-It didn't really set in that Mike Richards wasn't a Flyer until I actually watched him in another uniform play against Philly. I don't really understand why anyone would boo him since he did give a lot to this organization and it wasn't his call to leave town. I guess it's just the Philly way.
-Former Flyer Justin Williams had the bigger impact on the outcome, picking up two goals. Oh, and Simon Gagne also had an assist. And Terry Murray coached the Kings to victory. Flyers West indeed.
-It was nice to see Danny Briere pick up his first goal of the season. Of course, Jaromir Jagr really made the play with a beautiful pass but it was nice to see Briere get on the board. As for Jagr, he really looks like he turned back the clock about 10 years.
-While they lost, the Flyers did well to send the game into overtime and get a point. Through their first four games, the Flyers have picked up 7 of a possible 8 points, a solid feat considering the quality of opponents (Bruins, Canucks, Kings) they have played so far.
-Still too many penalties for the Flyers, though the Kings had even more. Perhaps I should stop blaming the Flyers and start looking at the officials, who have had a quick whistle so far this year.
-No goal by Claude Giroux tonight? Guess he will have to pick up two next time to stay on pace for 82.
