Can one of our fearless media ask Sully why he thinks DOC and his 3 goals in 36 games is now 2nd line worthy?
He's more of a scoring threat than Puljujärvi has been of late, is the reasoning I think?

EK has been much better of late. Creating all kinds of chances. Bunting is at his best when he’s engaged like he has been. Tomasino should be playing in the top 6 over Glass or DOC. Sully clearly doesn’t like his two way game.

Agreed on all.Bunting makes a difference with that style for sure.
Sully likely will scratch Tomasino for Hayes against the Isles after the Christmas Break.

I imagine JP has a dart board somewhere with a picture of HCMS on it.

He should be launching an ICBM at that Dart Board.Would be justified.

Quick question, why is DOC still in the lineup? Three goals in 35 games. Not doing much for his next contract.

Goalie depth looks terrible for the Flyers. None of their 3 goalies have SV% above .900 or GAA belor 3.0 (same for Jarry and Ned). Ersson with .643 SV% after two periods tonight.

I guess none of their alternatives after losing Hart are working.

Because he works hard and is responsible defensively. Sullivan would have 12 DOC’s in his lineup if he was able to. Sullivan values perceived defensive acumen over goal scoring ability.

Whatever. Then we’d have 36 goals for the year.

It’s so weird seeing entire teams get simultaneously butt hurt whenever Acciari makes a clean hit.

And that’s why we’re a bottom five team in finishing, are not likely to make the playoffs and the coach should have been fired awhile ago

That was about as clean as you can make it.

I don't recall taking Graves' name in vain tonight. Although there's lots of game left.

We're seriously going to jinx it now? You realize it's a two-goal lead?

Oh crap...
