Bill Meltzer: Flyers Gameday: 1/14/13 @ Buffalo

Thanks Bill! I'll be there tonight!

A lineup void of Rinaldo, and Rosehill?!

Do you believe in miracles?!!!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

The Flyers need two points tonight and Thursday. Two extremely winnable games. Also, would love to see the Preds leave Weber with the Flyers as they leave Philly on Thursday. I can dream right?

Buffalo is in western New York. Just saying....

Buffalo is the armpit of New York. Just saying....

Ha I see what you did there

Buffalo's been playing much better as of late. Will not be an easy game at all, and the Flyers better come ready to play.

On a side note, the comments in the Kings blog have put Canucks fans as my second most hated fanbase, overtaking Montreal and sitting just behind Toronto. It's one thing to be angry about a game, and another to wish horrible injuries to an entire team.

Time to get Gusty back in there and playing.

Sestito played 1 second last night, and had 27PIMS

Who comes out of the lineup?
I suppose the current 6 dmen can engage in a rock, paper, scissor tournament.

Vandevelde out, seven D is an option, with Streit getting PP minutes and offensive zone starts.

I can't see them sitting Streit or Grossmann but I hate that pairing.

I'd like to see the highlight. I guess he jumped Nolan.

He grabbed Nolan off the face off, dropped gloves and started punching and Nolan never dropped his gloves .

Kings had a seven minute PP to start the game and it included over a minute of 5 on 3 and they didn't score!

Flyers west indeed

Good idea Marc. I would be fine with that.

Tomahawk has been saying this for a while
Not my idea but I agree with trying it

That was from 24/7, forget which episode. I like this 24/7 clip better (NSFW)... btw, this clown had 0:01 of playing time before getting tossed out last night (edit: oops laught):

Pens fans are pretty tame. For the most part, they can act civil unless you rile them up. Also, much like Caps fans, they didn't really exist in the mass numbers they do now until 2007. Toronto fans and Montreal fans act like it's their birth right to have the Cup every year, and if you think the Flyers fanbase can be fickle game-to-game, check out a Leafs blog after they win, and the same blog after they lose.

Canucks fans are just callous, belligerent people who want nothing more than to cause long-term injuries to the opposition and then whine when a clean check is applied to one of their players, all while complaining about diving as Kesler somersaults across the ice...but somehow, Toronto fans are just worse.

That was the only clip I saw. I turned on NHL Network as I was heading to bed, and they had live cut-in, and I saw this. It was pretty ridiculous.
