Flyers Fall to Buffalo

Last night the Fly Guys lost 3-2 to the Sabres. For some reason I'm not all that upset with the loss. I feel it was more a combination of the Sabres playing really well, and not so much the Flyers playing poorly, although they didnt play great. Ryan Miller was a brick wall, and with Tim Thomas not being all that impressive so far in Boston, perhaps Miller is locking up his spot as Team USA's starting netminder in the Olympics.

To me, it seemed like Dan Carcillo was out there for a long time last night, but it turns out he only played 10:04. Im not on the "Carcillo sucks" bandwagon, but it just seems like he has a knack for not making plays and of course, taking the stupid penalty, which he did in the first couple minutes last night-which led to the first Buffalo goal. Just when I think he can play smart hockey, and provide this team with a Sean Avery type scoring threat/agitator, he plays a horrible game and changes my opinion.

As much as I HATE them, you've gotta give the Penguins credit, tying the game with 0.4 seconds to go last night, and then winning it in OT. The Flyers could learn a few things from them.
