The former Red Wings VP and hall-of-famer has begun a resurrection in Tampa Bay, bringing in key players new and old. Did anyone really see this coming? Steve Yzerman became the General Manager of the Tampa Bay Lightning on May 25th, and made a handful of amazing moves before his seat was even warm. The [...]
I’m surprised to see how fast everyone is bailing on the Flyers considering everything this team has been through this year. This team has defied all of the odds several times. They have played with more heart than any Flyers team I have seen in years. Ian Laperierre takes a puck to the mouth and [...]
If you read my earlier blogs you saw that I had picked the Flyers to win this series in 7 games. There’s no way in hell that I thought the series would be this quick but it was. That goes for the western series as well. There are many reasons the Flyers series against the [...]
The Flyers have to be thrilled with how things are playing out in this series so far. They are up 2 games to none and really haven’t played their best hockey yet. In Game 2 especially, the Flyers were not sharp. Defensively they held the fort pretty well and Leighton has been square to the [...]
The Flyers newest marketing campaign for Game 3 against Boston was “Philly Tough.” That’s exactly the opposite of what I saw on the ice for Game 3. I saw no chemistry on the ice. I saw a lackluster power play yet again. I have heard a lot of people in the Delaware Valley defending the [...]
Well, I sure as heck didn’t see this coming. Apparently, neither did Flyers head coach Peter Laviolette. Laviolette admitted to reporters today that he had been showing videotape of the club’s games vs. the Washington Capitals in practice this past week ever since the Caps went up 3-1. Can you blame him? No 8th seed [...]
All season long, the Flyers have been plagued with inconsistency and falling short of expectations. For whatever reason, against the New Jersey Devils this season, the Flyers have looked like the team all of us expected them to be. During the regular season when the Flyers went 5-1 against New Jersey and handled them pretty [...]
Well I can’t think of any worse news for the Flyers can you? It doesn’t get much worse than the two blows that they were dealt today when forwards Simon Gagne and Jeff Carter had tests done to reveal that they both would need to have surgery to repair fractures in their feet. At first [...]
By Mike Miccoli, Boston Bruins correspondent Funny how every time Dennis Wideman touched the puck, the Bruins fans let out a chorus of boos usually reserved for guys like Mike Komisarek, Phil Kessel and even Matt Cooke. Funny, too, how it was Wideman who would score the goal on Thursday night against the Buffalo Sabres [...]
As we enter the final week of regular season play, only Ovechkin and Co. know what their final seeding will be. Having run away with their division with 114 points, the Capitals will win the President’s Trophy, finishing first overall in the league. The balance of the Eastern Conference boils down to two dogfights: [...]
