The Flyers gave Montreal all they could handle and then some on Friday night, but despite outplaying the Canadiens for just about the entire contest, Philadelphia came out on the short end of the stick. Fans of the orange and black have had a rough season this year, resulting in a lot of vitriol towards their team.
Flyers Fans Shouldn’t Be Embarrassed Following Friday’s Loss
But in the aftermath of this latest loss, those fans shouldn’t be disappointed in their team, says SBN’s Broad Street Hockey.
Last night in Long Island, frustration was understandable. But when the Flyers play like they did tonight, from Brian Boucher to Braydon Coburn to Chris Pronger to Ville Leino to James van Riemsdyk, and still don't get a win, you need to stand up and hand it to the other team. Jaroslav Halak did everything he needed to do for the Montreal Canadiens tonight, and as a result, the Habs win the game.
Be disappointed, and be angry that the Flyers have put themselves in this current situation. But don't get down on them. Not tonight, not after they just laid it all on the line in an attempt to get two points. We're fans, so let's try and act like it. Is being negative at this time of year really going to make a difference anyway?
