2009-2010 Flyers Schedule

July 16, 2009

I have posted the 2009-2010 Flyers schedule and it can be found here.

The season starts 9 days earlier then last season because of the Olympic break in February. This also compresses the schedule some. In March the Flyers play 16 games from March 2 until March 28 with no 2 concurrent days off until March 29.

Not a big fan of the NHL stopping for several weeks for the Olympics, or the Olympics specifically themselves. Just hope no Flyers get injured playing in the Olympics like Gagne did 4 years ago.

Enough Reserves. Mount Up.

July 16, 2009

Last year Paul Holmgren collected what I referred to, when the Nazi's weren't listening in on my conversations, as "an army of defenseman" during the Flyers off-season. He was bringing in supposedly puck moving defensemen almost every other day: 6/6: Flyers trade Ryan Potulny for Danny Syvert 6/20: Flyers draft Swiss born D-man Luca Sbisa with 19th overall pick, and others... 6/20: Flyers acquire Steve Emminger and 3rd Round pick for a 1st Round pick 6/24: Flyers trade Triston Grant and 7th round pick in 2009 for Janne Niskala, who later becomes a 6th Round Pick in 2009
