Flyers can't buy a goal, the curse of the starter, and Gator returns

Well okay, technically, they bought 2 goals, but man, getting anything past Elliott was a challenge. Looks like maybe that Sens coaching change might work out okay for them. Might have to pick up Elliott for my fantasy team.

Flyers did not look bad. However, watching the Habs may have skewed my view of what a good game looks like. Really though, they had lots of chances and just weren't able to capitalize. A few turnovers here and there (I'm looking at you, Jones and Carter) but overall, not bad at all.

Oh wait. I forgot about the 5 goals that the Sens scored. Look, no way was Nitty gonna get the W tonight. It's the curse of being the starter. Too much pressure and it gets into your head. Nitty actually looked solid for most of the game, and most of the goals he let in were just bad breaks. Well, except for that last one where he was totally out of position. I'll have to watch the replay and see what the hell happened there.

I tell ya though, start calling Marty the #1, and Nitty will spring back into form just fine.



Best part of the game (well second best really) was seeing Gator again. I missed him back in December, so tonight was my first time seeing him since he left us. He was scruffalicious as usual and still looks like a Flyer to me!

Best part of course, was seeing Jess and Soph, because not only do they rock, but they shower me with gifts at every opportunity. Yay! Tonight's haul was a Valentine's card with a picture of Gator rocking the fu manchu, a big Tits card, and a half naked picture of Kovalev. Wait...what?
