Voracek in a sentence

It was 5-1 when Voracek scored from a sharp angle on the power play with 9:46 remaining.

With down on the ice with Voracek caught behind him Myers blows into the offensive zone for a 2-on-1 with Couturier against McAvoy.

Fourth year forward Travis Konecny has stepped up in the absence of Giroux and Voracek producing.

Maybe, because the talent is there: Claude Giroux, Jake Voracek, James van Riemsdyk and Sean Couturier all have some heavy miles on their skates but are still productive veterans.

Nolan Patrick had a goal and two assists, Scott Laughton and Shayne Gostisbehere each had a goal and an assist and Jakub Voracek scored for the Flyers, who began play eight points behind Pittsburgh for the last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Twice in this period Forsling made a diving swat at the puck, and successful stripped it from both and Voracek.

Couturier was in perfect position for the rebound and made an elite level pass to Voracek for the tap-in, and a 1-0 Flyers lead.

Jake Voracek had the first chance to end things in the overtime less than a minute in, taking a Couturier pass right to the doorstep of Carey Price but he fired a backhand attempt up and over the glass.

Jake Voracek looked like more of his usual self again on Saturday, posting a goal and an assist after potting a goal against Ottawa on Tuesday that ended a five-game scoreless skid.

Just a remarkable individual effort by Voracek, and one that led to Oskar Lindblom’s first NHL point at that!

Let’s also not discount the impact Voracek had on prized rookie Nolan Patrick.

Look at the Penguins’ and Flyers’ rosters now and the likes of Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Phil Kessel, Voracek and Claude Giroux are far more likely to beat someone with a slick shot than their fists.

Puck squirts through Mrazek after he makes a save on his own post, it sits out in front of the open net for a second, and Voracek gets there to clear it before Columbus gets an easy go-ahead goal.

Recency bias may be a hell of a drug, but the past month from Konecny has been his best month in the NHL other than maybe the first one of his career (when he lit it up with Voracek and Couturier).

Sean Couturier was initially credited with Philadelphia’s goal before it was given to Jakub Voracek after the game.

Strong efforts from the Jakub Voracek-led second line (unsurprisingly) and the Matt Read-led fourth line (somewhat more surprisingly) helped the Flyers’ depth keep Colorado at bay here.

There were a lot of culprits here, Voracek specifically, but also Provorov and Travis Sanheim, who frankly left Hart out to dry here.

They controlled off the opening faceoff, and were able to get the puck to Voracek for a shot, but Bobrovsky stopped it and got the puck for his own side.

They were kept off the board in the goals department, but both Sean Couturier and Claude Giroux were able to pick up assists, as they worked to set up Jakub Voracek and Shayne Gostisbehere’s goals, respectively.

Voracek stayed productive and managed to remain an effective play driver despite the limitations of his linemates.
