Flyers Lose Couturier To Injury, Get Demolished By Bruins 6-0

Via Buzz On Broad  |  December 17, 2011
Embarrasing. This one should be interesting for HBO 24/7. The Flyers came into this game without Giroux or Pronger playing very well as of late. Today, we saw a team that looked lost and played with no sense of urgency. Bryzgalov was pulled after letting up some soft goals, so let the controversy discussions continue. The Flyers also lost another player to injury - Sean Couterier...

The pressure is off Chris Pronger. The pressure from the Flyers, that is. By announcing that the defenseman won't be back this season or playoffs, Pronger now has months to recover from post-concussion syndrome without pangs of returning because there are no expectations.
