in general I'm not fussed...except it's the Flyers and I have to take shit from my Philly friends over this. :D
