Tonight's goaltenders:
Michael Leighton in goal for the Flyers. It's his first start of the season.
After the jump, lineups, questions to answer and our in-game discussion.
Flyers Projected Lineup
Nodl - Richards - Giroux
Hartnell - Briere - Leino
JvR - Carter - Zherdev
Carcillo - Betts - Powe
Meszaros - Carle
Coburn - Timonen
Bartulis - O'Donnell
Scratches: Sergei Bobrovsky, Jody Shelley, Erik Gustafsson
Kings Projected Lineup
Sturm - Kopitar - Brown
Smyth - Stoll - Williams
Clifford - Handzus - Simmonds
Richardson - Lewis - Westgarth
Johnson - Doughty
Scuderi - Greene
Martinez - Drewiske
Questions to Answer
- Michael Leighton's first game since... you know. What's the deal?
- Kimmo Timonen is playing, but you know he's not 100 percent. Does he show his injury?
- Both teams were completely obliterated in their last games. Extra jump off the start?
- Defensively, the Flyers have been terrible across the board in the last two. Any improvement in that department?

Good idea to start Leights?
I think so just for the wake up call. I imagine the players would really focus with Leighton making his first start. Even if he doesn’t play well the rest of the team should show a better effort.
Good call. They have been playing some uninspired hockey of late. Hope Leights has a decent outing. I would hate to clean up the mess around here with all the bashing and poo flying into the fan.

Thanks. I’m in my hotel in Pittsburgh (arrived today for the Winter Classic). Hope I can watch the game on one of these streams. The hotel told me that streaming video may result in excessive bandwidth usage, in which case they’ll cut off my access if they feel I’m slowing down the network for others. Considering I’m in the hotel that all the NHL reps and media are in, I imagine the network is already getting a good workout.

I’ve heard it said that the Kings are Flyers West. I guess with Hextall and Stevens, they def. have some Flyers personnel around.

Woohoo go flyers (trying my best to forget about the last two games). Maybe the mid-season Leighton effect will be the same as last season and we will go on another hot streak.
What has been up with G lately? Have other teams started defending him better or does he have the flu? Also, Leino… where you at? You haven’t been too busy effortlessly controlling the puck in the offensive zone lately. Step up, please.

I wish they’d do a Stanley Cup Final 24/7 no matter who the teams ended up being or even a 24/7 of a full season of a couple of teams. Don’t even care what teams. 24/7 has just been that damned good.

Yeah, it just seems like there’s such a lack of personality in the NHL, and this is showcasing the players as people, which is refreshing. It’s damn fun to watch, and I’m dying to see something like this with the Flyers.

The difference was that Lou wanted him to be claimed for cap relief. I’m kinda surprised no one took him.
In other news, the Predators GM deserves a hand for snakeing Svatos away from the Blues.
Mourning Gagne forever.
No, that was frankly classless by Poile. I know he’s very limited with financial and other resources in Nashville and is absolutely trying to do the best he can in that kind of position and you’re supposed to take full advantage of every rule as GM, but that’s how you get a lot of other organizations really mad at you and as a GM that’s how you lose goodwill with your peers.

From a pure hockey perspective sure, but Svatos and his family decided on St. Louis and other organizations won’t forget about it if/when Poile is doing trade negotiations. It also sets a rather nasty precedent for other European players wanting to come back to the NHL mid-season.

by Ben Feldman on Dec 30, 2010 10:16 PM EST up reply actions
Even so, this seems a little heartless. St. Louis and Svatos signed a deal. Poile could have approached Svatos to make a deal then. But instead he took advantage of a rule and left the dealmakers unhappy.

Of course.
I’m not sure that the Preds will be able to sign him, in any case. They have lots of young D in the minors and juniors, etc.

Weber’s a pretty great D though. I hope that if they can’t sign him they send him to Philly like they do all their other defensemen. Even if we can’t sign him, err, it would be nice to know that Nashville are still helping us out.
On a somewhat related note to the Svatos discussion, if Foppa wanted to play with the Flyers after the deadline would he have to go through waivers?

Just to clarify, I propose getting Gags back somehow and signing Foppa so that we can recreate that wonderful chemistry and end up with:
Nodl-Richards-Giroux
Hartnell-Briere-Leino
JVR-Carter-Zherdev
Gagne-Forsberg-Powe
I think that 4th line could provide some solid energy shifts, match up against other team’s top lines and possibly provide the odd timely goal.

But remembering you only have to pay Foppa on a day-by-day basis and he’d take a big discount to come back to the NHL; remove Mesz, Shelley, Walker and Carcillo (keeping Betts as the healthy scratch, as good as he is, he isn’t Peter Forsberg) and you’ve got the money

You know that crew that kept saying in the offseason about what Leighton could turn into when he’s had a full offseason and with Jeff Reese? Yeah I was hoping they might have been a little bit right.
