FLYERS NEWS

Senators 6 Flyers 3
It Was Over When....
Senator's star winger Daniel Alfredsson stepped on the ice. Alfredsson has struggled for most of this season, but today he looked like his oldself again scoring two goals and an assist including the go ahead tally with about 8:00 minutes to play in the 3rd period
The Game Puck Goes To....
Who else, Daniel Alfredsson with 2 goals and an assist. Danny Heatley also chipped in with 2 assists so we'll give one to him too.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
0, as in 0 goals scored by the Flyers in the 3rd period to 3 for the Senators. After battling to a
3-3 tie through 2 periods the Flyers succumbed to the constant pressure applied by the Senators, allowing 3 late goals in the 3rd period while failing to score any of their own.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, it seems that even struggling teams like the Senators ,who had lost 6 of their last 8, can beat the Flyers these days who have now extended their franchise record losing streak to 9 games. Incredibly the Flyers also set a new record for futility at home with this their 6th consecutive loss at the Wachovia center, in fact their 3 wins at home this season, are the fewest of any NHL team at their home arena. I'd love to say something good about the Flyers now, but I just can't, sorry guys, happy holidays anyway though.
