Joel Farabee makes good first impression as #Flyers fall to Islanders, 3-1, in exhibition opener https://t.co/XspgKLgru9
AV: "I liked the effort from [Hayes'] line. I expect more and more will come as their timing gets better. They spent a lot of time in the offensive zone and didn’t get probably as much as they would have liked. But their time spent in the offensive zone was good."
AV on Zamula: "I see that there’s a young kid there that’s got good mobility and can make good plays with the puck. Tonight, against an NHL opponent, I really liked his poise and his demeanor on the ice. I thought stick-wise and mobility-wise, he did a lot of good things."
AV on Farabee: " I think everyone can see the skillset. I didn’t think he was as good tonight as what I’ve seen, but some of that comes from the opposition. They did some good things. I like that kid: his skill level, that he can play in tight. We got a good young player there."
Farabee: "I didn't have a lot of time and space out there. ...I think I need to be a little better at finding space where I can make a play and not just dump it in."
Chris Stewart: "I think [physicality] is important but at the end of the day they don’t ask me what I think. ...You can’t just fight, you can’t just be physical, you have to chip in offensively too. You’ve got to forecheck, you’ve got to backcheck. It’s a 200 foot game."
Chris Stewart: "That guy [Burroughs] caught me with my head down and laid me out as expected. Kudos to him, he answered the bell and gave me another chance to step up. I have a lot of respect for him, that’s for sure."
Brian Elliott: "The first period was a little bit shaky. No one was really talking to anybody, or was quite sure where to go with the puck. That's to be expected at this point. It's something we'll work on and practice and the games to come."
AV: "What you saw from Justin Braun tonight, I think you'll see throughout the season. Consistent. The heaviness. Covering the rush, his gaps are good. He's always got his stick -- or something -- in the way of the opposition."
Hays: "New teams, new players, new coaches. You can play as many games as you want in the summer and training camp, but nothing really emulates that. I think there was a total of 6 or 7 shots that actually hit the net for both teams in the first period there."
AV: "There was mental awareness of what they were trying to do. As you're trying to learn a system, it's like driving your car. You know when to press brake, and when to press gas. System wise it's the same thing. You see what's there and you know what you've got to do."

Kevin Hayes shows exactly why #Flyers were drawn to him (and he could help a key teammate), the latest on Joel Farabee, bottom-six stuff and more. https://t.co/Kvli1F4epm
And this happened in NJ.
JACK WITH OT GAME-WINNER! https://t.co/4H5g5H8sAt
The #Islanders scored early in the third period and were able to hold on to defeat the #Flyers in the preseason opener. RECAP: https://t.co/ZRzC66Iicz #FlyersTalk
McMichael and Protas had good first preseason games for Washington.
Adam Boqvist obviously is highly skilled offensively. Will see if he plays well enough in his own end to stick with Chicago to start season.
Damien Riat is under contract for one more season in Swizterland, so he's heading back there later this week. Season has already started there.
Said maybe will try to play in North America next season.
I’ve never been so pumped for mono! This graphic 😂😂😂
