Scott Laughton scored a power play goal and a power play assist in the Oshawa Generals' 5-1 blowout win over Peterborough last night. Colin Suellentrop had two power play assists. Derek Mathers had nine penalty minutes for the Petes. The Generals are back in action tonight against the Belleville Bulls. Game time is 7:05 PM eastern. A
streaming radio feed of the Belleville broadcasters is available for free or you can
purchase a webcast for $6.99.
Nick Cousins scored the game-tying goal and had an earlier assist in the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds' 4-3 comeback victory over the Sarnia Sting last night. Cousins, who finished plus-three for the game, tied the game at 3-3 in the third period just 30 seconds after Andrew Fritsch trimmed the deficit to a single goal. The Greyhounds are back in action tonight against the Saginaw Spirit. Game time is 7:10 eastern. Click

Fredric Larsson's Brynäs J20 team fell to the Leksand J20 squad by a 4-3 score in SuperElit action in Sweden earlier today. Larsson had an even plus-minus (plus one, minus one for the game) and about three blocked shots. A
replay of the streaming webcast is available for free via Brynäs' Bambuser site.

Ilya Bryzgalov is scratched today for CSKA, as the team takes on Automobilist. Rastislav Stana, who recorded a shutout on Monday, returns to the net as starter. Ilya Proskuryakov is serving as the CSKA backup goalie today.
Jakub Voracek's HC Lev Prague club is back in action today against Traktor Chelyabinsk. As of this writing, the game is tied 2-2 at the first intermission. Voracek has not figured in the scoring so far today. A
free webcast feed is available for the game.
Ruslan Fedotenko's HC Donbass Donetsk club is idle today.
Wayne Simmonds did not get on the score sheet yesterday, while his buddy, Chris Stewart, assisted on the game winning goal in Eispiraten's 2-1 overtime win yesterday over Lausitzer Füchse in Bundesliga action. The Ice Pirates' next game is tomorrow.

HockeyBuzz readers selected Rick Tocchet for the final starting spot in the forward lineup of the All-Time Flyers Roster. Keith Primeau took the reserve forward spot in the vote, beating out Dave Poulin, Mike Richards, Rick MacLeish and others in the vote.
Personally, I'd have voted for MacLeish over Claude Giroux (but that could easily change in a couple more years) and Poulin over Primeau without a second thought. But the vox populi shall be served!
Here is the final roster selected by our readers.

Bobby Clarke (C)
Eric Lindros (C)
Claude Giroux (C)
Rod Brind'Amour (C)
John LeClair (LW)
Bill Barber (LW)
Brian Propp (LW)
Simon Gagne (LW)
Tim Kerr (RW)
Reggie Leach (RW)
Mark Recchi (RW)
Rick Tocchet (RW)
Keith Primeau (C) -- Reserve forward
DEFENSE
Mark Howe
Eric Desjardins
Brad McCrimmon
