The Flyers won at home for the first time in about a month against the Penguins 4-2 last night.
Petr Nedved scored his first goal as a Flyer, on the power play. Michal Handzus, Mike Knuble and Simon Gagne (empty net) also scored for the Flyers.

Antero Niittymaki played a very solid game. The first goal was a great deflection by former Flyer Mark Recchi, the second was an across the crease pass on the power play that he had no chance on.

All three defenseman call-ups Meyer, Jones and Picard played well.
Mike Richards and Shane Endicott fought after the game. Richards did pretty well and dropped Endicott.

Three stars for the game were Mike Knuble, Petr Nedved and Mark Recchi.
Mike Knuble also was #3 star overall for the NHL last night.

Turner Stevenson was a healthy scratch for the game, reason given was that he needs extra conditioning. Also, scratched at game time were Joni Pitkanen and Kim Johnsson.

Lines for last night were Forsberg-Knuble-Gagne, Handzus-Nedved-Radivojevic, Umberger-Carter-Savage, Richards-Brashear-Kapanen.

Kim Johnsson has withdrawn from playing for Team Sweden in the Olympics. His wife is expected to deliver their second child next month. The Flyers have sold out 23 of 25 home games so far this season. Simon Gagne tied his career high of 33 goals set in 01-02.

Mike Knuble has updated the Flyers Player Blog. He talks about the back to back home-and-home games against the Penguins and playing sled hockey with some paralympians.
