If patterns are to be believed, there’s a very good chance defenseman Andrej Meszaros will return to the Flyers’ lineup for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the New Jersey Devils.
Looks like Meszaros will replace Lilja on the Flyers blueline for game 5.
Many are left puzzled as the NHL has a history of not suspending the stars in the playoffs. However, Giroux will miss an important Game 5 for the Flyers
It appears Flyers rookie center Sean Couturier will play tonight against the Devils in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals at Prudential Center after leaving Game 3 on Thursday with an apparent left leg injury.
It appears as if Couturier will not miss any time.
Although goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov wasn’t particularly good in Game 1, that’s something the Flyers seem to be used to and not something you would think would hurt their confidence.
The coach said he wouldn't hesitate to make a lineup change and it appears as though James van Riemsdyk, recovering from a broken left foot, may be ready.
