Leave the Flyers’ Goaltending Alone
That’s right, I said it. I’m sick and tired of hearing “Ya know, the Flyers aren’t going anywhere because they don’t have the goaltending.” Another favorite of mine is that an unproven rookie goalie can’t take a team through the playoffs.

Look at the New Boys
Monday Morning MidfielderRussell Schilt It’s good to be back after a nice international break. It was business as usual for the majority of the European big boys, and it looks like no real surprises will come at the end of Euro Qualifying (and I don’t consider Norway a surprise).
