Boucher: Lower Body Injury; Holmgren on Jones |
|

Whenever I hear "lower body" I think ... groin pull, especially, with a goalie ...that is the word from the Flyers.

I asked Flyers' GM Paul Holmgren what changed from FRI to today in deciding to put Randy Jones on waivers.
He replied, "I was under a lot of pressure by the media."
Holmgren still can crack a good one.
He won't be smiling now, though.
Looks like Brian Boucher got hurt here in NJ. He faced 3 shots and gave up one, bad goal in 11:54. Not been a good start for Boosh and this doesn't help.
Here's Holmgren's reaction to Jones in my story on CSNPhilly.com:

Randy Jones was finally waived today.
His price tag to claim him off waivers if $15,000.
Will the Rangers collect him? Or hopes he clears and then see if they can coax the Flyers to send him through re-entry from the Phantoms?
It should play out by Monday.
