SILVER LININGS. That is what you look for when you are a
struggling hockey team looking to turn your season around. With Thursday
night’s 4-1 victory over their division rival, the New Jersey Devils, the
Philadelphia Flyers put forth the kind of effort Craig Berube hopes to see out
his team every game.
The Flyers
were able to enter the locker room after the first period with a 2-0 lead, and
never looked back. Philadelphia was able to double the amount of shots put up
by the Devils in all 3 periods, which is an area the Flyers have struggled in
all season long. When you put up a lot of shots, it increases the chances of
you scoring goals (crazy, I know). Although the Devils were able to cut the
lead in half in the 2nd period, the Orange & Black responded in
the 3rd with two more goals (yes, in know one was an empty net goal
but it still counts).
The
Philadelphia Flyers played on one their best games, if not the best, of the
season last night against the New Jersey Devils. They are going to need to put
forth that kind of effort every game from this point on if they want a chance
to even be in the playoff discussion towards the end of the season. The Flyers
look to build off their win when they go up against the struggling Carolina
Hurricanes Saturday afternoon.
