"Cookie Monster vs Kappy"


The Philadelphia Flyers have played some strange hockey lately. One game they knock off the Senators who were red hot, the next game they drop to Washington. One game they beat the canes, next game they come out like zombies and lose to the Dallas Stars game. Stars aren't awful team but they had played an insane amount of games in a short period of time. There is no reason why the Stars could skate around the Flyers. The flyers came out almost like they didn't care past Saturday.


At the skate zone the things got heated during practice. All around nice guy Sami Kapanen and 2nd line center Danny Briere ended up fighting each other. NOw, its not uncommon for this to happen once in awhile, but it usually happens in the pre-season. What is so odd about it, is that its likely a fight bettween two of the smallest guys on the team and two guys you would never expect that from. I think Kappy has been in something like two fights since we got him. Danny is not a fighter, an occassonial dirty player with the butt of the stick in the gut, but not a drop the glvoes guy.


Well at least they seem to care still. Hopefully, there is no bad blood and they can move on. The flyers will go on the road now and play the Wild than the lanche. After that they come home for 3 games. They need to start winning games in a row. The win/lose streak needs to end if the team wants to go anywhere. Now would be a good time to start that.


Sounds like Kappy threw the first punch. Not sure if there was a winner before the teamates stepped in an broke it up.
