Milano had 2 goals Mick
I watched the game - it was a mismatch. Looked like the Flyers just didn't show or care. The Caps looked fantastic, but i dunno if the flyers just had young guys out or what, and their goalie was suspect and appeared very small in net - corners were open ALOT and we took advantage.
And it really was 6-1. Iorio put one in that hit the back bar and bounced out but the refs didn't see it. You could clearly see it on the replay, but they didnt have ref replay review so....no goal. The whole team was laughing about it.
All the the young guys with a legit shot at a spot are playing extremely well. Miro looks good, and skating stronger and definitely has a drive to go to the net. Lappy looks fantastic, Miro has been a sniper
I think on a team that had the room Cristal, Lappy, Miro and Milano would all get a spot. Hard to say just based on 2 preseason games, but Lappy and Milano certainly have earned one.
Miro and Cristal have looked really good too, but I think if nothing else their AHL eligibility will send them to Hershey. Not sure what that means for Leanord, but I assume he will play in the AHL.
We have all these super talented young guys, but they also all are pretty small....Leonard and Cristall, and even Miro, although Miro appears to have put on some weight without losing a step - he had a pretty power drive move goal last night.
Nice to see them doing well - not that it means anything. It really looked like it was Men vs boys last night...even though some of our men are still boys.
