Game Two: Double Whammy Down 2-0, Another Defenseman

With the Flyers already down their best defenseman in Kimmo Timonen, they got what they could ill afford early on; an injury to another defenseman. Braydon Coburn, Timonen's defensive partner, went down early in the period when he was hit in the face with a puck that deflected off the stick of Evgeni Malkin. Then the Flyers went on to lose the game, albeit in a better effort than their game 1 performance.

They're not toast yet, but they're close. If they can't get better shots on, and break out better, it will be really difficult for them to make a comeback.

With everything the Flyers are dealing with regarding injuries this team just keeps coming out and fighting until the end. They played much better in the 2nd game considering it came down to the 3rd period being 2-2 and then the turnover came along. This was basically a 3-2 hockey game at the end. I hate counting open net goals. I am confident the city of brotherly love will get behind this team at home and show these guys just how much we love them. Nothing like having the extra players from your hometown fans!
