Flyers Brain Freeze – February 8

A collection of random Flyers thoughts that may occasionally make your head hurt. This Is What Simon Gagne Must Feel Like Right Now I haven’t contributed anything to the Flyers discussion since January 19, which would suggest a prolific blogging drought on my part. For the last three weeks, I’ve been happy to sit back and watch my

Flyers must head into Olympic break winners

February 8, 2010

The Philadelphia haven’t had an easy past week. Besides the dismantling of the Calgary Flames a week ago today, they’ve hit yet another wall. The wall that currently restricts them is the act of scoring goals. The Flyers were shutout by the putrid Edmonton Oilers 1-0 last Wednesday, then scored one meaningless goal in a 2-1 loss to the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. A scoring drought is something the Flyers do not need at this time. The Flyers have two home-and-homes coming this week before they hit the Olympic break. The New Jersey Devils will be first up for the Flyers tonight from the Wachovia Center, then on Wednesday in New Jersey

Flyers Gameday: The Battle of Bon Jovi

February 8, 2010

Tonight the streaky Flyers being a home and home with the New Jersey Devils. If you count the two games between the division leading Devils, and the two games between the Canadiens (who are 3 points ahead of us in the East), this last week before the Olympics is quite possible the most important 4 game stretch of the season. After finishing off what looked to be a "lay-up" road trip with two embarrassing loses, the Flyers return home to host Ilya Kovulchuk and the Devils on a nationally televised game. (With Keith Jones doing play-by play) The Battle for the Turnpike always brings out the best in these two clubs. Sure, the Devils-Rangers and Flyers-Penguins get top "rival" billing, but no other team in the East the type of history that the Flyers and Devils do.

Mike Richards is a young guy with a considerable amount of pressure on his shoulders. He's playing in a town where the fan base is knowledgeable and rabid, and the media is tough and mostly unforgiving. So you can't blame a guy for trying to downplay the team's scoring difficulties and deflect some of the pressure of dropping two very winnable games. However, with 26 games to go in this quickly closing 2009-10 NHL season, I'm not sure what we want to hear is "no worries, mon". The Flyers are currently tied for 3rd with the Rags at 59 points and barely holding onto the 8th and final spot in the playoff race, with five teams nipping at their heels. While it's not a panic button moment, it's certainly something that should be taken seriously
