Pittsburgh Penguins at Philadelphia Flyers, Oct 8, 2009 7:00 PM EDT
Pittsburgh Penguins (2-1-0, 4 pts) at Philadelphia Flyers (3-0-0, 6 pts)
Wachovia Center - 7:00 PM ET - Philadelphia, PA
TV: CSN Philly HD, FSN Pittsburgh HD
Radio: 610 WIP (internet stream), XM 207, Sirius 217
This is the open game thread.
Behind Enemy Lines: Pensburgh
Chris Pronger was brought to Philadelphia for several reasons, but one of them is quite clear: to shut down the Pittsburgh Penguins. He'll get his first opportunity tonight when the Flyers' cross-state rivals visit the Wachovia Center.
Pittsburgh is coming off an ugly 3-0 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes, and there's no doubt that they're going to want to turn around a flat, lifeless performance. The fact that they're coming into South Philly tonight is just extra reason to get pumped up -- not that either team is going to need it.
The Flyers have Riley Cote, Arron Asham, and Ole-Kristian Tollefsen all in the lineup tonight, partly due to injury, partly for toughness. Ian Laperriere, Dan Carcillo, and Pronger are still there too, of course. Eric Godard and Mike Rupp define the toughness in Pittsburgh, but let's be real here.. that word really isn't in their dictionary.
The orange and black proved on Tuesday night that they can hang with the best of the best on the offensive end, but they're going to need a better defensive effort if they expect to beat Pittsburgh tonight. Against Washington, the defense looked out of sync and just straight up sloppy with the puck. It barely allowed the Flyers to squeak out a win against the Caps and it's not going to work against the Penguins, who have better goaltending and a better defense.
It'll be interesting to see which defense pairing goes against Sidney Crosby tonight. Pronger and Matt Carle saw the most action against Alex Ovechkin the other night, but Kimmo Timonen and Braydon Coburn have had success against Crosby in the past. Either way, Crosby and Evgeni Malkin will both have their hands full with the Flyers defense tonight.
After the jump, expected lines for both teams and questions to answer...
Pittsburgh Penguins
Pascal Dupuis - Evgeni Malkin - Ruslan Fedotenko
Matt Cooke - Jordan Staal - Tyler Kennedy
Mike Rupp - Craig Adams - Eric Godard
Brooks Orpik - Sergei Gonchar
Mark Eaton - Kris Letang
Jay McKee - Alex Goligoski
Marc-Andre Fleury
Simon Gagne - Mike Richards - Mika Pyorala
Scott Hartnell - Jeff Carter - Danny Briere
Aaron Asham - Claude Giroux - Darroll Powe
Riley Cote - Ian Laperriere - Dan Carcillo
Defense
Chris Pronger - Matt Carle
Kimmo Timonen - Braydon Coburn
Ryan Parent - Ole-Kristian Tollefsen
Scratches
Forwards - James van Riemsdyk, Blair Betts
Defense - Danny Syvret
Goalies
Ray Emery
Brian Boucher
Questions To Answer
- Which defense pairing sees time against the Crosby line? Effective? Repeat question replacing Crosby with Malkin.
- How does Ole-Kristian Tollefsen look in his Flyer debut?
- Does Aaron Asham send a message to John Stevens and earn his job back on a regular basis? Same goes for Riley Cote.
- Offensive dynamo Matt Carle leads the Flyers with six points. An encore, perhaps?
- Can Ray Emery outplay Marc-Andre Fleury?

I’d like to see Timonen/Coburn v. Crosby and Pronger/Carle v. Malkin. Also, hopefully match Richie’s line against Malkin, Carter against Crosby.
I know the forward matchups might be unpopular, but I like keeping Briere away from the most explosive player. I think Briere can catch up with either Kunitz or Guerin, whether he is aggressively backchecking or not.

Pick us up, Flyers!
It’s bad enough that the Phils lost today. Let’s not lose to the Penguins. If we do, at least let it be in the shootout because that’s a stupid way to win or lose a game anyway.

I had to listen to the Pens announcers and apparently the Pens are just the better team since they hung 5 points on us and all.
Even though we kind of killed ourselves in this game and if we play just a little better with the shift change and not scoring on ourselves, we’re in this game if not winning it.

They also said that since we can’t play as well as the Pens we have to come up with all of the fighting and running into the goalie, and other shenanigans…and the Pens just have to deal with it, because they would NEVER run blades first into a goalie when trying to score.

I don’t think Coatesy draws the line; he’s a serious homer. Everything is positive towards the Flyers with him. He even uses “we” sometimes. Don’t get me wrong; I think Coatesy’s awesome and I’m not complaining (because there are sure as hell enough anti-Philly people on TV to warrant a homer here and there), but I wouldn’t say he’s anywhere near objective.

what was letang’s problem? broke a nail…
richards made a play on the puck and his momentum carried him into the crease. wasnt dirty, but deserves attention. somehow they were more concerned La La’s pinkie
it was quite humorous – the pens announcer – that dude bob erray (what ever his name is…) has such issues with the flyers because he admitted always losing in philly. his deep hatred and scorn for the flyers speaks volumes of how much of a bias unprofessional pinhead he sounds on the air…

Supposedly, Hartnell bit him? That’s what the Pens announcers said, although how they knew that until after the game, I have no idea. Whatever, you shove your hands in someone’s face, things happen. Not that I condone it, mind you, but in the heat of the moment, I can sort of understand. These two teams really hate each other.
