I mean, in a normal year, it's typical for a flu outbreak to course through a hockey team, so I could see this getting out of hand quickly.

Their protocols are garbage. Has nothing to do with playing indoors. No issues with European hockey leagues. And it’s not a regular season format... have you been watching?

They aren't doing rapid testing exclusively because it is extremely inaccurate. You could say worst case it's a false positive but the amount of games that could possibly be postponed/cancelled due to those tests would extremely high. Either way games would be getting postponed. I believe they've been doing 24 hour testing the day before, and if someone is positive they then do a round of rapid tests and pray they don't come back positive.

Everything is a factor, and they all compound. 7 hours ago, Blazehound said: And it’s not a regular season format... have you been watching? Yes. I have watched every game. They are playing a modified regular season. Are we arguing semantics here? They're not playing quite the amount of teams or games, but this is still a much bigger headache than simply holding a playoff tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devpool Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Honestly for being down 5 guys (I'm not counting braun, addition by subtraction there) not a bad game. Yea 0 for 5 on the PP, but pretty sure I saw both andreoff and NAK on the PP at one point. Hart was solid, but it was the rangers. After a week off and only two practice (only one for some of them) getting a point isn't bad. Outdoor game is gonna suck though. If they win it'll be because Hart pitches a shutout 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devpool Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Today is gonna be a bloodbath We're gonna have 2 defensemen playing wing (Morin/Friedman) and missing 5 forwards (G, Voracek, TK, Laughton, Lindblom) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devpool Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I mean they barely lost the last two Boston games without coots, they absolutely can beat them with a full roster. But yea a game missing 5 starting forwards there isn't much to expect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devpool Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I would love if the did something like this every season, aside from the stadium series.

Green_Guinness Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Not a good start. Amazing view, but the contrast of light and shadows on the ice could be problematic for the players, especially the goalies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m still amazed this team has the record they do. It is not a very good team. Not yet. They're a very undisciplined team but in no way are they a terrible team. Terrible teams have little to no talent and bad coaching. This team has neither of those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible teams have little to no talent and bad coaching. This team has neither of those I think the two things that holding the flyers back right now are they need to trade fir another top two pairing defenseman. Niskanen wasn’t good in the bubble but he was actually good up until the stoppage. Not elite but good as it solidified the top 4 defensemen. You get that i think hart begins to look better as well. I also think they need guys like coots and G to start scouring goals. You need your "stars” to play like stars when they get to the postseason and against better teams. I understand coots got injured and missed time and G isn’t out there right now. But they need those two to score goals cause the secondary and tertiary scoring is fine. The fact with the bubble and so far this season Giroux has 2 goals is not good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
