FLYERS NEWS

The Flyers open an exciting new season of hockey tomorrow night. Their preseasom went much like their regular season, as they started at 3-0 and then lost 3 in a row to finish at 3-3 overall. new captain Mike Richards was the star with 5 goals in the 6 games while Simon Gagne, finally healthy it seems, and Joffrey Lupul each had 2. The goaltending of Marty Biron, Antero Niittymaki, and recent draft pick Jean Sebastian Aubin who pitched a shutout, was equally impressive. So it seems the Flyers are in good hands for the upcoming season and capable of another deep playoff run.
