Well as some expected, it’s another bad start for the Flyers
this year. After the first three games of the season, their record is 0-2-1.
Yup, no wins yet. The most frustrating part about it is that they finally
looked like they were going to get a win on Saturday against Montreal. They had
a 3-0 lead for the majority of the game. I think the Flyers forgot how to play
defense for a period. They made their goalie fend for himself for awhile. The
Habs were able to tie it up and send the game into overtime. After five minutes
of sudden death overtime, a shootout had to decide the outcome of the game.
Unfortunately, Montreal won. On the bright side, the Flyers finally got a point
in the standings from that game! It was very heartbreaking to watch though.
However, one of the top forwards, Vincent Lecavalier, sustained a lower body
injury and will be out about two weeks. This gives a chance for the young guys
to step up and fill in some big skates. While it is so nice to have hockey
back, I don’t always like the stress that comes with it! I guess that is just a
side effect of being a Philadelphia fan!
