Questions to Answer

1. Can the team avoid the same slow start that plagued them on Thursday night in Boston?
2. Sean Couturier played some really tough defensive minutes in Game 1. Does that continue?
3. So like, how do the Devils look after being shitty last year and stuff?
4. I'd say that, even despite the goal from Voracek, the second line was the quietest of the bunch on Thursday. How's that go tonight?

Go Flyers.
