The Philadelphia Flyers lost to the New York Islanders 4-2 in Philly. Playing without Forsberg who sits with a groin injury the Flyers could only muster two goals, both scored by Umberger.
Nittymaki got the start in goal, his first back to back games this year. I was a little surprised to see him in goal.

‘We wanted to reward Nitty. He did a great job. We had an opportunity to do this earlier in the year and we didn’t do it. We felt we wanted to make him part of the team too. It’s not a reflection on Esche at all. I thought Nitty played very well yesterday and I’m not sure he could be faulted on any of the goals today too.’ Coach Hitchcock.

I agree, Nittymaki played a pretty good game.

Turner Stevenson left the game in the second period with a hip flexor injury. On Philly.com Hitchcock is quoted saying the hip Stevenson injured is not the hip he had surgery on missing the beginning of the season.
The game recap on NHL.com said it was the same hip.
The Flyers website list it as a Right hip flexor injury which is the same hip that was reported injured back in October.
Stevenson and Forsberg are both listed day to day.

Blake, Umberger and Snow were the three stars.
Flyers have lost four straight home games.
