The more shocking development:

ROSTER NEWS: #Flyers have recalled (D) Andreas Lilja from the Phantoms.

He deserves a home send off for all of his valuable contributions to the flyers squad the past 2 years
- funmaster18


Actually, he has done good work with the young guys in ADK according to a guy that came on here with good AHL knowledge (I forget his username).

Hey, I would have never guessed it either, but apparently, he's been helpful down there. Maybe the org gives him a permanent coaching role with the AHL squad?

"Now, when facing a 2-on-2, if the player on your side has the puck, always play not quite to the inside or to the outside to allow the player to either go around you to the net or cut to the middle for a prime scoring chance. If the player on the other side has it, make sure to overcommit towards the player with the puck him to leave your man open for a breakaway."

Actually, this is more like Bruno Gervais. I like Lilja and I know he gives it his all. I say give him a nice send-off with Knuble and hopefully they do something good out there.

Schenn-Lauri
Gus-Manning
Lilja-Konan

Bring it on Boston!!!
this game could end very ugly. Please start Bryz and not Mason. We dont need Mason getting shelled.

If I'm Luke Schenn, I might be asking to be a healthy scratch at this point. Shortened season, but we wouldn't know it by the attrition.

ever since he last injured it... my guess is he's been playing through it since we still had a chance at playoffs--- now that we're out no point in injuring it further

Bryz may go full-on Ned Braden after this game and start doffing his equipment in the middle of the 2nd period.

We dont need Masons confidence any lower, and Bryz has pretty much hit rock bottom with that, so start Bryz please

This would honestly be like miracle on ice if we win this game--- Boston will pot atleast 4. Wouldnt be surprised to see 7-8

I might not even bother watching

To make our case even worse, Khudobin is starting, and #1 he had a shutout in his first EVER NHL Start against us when he was a Wild, and #2 hes a backup

Honestly, I'd be okay if 6 of those 7-8 are by Jagr.
