Gameday: Minnesota Wild at Philadelphia Flyers, 9/29/2009

Since no one else put it out here, I guess I will. According to Russo:

Quote :: Appears as if the lines tonight will be:

Brunette-Koivu-Havlat
Nolan-Bouchard-Sykora
Miettinen-Sheppard-Clutterbuck
Scott-Belanger-Brodziak

Schultz-Johnsson
Zanon-Burns
Hnidy-Zidlicky

Scratches: Sifers, Smith

Obviously, subject to change

even tho Bruno is on the top line i would like to see something like this to test out the waters

Benny Koivu Havlat

Sykora (Shepp/butch) (shepp/butch) with this also try something like nolan shepp sykora if butch is too much of a chicken steamer

to at least test the waters and see how shepp and benny do with some talent.

Where is BP? And why are we playing Scott on 4th line then?

He's hurt. I don't think it's anything serious, but they are holding him out.

Pouliot was expected to miss a little over a week, it's not quite been that long yet.

Oh, yes. I recall he was on the longest injury list in Wild's history. Shocked

Sheppard looks AWESOME tonight. Forechecking like no other, but damnit. Flyers just scored.

2-0.

Team looks good or lost on a shift-by-shift basis. They need a preseason restart.

Just as I compliment Shep, he makes a TERRIBLE turnover backing up into the Wild zone near the end of the 1st period.

Minnesota being outshot 11-6, but most of it's shots have been on the PP. Best thing I can say in the first period is that the PP looks pretty good. Always taking shots and has good puck possession. Questionable players playing on the PP though. Schultz at the point? No Sykora that I've noticed yet.

Was about to point out the same, but they corrected themselves before I posted..

i dont mind bouchard at center that much. he can stick handle into the zone at least and make a decent first pass

the goons are pissed at clutterbuck

Butch still stopping and curling towards the boards when entering the zone with space and speed... facepalm
