We might need to use the moral victory joke for the Flyers now...what a bush league display that was at the end of the game. Lats was just minding his own business and Hartnell just jumps on him. BS. That stuff won't fly when BGL is back though. It better not.
Weird game. I think the Habs have now reached the point where you have to put them away when you have a chance, and Philly didn't do that. Price's big save on Briere when it was 2-1 (Briere was all alone to his right) and Knuble blowing an easy goal were turning points IMO. The door was left open and we blew it wide open.
Gotta love having offence from the defence...once again Hamrlik was key offensively tonight. Lang's line was very solid, Sergei was a star on that line. What a pass on that 4th goal.
Andrei Kostitsyn looks more and more like a PF. Just a bull on skates. That line is at like 75%.
That's a big win for Price, too. He fought through 2 more Flyers long shot glove side goals and kept us in it.

Lapierre sucks, Gorges didn't show up tonight, the Kost brothers are ridiculous, and Mike Richards is a great player.
My thoughts on that game right there.
I saw good things from Gorges tonight, and yes I agree that Lapierre just isn't stepping it up this season. His play isn't up to par right now. I'd like to see Chipchura get a shot centering the fourth line.
For those of us lucky enough to get the Flyer feed in the States, Bill Clement said the Canadiens top 3 lines were "ALMOST" as good as the Flyers top 3 lines.
