Thursday Morning Fly By: Vora-cek yourself, Pittsburgh.

WHAT A GAME. Today's Morning Fly By is almost as satisfying as beating the Penguins on their own ice.

Justin K. Aller

Today's open discussion thread, complete with your daily dose of Philadelphia Flyers-related news and notes...

*WHAT A GAME!!! Hating the Pens is so much more fun when the Flyers pull out a win like that. Fantastic game. Relive the magic here at BSH and over at CSN Philly, Philly.com, & NHL.com.

*Jakub Voracek. Wayne Simmonds. INCREDIBLE.

*The Flyers come back home tonight to take on the Florida Panthers. We'll preview the game later this afternoon.

*Bad news amidst the craziness of last night's game: Matt Read left with an upper body injury. Hopefully nothing serious as Reader's been tremendous this season. (NHL.com)

*Lindy Ruff got canned yesterday. In other words, someone in the Sabres front office said, "Tell Lindy to f--k off." (BSH)

*SCOTT HARTNELL IS CLEARED TO PRACTICE HOORAY!!!!! (Flyers)

*ESPN thinks their hockey coverage is just fine. They are...not correct. (SB Nation)

*The Canucks' Jannik Hansen has been suspended for one game for his hit/elbow/whatever that was on Marian Hossa. (Nucks Misconduct)

*A guy that plays on a team with Evgeni Malkin calls Danny Briere one of the dirtiest players in the league. (BSH)

*The Mighty Ducks signed a goalie for two years after only nine games in the NHL. (Anaheim Calling)

*A kid in the QMJHL accidentally baseball-swings his stick and connects with an opposing player's face. Ouch. (Backhand Shelf)

*This Brad Richards bobblehead is probably having a better vacation than you. (Puck Daddy)
