#6 New York Rangers (24-19-7, 55 pts) at #9 Philadelphia Flyers (24-21-3, 51 pts)
Wachovia Center - 7:00 PM ET - Philadelphia, PA
TV: CSN Philly HD, MSG HD, Yahoo! Online
Radio: 610 WIP
This is the open game thread.
Get New York reaction at Blueshirt Banter
Most people around here probably have the idea in their heads that the New York Rangers suck. They haven't really been much of a threat over the last few seasons, they've had a ridiculous amount of roster turnover in that time, everybody knows they can't score and their success teeters on the health of Marian Gaborik's groin.
Don't tell the Rangers that, though.
Henrik Lundqvist is up to his usual ass-kicking, but instead of getting no support from his offense like normal, the Rangers have put 14 pucks in the opposing net in their last two games, an 8-2 rout of the Lightning on Monday and a 6-2 blitzing of Montreal on Saturday. And just as you're thinking "oh, it's probably just one line or two, no worries", stop that thought. Gaborik has in fact been on fire, with seven points in those two games, but against the Lightning 16 different players picked up points.
Who knows how long this scoring spell will last for the Rangers, but tonight the Flyers will have to deal with it. Hopefully, Jeff Carter and the boys can keep up their own high-scoring ways. Remember, our boys did post six on the Rangers at home way back in 2009.
Claude Giroux will stay at center again tonight, and the lines will be the same as we saw against Columbus on Tuesday. Donald Brashear is out of the Rangers lineup, so maybe he and Riley Cote can drop them in the press box or something.
Tonight's game has some pretty high stakes, as well. Some are calling it a must-win, and while we've denounced the use of that oft-used phrased, it's clear that it's an important game. The Rangers sit in sixth place while the Flyers sit in ninth, but with games in hand over New York, the Flyers can give themselves an edge with a victory here tonight. With a Florida win tonight over the Islanders as well as a Flyer win, of course, we'll be right back in the playoff picture.
Both teams are playing the best hockey of their seasons, and with the stakes high, tonight's game could be a doozy. Besides, it's Rangers versus Flyers. Avery sucks.
After the jump, line combinations, questions to answer, starting goaltenders, and our in-game discussion.
Flyers Line Combinations
Hartnell - Carter - Briere
Gagne - Richards - Powe
JVR - Giroux - Asham
Carcillo - Betts - Laperriere
Carle - Pronger
Coburn - Timonen
Tollefsen - Bartulis
Rangers Line Combinations
Prospal - Dubinsky - Gaborik
Drury - Christensen - Callahan
Higgins - Anisimov - Lisin
Avery - Boyle - Voros
Staal - Rozsival
Del Zotto - Girardi
Redden - Gilroy
Starting Goaltenders
Questions To Answer
- Blair Betts, in his last game against his old team, the Rangers, jumped out and scored in the first minute. Does Betts have another solid game against his former team tonight?
- Can the Flyers jump out to a critical early lead yet again?
- Does the Flyers defense look over-matched against the suddenly potent Ranger offense?
- How long does it take Sean Avery to do something dumb?
- Ray Emery has slowly made progress in his last two games. Does that continue tonight?
Tonight's game is on CSN Philly locally, MSG in the New York metro, and streaming on Yahoo! everywhere else in the States. Listen at 610 WIP and, as always, join us here for the conversation. LET'S GO FLYERS!

I hate the Rangers so much. But we have a weird relationship. I forget about them whenever we’re not playing them, but as soon as game day comes and the game is about to start, I HATE them. Like, a lot.

Yeah, very good point.
I’m still debating Luongo/Lundqvist. I didn’t know he was so young until you took King Henrik over Captain Canuck. I have yet to decide.

Lundqvist in my opinion.
Age is the big factor as their numbers are fairly similar. And he’s won a gold medal.
Yeah, it basically comes down to age, cap hit (Henrik is $1.5 mil more) and contract length (Luongo signed through ‘22, Lundqvist through ’14). I can’t decide. Thankfully, I don’t have to. It’s like choosing between Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley – for me at least

You guys hear about how Lappy’s teeth were stolen?
Broad Street Hockey - SB Nation's Philadelphia Flyers Blog. Makin' it look mean since 1967.
Seems seven of his teeth that form two bridges were stolen en route to Philadelphia.
"They must have thought they had gold in them," Laperriere said at the morning skate, as the Flyers prepare for Thursday night’s game against the Rangers.
"I’m so angry. The box came and it was empty. When you’re 20 years old and you lose some teeth, it’s OK, now you look like a hockey player. But when you are 36, it’s not so cool.
"Who’s going to wear them? They’re not going to fit anyone except me."

was there any doubt in his mind what would happen when he repeatedly hits Carcillo in the face and drops his gloves?
Gaborik was pinning Carcillo against the boards and then he dropped the gloves. It’s not the refs fault that one of the Rangers star player thought that it was a good idea to get tough with the Flyers tough guy.

I think I hate the Penguins at least twice as much as I would if they had even average announcers. I’m forced to watch a lot of non-Flyer feeds… amazing how much the quality varies.

You beat me to the explanation of the rest of the flag. I’m slightly embarrassed about how much I know about Montreal….
But a lot of the reason it’s so different is that it diverged so long ago. French in France has evolved a lot since 1642 when Montreal was founded, but since Quebec wasn’t under French rule anymore, they evolved in a not-necessarily parallel way.

Gaborik dropped his gloves pretty early. I think Carbomb’s are still on. If that is the case then Gaborik should get the same suspension that Carcillo did earlier for his fight with Bradley.
Should if true, but there’s no way in hell he would. No visual, no reputation, and it was against Carcillo.

I just saw the Carcillo-Gaborik fight on YouTube with the MSG announcers. Wow. It’s like they saw something totally different.
It’s a wonder Ranger fans were so upset about that fight at Bluestreet Banter, they had those guys making it sound like Carcillo was evil incarnate.
Fire Andy Reid - From horrible clock management to wasted timeouts to using the pass to set up the pass, he is one of the worst gameday coaches in the league.
yup thats exactly what i heard and i didn’t understand it after gaborik pushed carbomb first. throughout the game they kept saying how danny was so wrong for going after their star player, and this continued into the post game.
Wow, you were right. Those announcers make it sound like Carbomb sucker punched Gaborik Bertuzzi style. I guess they missed the part where Gabby dropped his gloves FIRST! Unbelievable!

This makes me appreciate it more that our announcers tell it to us straight most of the time here in Philly…. If our guys do something stupid, we usually admit it. They had their blinders on up in NY though, wow.

they twisted carcillos words to say that he was licking his chops to get at gaborik. amazing what they can do. tortarella then gets into an argument with a reporter….

Coatesy just scored the fights as 2-0-2.
I don’t disagree. Carcillo beat Gaborik, Hartnell beat Avery, Avery and Carcillo drew, and Voros and Asham drew.
