I do wonder if the crease continues to be each guy gets a start every other game. Has Vladar earned the right to play consecutive games? I think he has considering he has only given up 4 goals over two games to the Panthers. Pretty impressive.
I do think PP1 is still missing a net front presence. Granted, Tippett scored from there against CAR, but I do not see a forward pretty much planted around the crease. Forwards seem to be rotating thru the crease instead. I really hope Grebenkin gets some PP time because I believe he could be an effective net front presence.
I get the PK angle on why Michkov is getting less minutes. I was at the game against Florida and watched him A LOT. He just seems off. He made some good plays but a lot of what I saw was him seeming a bit lost on the ice, kind of like we may have expected him to be last year as a rookie.
As for Andrae, he is a top 6 guy on this team and needs to stay in the lineup over Ginning or Juulson. He is just a better player than both of them.
The Flyers need to contain the Scheifele line. They have the tools to do it. I would expect to see one, or even two depending on situation, of Couturier, Cates and Dvorak out there against them at all times. Tocchet is seeming to game plan for individual opponents pretty effectively so far.
