All you need to know about this game is the Devils fired 43 shots at Bryzgalov while the Flyers directed only 22 at Brodeur.
We will probably see the best game of the Flyers on Tuesday night but the Devils have found a way to shut down the Flyers’ offensive firepower.
Watch the game winning goal from Dainius Zubrus.

Claude Giroux of the Philadelphia Flyers goes headhunting against the New Jersey Devils. Giroux was arguing about a call he did not get with the referees, he then took his frustrations out on Danius Zubrus’ head. The Devils ended up winning the game 4-2. Does the hit warrant a fine or even a suspension from NHL senior vice president for player safety Brendan Shanahan.

from Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer, In a twisted way, not having their superstar center - suspended by the NHL on Monday for a head hit on the Devils’ Dainius Zubrus on Sunday - may unify the Flyers and give them a rallying cry.
That’s their hope, anyway.
And, hey, if you’ve watched how the Devils have embarrassed the Flyers over the last three games, all with...

Here is the latest hit in the NHL that should receive some scrutiny - and the player in question deserves to miss a game or two because of a suspension - or at least receive a fine. That being said, I would be very surprised if there is a suspension because Claude Giroux is considered an up and coming star players and Brendan Shanahan and the Department of Player Safety doesn...

If the Philadelphia Flyers want to stave off elimination on Tuesday night, they'll have to do it without their top scorer in the playoffs.

Philadelphia Flyers star forward Claude Giroux has a hearing with the NHL’s Department of Player Safety this morning and I believe that Giroux deserves to have a one game ban for his head shot on Dainius Zubrus at the 19:56 mark of the second period in last night’s Eastern Conference Semifinal game against the New Jersey Devils. Zubrus was stunned by the...

Yes this one is going to hurt tomorrow but definitely a rallying point for the Flyers as Claude Giroux was suspended for one game (Zubrus hit and/or abuse of officials). The bottom line was that took away from what happened in the game as New Jersey rallied back from a 2-0 deficit to win 4-2 in a game that was an exact reversal from anything we expected in this...
