Sergei Bobrovsky and the Flyers play host to the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight down at the Well. Philly is going to try to break the two game losing streak tonight against a familiar foe. This is going to be a blue collar game, with plenty of physical action (read: ton of penalties) and a close game (read: probably a 14-12 final score). The Leafs are a quality hockey team, they are no longer considered the bottom dregs of the Eastern Conference. Brian Burke has assembled a quality core of young forwards, and a hard nosed blue line. Sound familiar? For a game against this Leafs, there is a ton of subplots to tonight's game. Jody Shelley is making his first start of the season after being suspended in the preseason. Looking like he'll sub in for Nodl, who while decent on the PK, hasn't amounted to much in the offensive zone. Matt Walker is also looking to be dressed tonight as the Flyers try to stock up their arms against the very physical Leafs team. There is also some Schenn on Schenn action tonight as Braydon takes on his older brother Luke. Braydon hasn't looked that bad, but the teams losing funk and his call up from the Phantomscan't be unrelated. Both teams are still feeling out their new parts, and tonight's game is already very important to both clubs. Stopping Phil Kessel will be a big part of tonight's gameplan. Scientists believe he is on pace for 115 goals and a 436 points this year. He's come out of the gate scorching hot and has scored some very timely goals in games for the Leafs, helping them stay atop the Northeast
