    Peak flyers hockey is when you can’t expect the goalie to let in less than 6 goals

  2. Frost had an incredible game, loved the work ethic on top of the nasty goal

  3. StillCircumventing

    Fucking embarrassing performance from Sandstrom. 

  4. Cosbycomedy

    Maybe we should have played our starting goalie since we didn’t play yesterday and don’t play again until Tuesday…

  5. FlyersLaForest

    5 goals should always get you a point in the standings. Knew as soon as we got within 1 I’d be angry they gave me hope. Sandstrom needed to stop that Heinen shot, it’s a 5 to 5 game if he did

  6. Fuck the dirty ass bruins, fuck the refs, fuck that rat ass skank, fuck rocky thompson, fuck staal, and fuck all boston teams

  7. DudicalAwesome

    I guess we just aren’t doing defense and goaltending anymore.

  8. Phillyvegas24

    I miss Seeler

    Sandstrom had some terrific saves only to let absolute backbreaking goals in the 3rd. Once he looses confidence it’s game over with him.

  9. Streetkillz13

    It’s a tough call in net right now, Ersson is being ridden into the ground, but Peterson is atrocious and Sandstrom doesn’t give his teams a chance to win (4 wins in 29 career games played and a sub .885% career save percentage.)

  10. lilbismyfriend21

    When we miss the playoffs we can thank Carter Hart for being a disgusting human being

  11. Sacramento44

    They’ve burned out Ersson and anyone who backs him up quite frankly stinks. They botched the trade deadline if they wanted to make a run at the playoffs by not acquiring a decent backup and it’s biting them in the ass.

    Also Scott Hartnell is really really bad at in game color commentating.

  12. DELCO-PHILLY-BOY

    Always find the most brutal ways to lose in Boston

  13. AnalogDogg

    Loved not one but two sneaky wraparound goals, plus the breakaway score.

  14. RisingEephus8

    easy to be gutted but the fact that its our non-longterm pieces costing us these games (Staal, Sandstrom, Deslaurier, Erik Johnson) while the young studs (York, Beezer, Frosty) keep showing serious flash is grounds for optimism

  15. Streetkillz13

    I love him as a player, but in a game like that you really need TK to elevate. It’s the difference between a star player and a superstar player.

  16. Repulsive-Season-129

    well we got some good tape to watch maybe learn some vision on D. Laughts looked bad but he’ll be good for the run

  17. TA_AlrightOK

    Fuck Carter Hart, stupid amoral piece of shit.

  18. BrinkOfFTP

    Torts with a backhand TK callout, sounded like

  19. Free-Supermarket-516

    I was happy with the attempted comeback, they didn’t quit. A couple defensive breakdowns was the difference. Good night of hockey at least, Oilers/Avs starting now.

  20. RisingEephus8

    Sidenote, but TLY on Twitter seems to have the emotional maturity of a 4th grader

  21. Pallandrotheblue

    That was a fun game. They had a ton of fight. Pity they couldn’t have tied it.

  22. No_Bank_330

    These good teams are playing playoff hockey. Peaking at the right time.

    We don’t have that extra gear. This has been our gear all year long. Now those good teams are passing us by.

  23. SerbianSlayer

    Just realized Tippett had three assists. He’s usually more of a goal scorer… is he finding another aspect to his game?

  24. thatdudefromthattime

    The defense after the 1st wasn’t quite as strong and a little more help to your backups’ backup would prob be appreciated. But, these guys are worn down

  25. BrinkOfFTP

    Al just triggered 75% of this sub saying Frost’s plays can “drive you bonkers” hahah

  26. HystericalHysteria87

    Was at the game. Bruins fans were SWEATING down to the last seconds. Was glad to see them fight back after dropping the ball and digging themselves into a hole

  27. 420BlzItRocko

    Kolosov cannot get here soon enough. No disrespect to Sandstrom, he’s trying his hardest, but he just doesn’t have the “it” factor at the NHL level.

  28. Just have one thing to say here FUCK Rocky Thompson, what a fucking clown. You have the best (arguably) FO player that is your C in the league and he doesn’t even get a second in the last 2 minutes of that game? You should be fired yesterday !!

  29. JohnKrukIsAllElite

    My partner’s more of a baseball fan and doesn’t follow hockey at all, but she’s been getting more into it lately. After the game, one of my curses included, “And fuck Carter Hart too, that piece of shit.” To which she replied, “Why is he a piece of shit? Just because he didn’t play well tonight?”

    And then we got to have a really uncomfortable conversation as I explained who Carter Hart is.

  30. Jaybb3rw0cky

    People calling out TK but Coots really needs to start stepping up. I know some people hold him in high regard but the truth is he needs to convert his time while on the ice to more than a -1 and 3 shots on net.
