They played Jody Shelby who hadn’t played since March 18th. And they were still playing him after being down 4-0. You win games by outscoring them, not by bullying. Did they really think they were going to intimidate the Rangers. They are still developing a game plan like it’s 1974. That’s why they haven’t won in almost 40 years!

But on a serious note, Bryz isn’t the problem. It’s basically everyone ELSE in a Flyers jersey embarrassing themselves out there tonight. He’s actually been alright, all things considered.

They can’t play defense against the Rangers to save their lives. Bob would have gotten the effort tonight in front of him and gotten beaten badly himself.
