The Flyers finished a home and home with the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight back at the Wachovia center. This time Cujo got the night off and the Flyers put on an offensive display as Jeff Carter posted a hat trick. So good was the Flyers offense tonight, that Marty Biron couldn't even screw them up as he allowed 5 goals, many of them pretty weak. Early in the 1st period Randy Jones scored for a 1-0 lead. A few minutes later Claude Giroux scored for a 2-0 lead. A couple minutes later Simon Gagne scored for a 3-0 lead. Late in the period Scott Hartnell scored for a 4-0 lead. A few minutes later Carter scored his first for a 5-0 lead. Early in the 2nd period Carter scored his 2nd for a 6-0 lead. Late in the period Luke Schenn scored to cut it 6-1. A minute later Boyd Deveraux scored to cut it to 6-2. A couple minutes later Mikhail Grabovski scored to cut it to 6-3. Early in the 3rd period Carter scored his 2nd to push the lead back to 4 with the score 7-3. A few minutes later Nikolai Kulemin scored to cut it to 7-4. A few minutes later Danny Briere scored off a pretty pass from Giroux for an 8-4 lead. Finally a minute later Jamal Mayers scored to cut it to 8-5. From there Biron finally shut things down, and the Flyers hung on to win 8-5. So the Flyers improve to 42-25-10 overall for 94 points and still 4th in the Eastern conference.
