Laliberte called up to replace injured Briere

The Flyers have called up David Laliberte from Adirondack. He is available to play tomorrow afternoon against Carolina.

Laliberte is a 6-1 right wing that as of last week had been on the Phantoms top line. Paired with Pat Maroon and Jon Matsumoto, Laliberte has one goal to go with five helpers. This line had seemed to be clicking as of late, with a solid forecheck leading to many opportunities. Laliberte plays both ends well, and is one of the guys the Phantoms were counting on for scoring. His five helpers make up for a lack of scoring as of late.

Briere, as discussed earlier, is out of the lineup tomorrow after leaving Friday's practice with one of those pesky "lower body injuries."

He will not play tonight

Does this mean Richards didn’t invite him to meet the boys at Plough and the Stars at 10pm?

That seems to be the Flyers’ traditional hangout, does it not? Lindros used to be there all of the time, and a friend-of-a-friend got picked up by / went home with Peter Forsberg when she was hanging at the Plough.

Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?

There, and Irish Pub. But I guess that goes without saying.

Yeah

I’ve been to the Irish Pub maybe three times in my life, and one of those times (in 1998 or 1999) I saw Chris Therien and Ron Hextall there.
