Questions to Answer
- Today is the first game where the Flyers know they’re without Chris Pronger for the rest of the year. It doesn’t seem like it’ll change their attitude towards the game, but something like that can be jarring. Is there any impact in the way the team plays?
- The Bruins are 18-0-0 when they score three goals, so the Flyers keep them to under three goals, right?
- Boston is a very good road team, while the Flyers have been just average at home on the season. These trends clearly mean nothing… don’t they?
- Don’t look now, but Matt Carle has points in four straight games. Five?
Go Flyers.
