Behind Enemy Lines: Winging It In Motown
- How will Ray Emery perform? He's facing off against another NHL team for the first time in two years. Does he look up to the challenge?
- As we mentioned earlier today, tonight is an important game for James van Riemsdyk. A solid performance could go a long way toward his chances of making the Flyers roster. He'll be on the Flyers top line with Claude Giroux and Danny Briere, going head-to-head with Detroit's top line of Johan Franzen, Pavel Datsyuk, and Tomas Holmstrom.
- Chris Pronger will suit up for the Flyers for the first time. He'll be paired with Matt Carle.
- An interesting bottom defensive pairing will see impressive youngsters Joonas Lehtivuori and Oskars Bartulis playing together. How do they handle the NHL pressure?
- Mark Bell and Blair Betts, both in camp on a professional try out basis, will state their cases in game action tonight.
Flyers lineup:
James van Riemsdyk - Claude Giroux - Danny Briere
Scott Hartnell - Jeff Carter - Mike Pyorala
Andreas Nodl - Jared Ross - Krys Kolanos
Ian Laperriere - Blair Betts - Mark Bell
Matt Carle - Chris Pronger
Randy Jones - Ryan Parent

There’s a picture on the wall at the Skate Zone in Atlantic City where Beezer and the team are celebrating a win. Everybody else is about a foot taller than him at least. Hilarious.

Word of advice people. To make pre-season on the radio more interesting, you’d better be drinking like it’s the playoffs.

Chris Therien is crushing former teammate Andy Delmore. Wonder what their beef was.

JVR scored, Emery is letting up rebounds, Betts sounds impressive, lots of penalties from the Flyers, Therien doesn’t like Andy Delmore

He’s getting a lot of ice time but they haven’t really talked about how he looks.

A nobody scores for the Wings, 2-1

The Jamie Tardif goal puts the Flyers in a 2-1 hole they’ll never dig out of.
Here’s hoping we can at least get a good lottery pick in the 2010 draft…

You wanna score on us, Tardiff? Laperriere’s gonna have something to say about that.
