    Never pay any attention to ESPN when it comes to hockey, though they did make a stellar move by picking up Pierre LeBrun to write for the website.

    The Hockey News picked us to go fourth in the Conference. That seems reasonable.

    Loved watching yesterday's game. Perfect moment with Snider presenting Richards with the C in front of all the old captains, and then Richie going out and scoring 2 shorthanded goals. I love this kid. I have some more thoughts on my very modest blog: http://neutralzonedoubt.blogspot.com/

    And hey, what about those Phils?!!

    Richie is the man!

    Flyers Release Dowd, Berard and Others in Preparation for Season Opener

    The Philadelphia Flyers announced that they have assigned 13 players to their American Hockey League affiliate, the Philadelphia Phantoms.

    Among those reassigned were defensemen Oskars Bartulis, Tim Ramholt and Mike Ratchuk; forwards Rob Bellamy, Frederik Cabana, Matt Clackson, Garrett Klotz, David Laliberte, Ned Lukacevic, Patrick Maroon, Jon Matsumoto and Nate Raduns; and goaltender Jeremy Duchesne.

    In addition, the Flyers have released defensemen Tim Branham, Brad Brown and forwards Igor Karlov, Mike Kaye and Dennis Packard from their pro tryouts and forward Mike Hoffman from his amateur tryout.

    Also, Maxime Oullet was released from his pro tryout as well.

  • I was somewhat surprised Berard was released. He had a good preseason.

    I was somewhat surprised Berard was released. He had a good preseason.

    No cap room. Ed Moran also says that we are already carrying 49 out of the allowable 50 contracts. I think it was part of the numbers game on D. As of now it's: Timonen-Coburn
    Jones-Vaananen
    Eminger-Parent
    Kukkonen-Sbisa

    Berard is a nice story, and while he looked good in preseason, the guy has no history of being able to play actual defense since the eye injury. We don't need a strictly offensive D-man who is a turnover machine in his own zone. Every one of our current roster, except maybe Kukkonen and Vaananen, are reliable, good puckmovers. All can play in their own end too.

    I think Sbisa's the most interesting case. He's been fantastic, playing well beyond his years in the preseason. I imagine they'll keep him up for his 10 games before sending him back to junior, especially since there are some minor injuries on D right now.

    Just heard that Sarah Palin will be dropping the first puck at the game on Saturday... just an FYI to anyone going to expect tight security. Not trying to start A Moving Train discussion.

    The game was less physical than the all-star game. If one of the farm team players injured Gagne or Briere or Richards, they knew their careers would be over. :)
