Flyers Win Back to Back vs NJ


In the home at home between the Flyers and the Devils that took place on Thursday and ended yesterday at the Wells Fargo center, the Flyers were able to win both games behind goaltender Brian Boucher. Boucher got the start in both games, and the Flyers got scoring from guys like Hartnell, Briere and Van Riemsdyk. The Flyers put themselves in a 1-0 hole in the first game, but never let the Devils have the lead in the second. Peter Laviolette has his team playing at an extremely high level. He got his team to play hard and not look past a very poor Devils team. They did what they needed to do, took care of business, and got 4 points out of it. Looking ahead to this week, I expect Boucher to continue to get starts. He has won 9 of his last 11, and the Flyers have to go with the hot hand. This week the Flyers go on the Road and take on Buffalo, Boston and Atlanta.
