Found April 03, 2012 on HockeyBuzz: Yardbarker Blogger Network

Carter-stands-with-flyers
Danny Briere didn't have to meet with the media today to discuss his injury. Curiously, the Flyers allowed him to talk even though he is listed as out indefinitely. Every other player who was injured and out for more than day-to-day this season, has been off limits to the media. But Briere wanted to talk and asked GM Paul Holmgren if he could. He doesn't have any fault - nor should he -...

  “This is a much different building than the Igloo,” Hartnell said. “You were almost scared coming into the Igloo, people were right on you. And how dumpy the place was, it was tough. I think it’s good we have the confidence to play here. We know in our hearts and our heads we can beat these guys.” [ PHT ]   Hard for Pens fans to defend this statement...

Via Next Impulse Sports  |  April 02, 2012
If you missed the Flyers vs. Penguins game yesterday, then you missed quite possibly the best fight of the season…and it wasn’t between the players. I unfortunately was stuck in my vehicle for 5 hours and had to listen to it all unfold via the radio. Flyers head coach Peter Laviolette went ape $h!t and started screaming at the Penguins coaching staff, most specifically Dan Bylsma...

Flyers still ********, think Sid & Geno are dirty

We kind of thought that after Mike Milbury made best friends with the city of Philthadelphia that this whole Brawl at Consol thing would blow over at least until Saturday when the Penguins and Flyers get to go at it again. But then we remembered this is Philthy we’re talking about, of course they’re not done. Joe Viatle destroyed Danny Briere, Deryk Engelland owned Wayne...

Bill Meltzer: Meltzer's Musings: 8 reasons why the Rangers swept season series

Via HockeyBuzz  |  April 04, 2012
The reasons why the Flyers finished their season series against the Rangers with an 0-6-0 record are easy to find. It's the solutions that proved elusive. When you combine all of the following 8 factors, it's no wonder that Philly failed to secure a single point against the Blueshirts this season: 1) The Flyers did not score a single first period goal in any of the six...

Photo Courtesy of Bruce Bennett/Getty Images By Charlie O’Connor (@THG_Charlie) Play physical defense. Face top competition. And chip in with the occasional goal or assist. Those were the duties of Wayne Simmonds during his first three NHL seasons as a member of the Los Angeles Kings. The Philadelphia Flyers, on the other hand, see Simmonds as a far different player. In his first...

This is straight out of the rock em sock em hockey collection. In case you missed it, the playoffs are just around the corner and I think that a potential series between the Flyers and the Penguins could very exciting, but also very explosive and nasty playoff series. The two coaches were fined for the behavior during yesterday's game...

RECAP: The storm before the storm. PENS LOSE.

Via The Pensblog  |  April 02, 2012
      Hartnell is the perfect kind of villain.  He always has been.   In this one, the Pens jumped out to a 2-0 lead and then let the Flyers completely take the game over.  Kind of glad this happened, though.  Pens may have gotten a sense of entitlement when Crosby came back and haven't played the same kind of hockey they&...
