FLYERS NEWS

The Flyers traveled to New Jersey for a key matcup with Devils who currently sit a top the Atlantic division just ahead of the Flyers. Antero Niittymaki started the last game in goal so it figures that Marty Biron got the start tonight and he was solid saving 39 of the 42 shots he faced. Unfortunately his opponent future hall of famer Marty Brodeur was spectacular saving all 27 shots he faced for his 100th career shutout. Early in the first period Jamie Langenbrunner made it 1-0 Devils. Early in the 2nd period Brian Gionta made it 2-0 Devils. Annoyingly Early in the 3rd period Johnny Oduya scored for a 3-0 Devils lead which of course was the final score. So the Flyers drop to 33-18-10 overall but remain 4th in the Eastern conference.
