@MNSOTA wrote up the game preview, I will be on the post-gamer tonight.  These two teams seem fairly evenly matched, although the Flyers have given Minnesota a lot of problems over the last few years.  Staying out of the penalty box will be important with our penalty kill struggling mightily as long as Suter and Dumba keep getting the lion's share of the minutes with a man down.  No Konecny and no Lindblom...enjoy and discuss...

My tip for the game: watch that big and badly himself positioning Hayes. And I'm not talking about Eriah. Attack that line with speed and you'll get some scoring chances. He's even worse bang for the buck than Koivu.

 

A chance for an honorable, needed loss.

I don't mind the earlier end to the game...my gripe is that I get done with work at 5:30, so I have to quickly pick something up for us (I didn't feel like cooking tonight) and scarf it down before it starts.

Clearly, they should have consulted you ;)

Jokes.

Good sales tonight....not sure if philly fans are here or if locals are encouraged by recent games

on TV I've seen a few Philly Jerseys and they almost seem a little more prevalent/noticeable than other teams who come to play.
