The New-look Philadelphia Flyers Shook Off

The new-look Philadelphia Flyers shook off any chemistry problems and perfectly played

the role of party crashers Thursday night at TD Garden.It helped that their most high-profile addition was on top of his game.Goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov made 22 saves, including 17 on 17 shots over the last two periods, as the Flyers beat the Bruins 2-1 on the night Boston raised its 2011 Stanley Cup championship banner."wholesale nfl jerseys Through the course of the game, even after the first two periods, they did not have a lot of shots on net. A lot of the ones they did have we quality chances," Flyers coach Peter Laviolette said. "The chances were relatively close after two periods, but he was equal. He kept himself in the game. In the second period it seemed like we generated more zone time and more shots on net. The ones that slipped through us were some mistakes that we made. But he was able to bail us out. He played really strong.Claude Giroux and another newcomer, Jakub Voracek, scored the Flyers' goals 47 seconds apart in the final minute of the first period. Led by Bryzgalov and a team defense that blocked 17 shots, the Flyers killed off four of five Boston power plays, including two entire ones and part of a third in the last period."Our penalty kill was [effective], you've got to sacrifice a lot. Blocking shots, battling hard in front, pick up rebounds, and actually we did everything today and executed well," said Bryzgalov, who signed a nine-year deal with the Flyers this summer. "I think that's a big reason why we won the game tonight."The Flyers had to wait around for 40 minutes in the dressing room after warmups while the Bruins enjoyed their ceremony, which included a passing of the Stanley Cup from player to player, a few brief speeches and then the banner raising.

The Flyers were among the teams eliminated by the Bruins (in four straight in the second round), so they might have had some extra incentive to make the night a little less of a Boston celebration."Coming to a game here, especially the first game of the season when they are raising the banner, it's a slap in the face and its motivation for a little payback even though it's the first game of the season," Wholesale Jersey Giroux said. "It's good for our ego and everybody was ready to go tonight."The Bruins seemed more ready to go in the early going -- and they got on the scoreboard first 9:42 into the game. On their first power play of the night, Brad Marchand took a Tyler Seguin blue line-to-blue line pass to the net and beat Bryzgalov with a forehand against the grain as he crossed the slot.
