Flyers Today : Ivan Provorov has been terribly bad lately

The Flyers lost (4-1) for the sixth straight time yesterday against the St.Louis Blues. The only player who scored for the orange and black was Oskar Lindblom.

1. What is going on with Ivan Provorov? He finished the game with a minus-4 rating and was directly responsable for the second Blues empty netter. His strength is his play with the puck but he really regressed in the last weeks in that category. He has 5 points in his last 15 games.

I wonder if a change of scenery could benefit him. It's pretty unlikely that a trade involving him will see the day, but you never know.

2. The Sanheim-Ristolainen was good, again. The former got a point for a third straight game. They are forming a really good duo.

3. Konecny and Lindblom have been on a roll lately.

4. Martin Jones was good in front of his net. He made 22 saves on 24 shots. Without him, the Blues could have won this game 6-1 instead of 4-1.

5. The Kraken, an expansion team, has won more games than the Flyers this year.

6. That's horrific. The Flyers lost 19 of their last 21 games. Can they make it 10 losses in a row for a third straight time this season ?

7. Isaac Ratcliffe has been good, once again. Oh, and, keep Morgan Frost on this first PP unit. He looked really good yesterday.

8. The Flyers are off today. They'll return to practice tomorrow at 11 AM. Next game will be on Saturday against the Capitals.
