FLYERS NEWS

Capitals 5 Flyers 3
It Was Over When....
The 3rd period began. Through the first two periods the Flyers and the Capitals were neck and neck with each other scoring 3 goals each. In the 3rd period however, it was all Capitals, as they scored 2 goals and did not allow the Flyers to answer.
The Game Puck Goes To....
Capitals' wunderkind, Alexander Ovechkin with a goal and 2 assists.
The Stat Of The Game is....
o, as in o minutes played on the ice by Flyers superstar Peter Forsberg, the 2nd game in a row he has missed. The Flyers played pretty well tonight, but alas, the Flyers without Forsberg are like the Sixers without Iverson, thus they did not have the firepower to stick with the Capitals in the 3rd period.
The Bottom Line Is....
The Flyers just can't win without Peter Forsberg in the lineup. They are now 0-7 without him andh have now lost 3 straight overall. Translation, until Forsberg comes back the Flyers are going to keep playing well, but fall short as they did tonight.
