Flyers Playoff Coverage

Another day, another batch of Flyers related goodness.

One of my favorite hockey blogs (I don't read many), is On the Forecheck and much to my dismay, he predicts the Caps to win the first round.

It also sounds like defenseman Darien Hatcher will definitely not return to play in game one but is expected to be in the lineup for game two. Probably not a bade idea. The whole idea is to come out of Washington with a split and as much as I would like the Flyers to set the tone defensively in game one, I would be ok with a stronger presence in game two. The Flyers are able to beat the Capitals any given night, just as much as the Caps can beat the Flyers any night. Of course, either team is capable of coming to Philly with a 2-0 lead as well.
