So So here we go! The battle of Drysdale versus Gauthirer… or something like that.

Apparently, Ducks forward Gauthrier, the highly toughted former pick of the Flyers, who had asked for a trade for reasons that are still kind of blurry, has circled this game on his calendar and is excited to play against the team that he refused to go to, but wanted him… So yeah, that’s kind of confusing…

Tortorello was asked about this, of course, and he said he could give a bleep… totally on target for John Tortorello and kind of why I like him him as a Flyers coach. Philly does not love to be disrespected, and of course, the best instance of this would be Gritty.

I was there for Gritty’s first performance, and he was almost booted off the ice in the Wells Fargo Center during a preseason game… However, Gritty was so bizzarre that news around the world started to spread, and he was being made fun of onthe Colbert show, and suddenly the Philly fans are like, “Screw your, he’sours. We like him now because you don’t.”

In my opinion, the Flyers should’ve circled this game for one reason and one reason only .. We are the orange team not you. But I guess orange is the new orange.

Gonna have to have two TVs on today while I watch this game and the USA versus the invincible Latvia teams who showed Canada what it it means to be a hockey country last night ….

I will be presdent in the comments though so see you there ….
