What a fun day to be able to watch the tournament. Nico and Severson with big goals, Schneider with a bunch of great saves, Hughes with a couple of assists and good minutes late in the game, and the Queen with the OT loss. Yes, a good day indeed!
Flyers hire Michel Therrien and Mike Yeo as assistant coaches to previously named head coach Alain Vigneault. Lots of head coach experience right there.
It's really a sight to see as soon as the network switches over to the game in Wiinnipeg. Not only is everyone dressed in white -- we all knew that already -- but ALL the fans are in their seats sitting patiently. Not a one is walking down the aisle with food in their hands or just plain late arriving. To a man, they are ALL there to see the game.
Palmieri's been trying hard to make up for lost time.
He had a decent shot off the goalie's pads just a few minutes earlier from a similar sharp angle.
