good snow story when he was with the pens...i went to isles pens at coliseum ..tickets were right next to the runway where pens backup goalie sits for those who don't know...snow was the backup
i was whacked and just started talking to him normal and he was more than happy to have a convo considering the pens were getting blown out
by the middle of the 2nd i convinced him to let me try on his glove and blocker...swear to god....
the isles fans figured i was his cousin or something
then someone on the isles got a hat trick and all the collected hats were put in a bag and put by snow...he gets up and hands me the whole bag ...im like wtf AM I GONNA DO WITH THIS SHIT SNOW
so i was just throwing them up to the seats around me ...
man that was an awesome time....always have love for snow for being so cool
game ended got up shook hands and went on my way....by that time we need each other's life story
thats my story...carry on
Nice story...he was a strange dude
Remember those shoulder pads he used to wear ?

goal scoring has gone in teh crapper
i thought the flyers played ok. they had a few long shifts in the offensive zone but couldn't connect. first few power plays looked good outside of not getting a goal on them.
the D man blew a tire leading to the first goal, although i thought the guy in front of the net should have slid over to take the puck carrier.
second goal was sort of flukey.
3 rd goal, well, power play with a D man without a stick. that's one thing i just don't get. i don't knwo the statistics, but i sure would like to see a player that is stickless go grab a stick regardless of what is going on.

James Johnson traded to the Raptors for Miami's 1st round pick which will likely be bottom 5.
You knew this was coming when he was sent down to the D league. That was nothing more than a showcase.
Hopefully for him, he gets some playing time up there and becomes the player i think he can be.
If there was any question who should be the playoff starting goalie I hope it's been answered in recent games. Bob is just to inconsistent at this point.
Of course, the whole team play pretty lousy, and I was just happy they got a point out of it.

i don't know if i agree with that. Bob has been solid all season. Last nights second goal was his first real bad goal of the season that i've seen. 1st and 3rd goals, the blame goes to D.
That said, i'd be ok with either guy between the pipes come playoff time. They both have the same exact save %, although Bob's GAA is slightly higher. Not sure why he faces more shots on average unless you think he's giving up more rebounds, which would sort of suprise me.

The first 2 goals he gave up to Carolina were horrible. Then he was great the rest of the game. I'd rather have steady then awful/great.

damn, i can't remember those goals specifically. i do recall Carolina coming out with guns ablazing. They were seriously fired up for that game.
zherdev gone - best part of the story below is that when Richards got sick at Carolina the Flyers couldn't find Zherdev so they quickly had Shelley dress instead.

Upshall given a 2 game suspension for his hit on Bartulis
that's a joke
odonnell isn't gonna be out long. they will find a warm body for the 6th spot until he gets back. I'm not too worried.
does cutting zherdev get them any extra cap space? I'm assuming it does
Like I said I think because Bartulis had a season ending injury..but I have seen worse hits this year then that an NO suspension..Campbell is very inconsistent
I think it does if he gets picked up by another team...but good luck with that one
rumors floating : Adam Foote or McCabe to the Flyers..McCabe has a NTC though

I could actually see the pens going after zherdev.
adam foote . what, brad mccrimmon isn't available?

that's a joke. the hit wasn't even that bad. bartulis wasn't really close to the boards...he just didn't see upshall coming and he got launched.

The waive saves a few dolllars. I think i read today that they have 2.9 to play with..
Sean skated yesterday for 40 minutes so im not too concerned unless somebody goes down for a long time. A good 7th guy would be nice, but going to be tough to find a decent one

I love richards, but he has been awful for the last month or so. I hope he's not hurt
Also, giroux is awesome
That 2nd goal by PHX was horrible
BOB bounced back though and gave them a chance
PP awful again

just read that Sean may come back for the next game. he said if it was the playoffs, he'd be out there.
imo, i'd call somebody up and go ahead and let sean get 100%.
Of course, the whole team play pretty lousy, and I was just happy they got a point out of it.

SO MUCH TALENT ..but it just never works out w/ him
Oskar has a dislocated shoulder and walker is having surgery done on his knee. great.
bring up guy number 9 on the depth chart.
Sean will be back in there.
I'm assuming if Bartulis gets right up no suspension ?
Edit : Bartulis out for the season !
Homer better burn up those phone lines for some depth

I agree on the suspension. Bit excessive
You're right, he would fit in well with the caps. They are a bitch team
Crossman...haha.
