PrintPittsburgh Penguins at Philadelphia Flyers, Feb 18, 2012 1:00 PM EST
Pittsburgh Penguins (32-20-5, 69 pts) at Philadelphia Flyers (32-18-7, 71 pts)
1 p.m. today at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia
Catch the action on CSN, ROOT Sports, NHL Network and 94WIP
[Game Preview] - [Pittsburgh Perspective]
Today's goaltenders: Marc-Andre Fleury vs. Ilya Bryzgalov.
James van Riemsdyk, Jaromir Jagr and Danny Briere will all play today. Tom Sestito is injured, Zac Rinaldo is still suspende. Lots of changes.
Questions to Answer
- It's one thing to score seven goals against the Sabres. But is the offense there today against the Pens?
- Can the Flyers stop Evgeni Malkin?
- Speaking of, Orange Jesus is just two points behind Malkin for the points lead. How's that race look at the end of the day?
- How does Nick Grossman look?
- What about JvR... and Briere... and Jagr?
- Over/under on stupid Crosby sucks chants set at 5. So, over or under?
Go Flyers.

Under, one big one in the beginning, and rando small ones about throughout.
I’m pumped for this game, psyched to see everyone back, and Grossman added in. Wasn’t sure if they’d scratch Gus or MAB, but maybe the 2 will perhaps split some time to see how the pairs line up with Grossman in now.
Anyway…LET’S GO FLYERS!!!!
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP CLAP CLAP!

STUCK AT WORK AGAIN!!!!
1) Grossman is the second coming of Bundy, and negates Malkin entirely.
2) Giroux gets one assist on the day, but his linemates each score a goal (again).
3) See #1 above. Otherwise, one or two gaffes, but we gloss over them as ‘new-team-nervousness’.
4) JVR and Briere don’t dress. Jagr does, but plays minimal minutes just to get the Pens annoyed.
5) Duh. Over.

4) Wait. JvR and Danny B are totally playing today.

Gus
Being in DC I haven’t gotten a chance to watch a lot of games the last two weeks, but I wanted to ask what people thought about the decision to drop Gus and keep MAB following the Grossman acquisition.
MAB has been up longer.

MAB is better.
Good move.

I think MAB has been making good strides. Still making the occasional boneheaded rookie mistake, but I watched him a lot last game and he made some good solid decisions, body position and skating out of pressure to make a good pass. I’m hopeful he’s going to be a solid 6/7.

Check out the story from Puck Daddy on the right, where he talks with Medvedev about the KHL. The video in the article is infuriating. That Vityaz team shouldn’t even be allowed to play. It’s disgusting….
I'm kind of a dick.
When i saw you mention this I thought they had just posted an old video of some of their highlights. But its another one. A new one. A guy skating away only to be hooked back then pounded as he turtled. Was that Nikolai Zherdev coming to the rescue?. A new low. The club is an embarrasment to the sport. And that Mirasty is something else entirely.

LET'S GO FLYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looking forward to the game but a little concerned. I may be incorrect but I believe the Flyers record before the carnival is bad. I don’t know the actual stats but it just seems as they lose before carnival.

He’s not as ‘fancypants’ as Briere, that’s for damn sure. But he ain’t exactly Simmonds or Hartnell either. There’s no real ‘toughness’ on that line. Read’s no pushover, but he’s not intimidating anyone either – nor can he park in the crease and hang out waiting for Jagr to fend off two defenders before passing to Briere hiding behind the net.

It worries me, the Flyers and head injuries, though. The organization doesn’t have the best history there and bringing guys back too early, whatever the reason, is dangerous.
No one but the team and players know that for sure. JvR has been skating for a while now, and I don’t think there was ever a reason given for Danny being out. Some one said he may have taken an elbow or a big hit.
