Flyers Sweep Home-and-Home series against Habs, head into Olympic break on 4 game win streak
The Flyers are holding on to the sixth spot in the Eastern Conference heading into the Olympic break, and it's all because they've swept the competition this past week. They finalized things Saturday night with a commanding victory over the Montreal Canadiens. The game was expected to be a blood bath after Friday night's match-up ended in a brawl, but aside from a few fisticuffs, and a scrap between Ian ...
Flyers Down Habs 3-2
The Flyers opened up a true home-and-home tonight in South Philly versus the Canadiens. Fresh off two come from behind wins over the Devils, the Flyers would look to move up in the very tight Eastern Conference race. Michael Leighton was again in goal for Philly while Carey Price was in for Montreal. Jeff Carter would get the Flyers on the board first, late in the first period. Briere picked ...
A comeback against Brodeur? With our offense? Nooo…
It happened, folks. Five minutes into the second period, I said to myself, "This game is over." The Flyers offense looked terrible. Passes weren't being completed and the simplest of breakouts and defensive plays were being terribly misplayed. It was a miracle that the score was as low as it was at that point in the game. Shortly after that, Jeff Carter delivered a debatable hit to Anssi Salmela (I'll have ...
Sleeping Flyers lose to Minnesota, 2-1
Two mistakes by Michael Leighton, sleeping offense, and a stunning performance by Anton Khudobin. That's the story of tonight's game. And that's really all I'm going to talk about here. In his first NHL start, the rookie Anton Khudobin made 38 saves on 39 shots. A lot of those shots were put right into his chest, though. The Flyers made Khudobin look better than he probably is. Or maybe he's good. ...

The Atlanta Thrashers have traded goaltender Kari Lehtonen to the Dallas Stars for top prospect, Ivan Vishnevskiy and a 4th round draft pick in 2010. This trade adds Lehtonen to an abundance of goaltenders in the Dallas Stars system, however, with all four of them set to become unrestricted free agents this summer, this move makes a lot of sense.
