ParticipantThe Flyers are 1-1 in this current essential 6 game stretch. Not sure what to expect tonight but the Flyers seem more than capable of making a game of it. They’re 10-4-2 in their last 16 games. If I were Vegas, I’d rather have a healthy Pietrangelo than Marner but VGK seems to be making do.

ParticipantChristian Dvorak . . . does a lot of things well on both sides of the puck and he’s developed pretty strong chemistry with Zegras in particular.
Emil Andrae had a rough night with the puck on his stick.
The Flyers either over-passed or missed the net on some of their better scoring chances.Dvorak has been a real revelation. They should try to reup him. He does so many things well that you don’t expect a younger developing player to do well that I think he’s a must re-sign.
Andrea also let Vegas step inside him to the mid-ice lane and make plays at the net a couple times in the 1st. Cost them the first goal. On the other hand, Theodore and McNabb had tough nights and were both -2. Which one of them left Zegras wide open for his goal? I’ve seen them play a lot better.
The over-passing has been an intermittent issue. Saw Tippett pass on a prime scoring chance and Taco mentioned Sanheim did the same thing.

what kind of deal do you give dvorak? he is having a career year. always been a low to mid 30 guy.

Dvorak also never had a linemate like Zegras, which is a lot of that. So, GMs are going to figure he’s a .5 PPG guy at best and does the faceoffs and D things well for THEIR team. That does have real value. You also have to figure Coots will sag out of the top 9 eventually. Jett can’t be counted on as Top 9 next year and Nesbitt is a ways away. Certainly, I’m offering 3 years at the same price, maybe a bit more. He could also be traded for future assets if the Flyers fall apart, which looks unlikely for now. I’m terrible at projecting contracts though.

With the shortage of centers league wide why would he want that deal? Would be wise to test the market as his last pay day. There should be no rush at all to re-sign him.
Personally, I hope they do re-sign him and overpay.The plan all along was to re-sign him when he signed his current deal.

I don’t see any rush either. Wheels are starting to turn around the league now. Big EDM-PGH trade, which I think, sadly, PGH got the better of because of Kulak.
