The Flyers are a team with a need for a goalie, and cap space.

Not sure how this team shakes off the “we’ve won two in a row and we are good so we don’t have to go balls out” like they did against St. Louis & Calgary. And last year. And the year before that. It has been a recurring theme with this squad for a while. Tage called his teammates out the last time. Tonight is a huge game. This team needs to show that they can flush away recent good results and work their azz off and earn it. The injury bug is no longer an excuse. How hard are they willing to be to play against? Dahlin and Tage score tonight and Ellis does enough to get a win. Let’s gooooo!

We're gonna make this guy look like a future all star.

THAT'S Buffalo Sabres hockey right there.

I'm saving a perfectly chilled LaChouffe just for tonight. Unfortunately I have a 6pm meeting to attend first. So I might have to catch up. Correct. No ESPN+ but if you get TNT on your TV package there is no blackout. It's a national broadcast.

One day I was in NYC waiting for a train and I went inside the lobby of the building next door to check my phone. Turned out that was NHL headquarters. I thought about stopping in to say hi to Gary but I didn't want security to taze me. Or what a kicking motion is.

We're actually 5-5 vs PHI over the last 10 games, certainly doesn't feel that way.

My point is the rules are the rules. Until they eliminate the OTL point, those still matter. And maybe some of you are just young whippersnappers and don't remember when NHL games ended in ties. Each team got a point. So don't look at it as a loss. Look at it as a tie with a bonus point awarded to the OT winner. Because essentially that's what it is.

You don't know why, tho. Is he the #1 goalie now or was he being showcased for scouts?

Now that's just crazy talk.

Sabres top six is healthy, Dahlin is playing great, and we are getting a steady diet of backups. Phili: Backup confirmed this morning Winn: Backup or third string since Helle is on IR Calg: probably Wolf even tho Cooley’s numbers are better. So kind of the backup? Edm: Most likely the Skinner experience, so who knows what we are in for. Van: backup or third string because Demko is on IR Sea: Starter We are getting almost everyone’s worst in the crease and we have to take advantage. I’ll say 4-1-1 when it’s much more likely it’ll be 2-2-2.

Well there's a turn of phrase. Susceptible? I always took it as carrying water.

Yea, and yea ya made my heart skip a few beats. I’ve been living on highlights, intermittent live feeds and this forums gdt responses live as I’ve worked 60+ hrs a week, 12 hr 7pm to 7am shifts for near a month now. Xmas for the grandkids getting pricey, grandpa’s had to make sacrifices 😅

Sorry Scotty. I was just going by what WGR posted in the pre-game article. I don't see this on my ESPN+ schedule. Is it on TNT tonight?

When you speak to him, can you please find out what goalie interference is?? Cuz no one knows…

6 wins - 0 losses the Sabres aren’t fake about to go on a run.

While I am at it, I'll let him know my thoughts on 3v3 OT and shootouts.

Flyers backup Samuel Ersson was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, indicating we are getting the backup tonight (per Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Phili). He’s 4-2-2 with an .859%. Ripe for the picking!

I think it's more, Terry is getting PO'd about the cash hemorrhaging that his lap dog GM produces, and is forcing certain decisions, ala personnel, which IMO is a TERRIBLE way to manage a squad's "assets." And, around and around we go 😵‍💫

Is it a TNT blackout? edit: just checked, nope, it’s on my menu, no local blackout……. why want to give me a cardio workout so early in the day 😜

You can drink but watching this game will be a problem... "The only place to hear Dan Dunleavy and Rob Ray is on WGR Sports Radio 550 as this is a radio only game." 😠

That’s totally fair. I still think he’s best served in the minors while he gains some weight and feels pressure to lead and produce for his team. I’m glad we got to see at he can hang in the NHL and his future can be bright.

Are you always susceptible to marketing or just from the NHL and Terry Pegula?

That win could put them within 2 points of a crazy log jam for 2nd place. It's such a strange league so far this year.
