The Flyers look to be turning the corner again at just the right time. They defeated the New York Islanders 4-1, mostly thanks to a tremendous effort by Martin Biron. Biron, who made 32 saves and gave up the lone goal late in the third period, has owned the Islanders this season, going 6-0 against them. He has a chance to earn another win against the Islanders when the teams play again next week.
