"Flyers Rant"
So, they Flyers tie the game at the last minute against the best hockey team in the league the Carolina Hurricanes. Actually it was the last two tenths of a second. They forced overtime, and won in a shootout. Making it back to back shoot out wins, and I thought that would be the game that pulled their heads out of their asses.
However, come Saturday (a game I was on hand for) they totally lost any momentum they got from the last second heroics from rookie Freddy Meyer. The Flyers not only gave up 6 goals, but they lost with less than 30 seconds left in the third period.
They spent most of the 3rd period on their heels, taking dumb pentaly again and just letting Buffalo take over the game. It was ugly.
Over the last 15 games, the Flyers can only beat teams who have no shot at a playoff spot anymore, and fall like a deck of cards against most of the playoff bound teams. The defense once a bright spot with this team has been a disgrace. They keep leaving the goalie (no matter who is in net) left high and dry. Letting players skate all over the place. Leaving star players uncovered, making dumb passes in front of the net, throwing the puck out the center in stead of actually using the boards, and losing the battles in the corners.
The offense has been just as bad. They players seem to just quit if they have a one goal lead as if that is enough to win a game. In stead of going in for the kill they just sit back and let the team hang around and hang around before they know it the game is tied.
The pentaly killing is ranked 29th of the 30 in the league. They can't win any important face-offs anymore, and their powerplay looks as bad as it did years ago when all the players blamed the coach.
Awful, just awful.
This team is going to be out on the greens early this spring if they don't wake up soon!
As I type this they are losing to the Penguins 1-0. Letting Sidney Crosby do whatever the hell he wants on the ice, and acting like they are drugged everytime they get the puck into the offensive zone.
WAKEUP!
UGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
