Yeah, I'll definitely take Gustafsson, Timonen (who seemed destined for the IR at the time), and Meszaros over Lilja, Gervais, and Foster.

No doubt.

Has been some freaky type injuries. I hope he isn't made of glass. Only way to prove otherwise is to stay on the ice.

Here's to hoping, they sure could use him.

what happened with kimmo? he gon b alright??????

I think they have no trouble getting up for games against the Pens.
It's the losses to the Caps and getting blown out in Montreal that are tough.
Growing pains I guess.

I'm expecting Pittsburgh's "A" game this Wednesday. The Flyers will have their hands full on Wednesday.

He came back and finished the game after going to the locker room in the middle of the 2nd period, although he didn't play much in the third because of the score.

Don't know what was wrong, sorry.

I like the kid.

He gets no respect. Reminds me of Andy Reid.

he's been as good as anyone can hope for. A little off his game in NJ, otherwise very good.
- PLindbergh31

I hope for more. He's played well above expectation I'd even say but with his contract I want him to steal a game once in aWhile. Not gonna happen so guess will just wait for the meltdown. Just imagine if pelle lived. That's the last goalie to steal us wins except a few from hexy.

I'd put Couts out there against Malkin and Neal and let him do his magic.

If the PK stays hot and Bryz keeps it up they'll have a shot.

But yeh, it will be tough to win there.

Not true. I can totally see past him to the sundae fixin's bar.

Be nice if Couts started scoring more. Still very young though.

Minus the facial hair, exceptional hockey skills, and 200 pounds....I see where you're coming from

He has stole his share of games thus far as a Flyer. There is a misconception that he was terrible last year. That isn't true. He was just very inconsistent. He had 6 shutouts last year.

So you don't think Bryzgalov has done that this Season or last Season? Did you notice the number of times Bryzgalov bailed out his teammates today with big saves?

gotcha. thanks for the update marc

In all seriousness I am a Gustafsson supporter. Is he the next Timonen or Pronger no not at all. I do think he's a young kid with some skills. He is the type of player that makes a difference over the course of a season. The "role player" as they say.

Wait and see what the Captain does! I think, or I'm hoping that that today was the turn around for him.

Just curious does anyone miss abc I mean jvr? I'm liking that trade more and more every game.

If this team would've scored a little more in the last few weeks and won a few of those close games, Bryz would have "stolen" the majority of their (hypothetical) wins this season.

He's a solid player but this team needed defense so trading for Schenn makes sense. Some think Homer could of landed more but its a pretty even trade.

Just finished watching great to see G walking the walk. Also great to see Briere show up. This could be a huge game for the team this season.

Why no McGinn in the line up?

Play looked like offsides. Hard to call in real time though.
- PLindbergh31

you're talking about the blown stickle call? even in real time it was clear as day it was offside. it's so wrong that goal counted, there aren't enough words.

:33 second mark. not to mention the blown potvin high stick goal. just awful.
