David Clarkson makes his debut, and will be on a line with Foligno and Johansen.

Those two can make guys look good...


Dubinski and Calvert are both out indefinitely with concussions. McIlhiney in net, Dansk backing him up. Bobrovsky was on the ice for a full morning practice, and stayed on another 45 minutes alone with the goalie coach. Will be back shortly, it seems.


HA! Edit: Dansk sent to Springy. Bob off IR and will back up Tabasco tonight. Likely to play against Pitt tomorrow.

And some more good news; One Punch Prout is back too.

Panthers need a win desperately today - better get it against Buffalo - and they need to start scoring the first goal, they've given up the first goal in 16 of their last 21 games

Also, the Flyers are looking to beat the Rangers for the first time in this century

 

[wings-pens2166]

pulling for Carolina and Toronto, but just can't make myself do the same for philly. the best I can do there is say I hope NYR loses.

 

[dash]

I can't root for Colorado, I'll just root against the Wild...

 

[Cobiemonster]

lmao Cody Hodgson just scored

17th time in 22 games that the Panthers give up the first goal - sheesh

Sabres are showcasing Cody Hodg...Nope, couldn't quite finish that sentence.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Mesz makes it 2-0 Sabres on a goal Lou should have had

This isn't pretty right now

 

[Cobiemonster]

Time for the Panthers to start declining power plays

6th power play of the game and they haven't scored on the first five

 

[Cobiemonster]

Just as I say that, Pirri gets the Panthers on the board and makes it 2-1

He's the sniper for the Cats at this point

 

[Cobiemonster]

Brandon Pirri can't be stopped, he can only be contained

Two goals in 1:23 have tied this baby up!

 

[Cobiemonster]

Tricky Nicky gives the Panthers the lead late in the second! Now this is what you're supposed to do! 3-2 Cats after two periods

 

[Cobiemonster]

Possible trade candidate Torrey Mitchell ties it at 3 for the Sabres

 

[Cobiemonster]

Scottie Upshall scores to give the Panthers a 4-3 lead!

 

[Cobiemonster]

Panthers get a huge 5-3 win!

Now if the Coyotes can not give up goals against Boston, that would be nice(1-0 Bruins in the 1st)

 

[Cobiemonster]

Arizona is no help tonight

 

[puckhead]

Weise to Malhotra!


go Canucks go.... oh wait.

 

[Cobiemonster]

So this is kinda sorta must win for the Flyers or else we won't be seeing the colors Orange and Black in them playoffs

 

[Cobiemonster]

This is crazy
