In the house for the first time this year. Should've bugged Nap for his seats but instead I've padded Johnny Ticketmaster's pockets one more time

I think retrieving the puck five feet from the crease and then proceeding to pass it around the point until you turn it over to the one Flyer still on his skates may be the highest form of Montyball ever realized on ice.

Just fire Monty already. His system is garbage, this team generates nothing as a result. He needs to go.

I hate this penalty just because the sheer inconsistency of when they call this interference and not. Just dumb lindholm...

They might have gotten away with it if the guy coming on hadn't played the puck right in the area where the guy he was replacing was coming from.

Sigh... you know what's amazing about being on the power play? You have an extra guy they can't cover man to man... so it helps to not skate the puck directly to one of your own guy so that one defender can cover you both.

The team has very little identity. They aren’t a technical team, talented in interesting ways. They also aren’t a team of bruisers, muscling through things. That leaves mid-level grinding - but they play so carefully in the offensive zone and are so hesitant when they have an advantage or try to be so perfect when they have any opening that they basically do their opponent’s work for them.

Korpsy the Korpse may indeed be a stiff but he has stiffed the Flyers tonight and deserves so much more than this. A shame.

The scariest thing is that this team looks similar to the end of both the Julien and Cassidy eras: not particularly good in the offensive zone, and slower than Mac Jones reading a defence. Nothing flows, nothing’s spontaneous, it’s a lot of getting the puck, looking around for a second or two, then doing something.

Monty needs to put the board down and just tell them to put every puck they can on net and get bodies in front. Overplaying is not working, simplify this shit

Forget who said it, but Korpisalo deserves better than this tonight. He's been pretty damn good. Also been lucky, but he's done enough for a competent team to win the game.
