Simmonds scores twice as Flyers snap Predators' win streak
Printable View
Why? The Flyers beat a Western conference team, the Preds, whom the Kings are trying to catch. Simmonds did the Kings a favor.
Great strategy by DL.
He knew Simmonds was gonna do that to Nashville.
What a hockey mind!
10 SOGs for Simmonds and Schenn had an assist, was a +2 to lead the team, had 3 blocked shots to lead the team, had 5 hits to lead the team, and almost assisted on another doorstep shot by Simmonds.
KINGS LOSE!
I'm glad Simmonds is doing so well. Schenn isn't doing too bad either. I'd still take Richards any day of the week.
There is no way in hell Simmonds would have that many goals on the Kings this year. And there's no way in hell Richards wouldn't have more points playing for the Flyers.
How does Matt Reid get the first star of that game with just 1 goal and Simmer is second star with 2 goals?
Wayne got 2 more PPGs tonight to hit 20 for the season. Great job, Simmer! Any bets on 30?
EDIT: And that Giroux guy had 5 assists. Guess he's all the way back from his concussion.
This x100. Richards would be up there right behind Giroux in points, and Simmonds would have about seven goals and 11 assists. Such is the difference playing for a team with awful goaltending that knows it needs to score to win, and a team that builds its entire philosophy around keeping the puck out of its own net at all costs.
