Pens and Flyers renew best rivalry in NHL
Via Sports Nut Hub

February 20, 2013
The Pens and Flyers square off once more tonight at Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh. For my money this is now the best rivalry in hockey. Much like the Avs and Red wings had years ago these teams have a genuine dislike for each other which brings out the best and worst in both teams. Last season the Flyers for the most part owned the Pens, especially in the playoff series which...

It is admittedly starting to get old, but it's really hard not to enjoy this one.

Not A Very Good Team In Philadelphai

from Sam Donnellon of the Philadelphia Daily News,
It would be one thing if the second-year players who showed promise in smaller roles last season were the cause of this. Then you could talk about experience and improvement. But with the exception of Sean Couturier, who turned 20 in December, they have handled the added pressure. Brayden Schenn has 14 points. Read, now sidelined...

Even before the opening faceoff of last night's game, the Philadelphia Flyers were in trouble. The match against the Florida Panthers was the epitome of a "trap" game. These are the sort of matches that may favor one side on paper -- superior talent, better record, season series advantage -- but which are actually ripe for the underdog team to win.
