The Flyers welcomed the Buffalo Sabres to the Wachovia center tonight. Marty Biron got the start in goal and performed well saving 27 of the 29 shots he faced. Meanwhile, Jeff Carter and Scott Hartnell each scored 2 goals to lead the Flyers to victory. Early in the first period Maxim Afinogenov scored for a 1-0 Buffalo lead. Late in the period Hartnell scored his first to knot it up at 1. Just seconds into the 3rd period Carter scored his first for a 2-1 lead. A few minutes later Mike Richards scored off the power play for a 3-1 lead. A couple minutes later Carter scored his second for a 4-1 lead. Late in the period Hartnell scored his second to effectively put it away with the score 5-1. Finally with just under 2 minutes to play Jochen Hecht scored for the Sabres to cut the final score to 5-2. So the Orange and Black improve to 36-19-10 overall for 82 points and still 4th in the Eastern conference.

Its good to see that the Flyers arent making this playoff race as exciting as last year, and I hope they don't lose to the Penguins in teh Eastern Conference finals.

yeah that actually might not be possible as the Pens are in danger of not even making the playoffs
