Questions to Answer

  1. What’s Mike Richards do tonight? And Gagne?
  2. The Kings are on the final game of a really, really long road trip that went to Europe and back. They’re flying to Los Angeles after the game tonight. Can the Flyers catch them looking forward to the flight a bit?
  3. Danny Briere is the one potent offensive player that really has yet to make an impact for the Flyers. Can he break out of that a bit tonight?
  4. The Flyers power play really got going the other night, but the penalty kill left a bit to be desired. How do the special teams look this evening?
  5. Jagr needs a goal. I’m calling it tonight. This isn’t a question as much as an opportunity to call me an idiot come 9:45 tonight.

Go Flyers. The ones that play home games in Philadelphia.
