Rangers vs. FlyersWest Discussion Thread

Why? Because this game will feature former Flyers first round draft pick Jeff Woywitka in his first game w/ his new team. Oh, and some other guy we kinda like. But mostly because M needs something to do today. Game is on Versus and starts at 1:00 PM EDT, playing at the Ericsson Globe Arena - Stockholm, Sweden.

I can’t believe I spaced and didn’t realize that this game was on at 1, even though we talked about it in the FlyBy. I was just researching for my documentary and could have watched the beginning… well I’m here now!

Yeah, he requested to be traded to an East Coast team. Apparently Clarke offered Langkow and Andy Delmore; but he ended up going to the Avs.
