Thats how you do it!!

For just about the entire John Stevens' era, my biggest complaint was the lack of a complete 60 minute effort, and that lack of effort has cost them countless games over the last couple seasons. Well so far in the 09/10 season, that hasn't been a problem. 2 games, 2 complete 60 minute efforts, 2 impressive wins. Now I think its been more a reflection of personnel changes than it is coaching, but regardless, the Flyers have looked incredible in the early season. Carter & Richards have picked up where they left off, JVR looks like he belongs, Pronger is, well, Pronger, the defense isnt giving up 35-40 shots a game as they have the last couple years, and most importantly, the shots that are taken, Emery has taken care of. Now I realize that its just about impossible to look as good all season as they have the first 2 games, but if they can look this good more often than not, this will be an exciting, dangerous team to play against.

Up this week; a very important couple of games to determine how serious a contender this team can be; 2 home games against the 2 best teams in the East, Washington & Pittsburgh. Mr. Pronger, you were brought here for one reason and one reason alone, we have no doubts that you'll handle your business

How about D-Powe scoring last night?! Is it too soon to think about the Hart Trophy?

LETS GO FLYERS!!!!!!
