PRE SEASON BEGINS TODAY !
The Philadelphia Flyers begin their first pre-season game on the road at the infamous Joe Louis Arena in Hockey Town, home of the Detroit Red Wings. This will be a great chance for the Flyers organization to get a good look at their three new net minders in action.
Flyers fans are excited to see Ray Emery in goal, as well as talented goaltender Johan Backlund from Sweden. Chris Pronger and Ian Laperriere are welcome additions to the team, however are not likely to see tonnes of action in the pre-season due to their veteran experience.
The young guns, Claude Giroux, Darrel Powe, Jared Ross and James Van Reimsdyk are likely to get lots of ice time. Although it's safe to say Giroux earned some stripes with his performance in last season's play-off run.
The Flyers have a lot to prove if they want to make a serious run for the Stanley Cup.... And it begins right now.
