    My guess is quite a few, especially since the Flyers are offering $25 tickets (while they last) to any person who goes to the Flyers ticket window with a stub from the Phils game.

    i'd like to go, but it's a bit of a drive so i'll have to settle for watching it on tv.


    Penguins didn't look good last night. I don't expect that to carry over to tonights game, but hopefully it does.

    JVR out tonite... no concussion symptoms but seems like a precaution, and I can't argue with it.

    Sucks having Betts out for 4 weeks though... guess we'll see alot of Ashame and Cote over the next month.

    the last 2 games have not been good for our defense. i am not concern yet but we have to fix that. we are still 3-1 this season so not going to kill myself for losing 1 game.

    Harts didn't bite anyone !


    Hartnell had a 15-minute conference call with league disciplinarian Colin Campbell at 10:00 a.m. this morning and it was later revealed that he would not be fined nor suspended.

    “[Letang] had me in a headlock, his free hand was in there, and I can’t tell you what happened but I definitely didn’t bite him,” said Hartnell after practice this morning at the Virtua Center Flyers Skate Zone. “I know he was complaining like he did, but his bare hand was scratching my face and hands were everywhere.”

    Hartnell is known to play a physical game while also trying to agitate his opponents.

    “I’m a pretty honest player, I think I’ve said that all along. I play the game hard; I play the game the right way. You don’t want to take liberties with anyone in fights, hits, or anything. I think if you ask guys in our dressing room here they’ll say the same thing, and around the league.

    “I like to chirp a little bit and get in the mix a little bit after the whistles, but that’s part of my game. That’s how I play, and that’s how I have to play to be effective.”

    Letang: It's what's for dinner :lol:

    As a Pens fan I'm not going to blindly say I think he did it, but he is one of the dirtiest players in the league and when there is no video evidence, nobody is ever going to admit to such a thing.

    Ha, like it's a stretch to think that douchebag would bite someone anyway.

    I'm in the minority of Flyer fans, as well as the League's front office, but I think he should've gotten a couple games. Yes, he lead with his shoulder, it wasn't a high hit at all, no intent to injure, and Richie didn't leave his feet. But it was an unnecessary blindside. It wasn't like Scott Stevens on Lindros, who had the puck, was cutting through the center, moving towards the net, and Stevens came head on.
    These things need to stop. I have a hard time swallowing the, "well, he didn't have time to make a quick decision." As someone, and I can't remember the cite, said of a hit earlier this year, these players make split decisions at super high speeds all the time. At some point, the attacking player needs to recognize that the opponent is vulnerable and pull up. No one can keep their head up and on a swivel every second of every game.

    On to new news, Gags seems injured. Again. At least the Rangers appear to have lost Gaborik, as all predicted.

    And who's DVRing tonight's game to go to Spectrum 1! Whoo! :mrgreen:

    nice little 5 game winning streak. shut down some hot teams during the streak.

    so far, there isn't much to dislike about this years team. hopefully they keep at it for the full season
