Questions to Answer
- The worst team in the NHL is the perfect medicine for a four-game slump, right?
- Carcillo and Shelley both in tonight. How’s that go?
- After a day off, do the Flyers look as tired as they have lately?
- How’s Jeff Carter look after recovering from the flu that really seemed to kick his ass?
Go Flyers.
