FLYERS NEWS

There is good news and there is bad news. First the good news. Tomorrow when the Flyers faceoff against the Rangers, they will once again have the services of Joffrey Lupul. Lupul has been on injured reserve since January 5 with a spinal contusion suffered in a big collision with teammate Derian Hatcher. It's not as if the Flyers potent offense has missed him lately, but he can only aid their cause. Now the bad news. In their last game, a tough loss to the Washington Capitals, Scottie Upshall went down with a sprained ankle. So while Lupul returns to the lineup, Upshall goes on injured reserve for apparently 7 to 10 days. Still the addition of lupul, if he really is healthly, should balance the loss of Upshall, so I think the Flyers will be just fine and continue to stay hot.

Well atleast we get a good player back and Upshall wont be out as long as Lupal so the Flyers should be able to do fine, and even better when they're full strenght
