7th or so? Blue Jackets would have snatched him though.

Saw this post on the Flyers' Facebook and thought it was really cool:

"Hello my name is A------ C-------- and I'm a fan of the flyers, I live in Salta, a city just north of Argentina in South America, and every time I can see the flyers games, I practice in my city and the roller hockey cun're trying to insert some friends in my city this fabulous sport to us For we find it very difficult to move forward with the project since my country Argentia only live soccer with passion, an Lionel Messi, the world's best course jejej but hey delighted to cominicarme with flyers and I would like to receive a reply to this message exchange.
I dream to one day go to a Flyers game live and with the shirt or Briere Voracek Giorux or .... and brygazlov. flyers continue this winning streak like yesterday against the Capitals ...
Love flyers and hope to receive a reply to this message well and are in contact."

This was me 15 years ago when I used to watch hockey on ESPN in India. It just happened that the first game I watched had the Flyers in it and it was amazing watching 88 play. He was the reason I became a fan of the Flyers and hockey in general. It was a dream come true going to my first Flyers game when they visited the Blackhawks in Dec 08 although it wasn't a fun game for Flyers fans (We lost 5-1). What's even better was when I visited Philly in '10 and watched a couple of games at the WFC. It was cool meeting BoDiva then. I also visited the Skatezone to see the Flyers practice and got pictures with Lappy, Gagne and Hartnell, G, and someothers.

That's awesome. Are you from India or where you just living there?

That is a cool story. It's awesome that you were able to embrace something that was probably so foreign to what you grew up around.

I used to play roller hockey. Probably why I love the sport so much. In my opinion, no other sport is as exciting as playoff hockey.

I agree wholeheartedly. That's the sport at it's finest.

Yeah. My coworkers tease me that I probably am the only person from India who loves hockey so much. They ask me if I'm a fan of the Blackhawks yet and I tell them, "Once a Flyers fan, always a Flyers fan."

I started watching hockey when ESPN International came to New Zealand satellite TV in the early 90s, and I also started supporting the Flyers because of Lindros. There was a really exciting game against Buffalo on October 12th, 1993 that the Flyers won 5-3 that I watched while I was home sick from school, and that was enough to make me a fan.

Then 10 years later I happened to move to Delaware where being able to watch every game on TV instead of just a few Flyers games a season was kind of a dream come true. But I've only been to see one game live; their 4-3 OT win over Carolina last month.

There are lots of folks from India in and around the Vancouver area who are Canucks fans.

Yeah, I've heard that from other people as well. Lots of Sikhs are hockey fans. I believe there is a radio station in Vancouver which broadcasts games in Punjabi.

It's cool that you are so close Philly and get to watch everygame on TV. I need to get the center ice page or game center live. I joke with my wife that I should find a job in Philly and we should relocate there so I can get to watch more Flyers games live.
