The Kurse of Kesler Kontinues
Beautiful! The Flyers' woes continue with a 4-1 loss to the Tampa Frightning and Bobby's boys remain solidly cemented into last place. It seems those 3 waivings really did the truck eh Bobby?
It's hard to believe that a Ken Hitchcock squad could be so defensively disjointed, but I've seen headless chickens with more sense of direction than the Flyers D.
And, there's more!!
While poor Nolan Baumgartner was dumped on, Chewbacca Hatcher continue to suck like Eurasian Water Milfoil and finished the night with a -3 and a stupid penalty in 22+ minutes of sucktitude. Who cares if he makes the big bucks, get rid of the guy? He's slow, he's undisciplined, and he scared little children.
Slovak rookie Stefan Ruzicka, who is NOT Vladimir Ruzicka's illegitimate Slovakian kid (just in case you were wondering), played well and got a surprising 16+ minutes of ice time. 2 shots on goal and he looked like he belonged. He certainly did a lot more than Kyle Calder, who continues to flounder and was -2 on the night.

Philadelphia center Peter Forsberg left in the first after spraining his left wrist. The Flyers' captain, expected to miss Friday night's game at Florida, was hurt when he used his arm to brace himself against the boards. A team official said X-rays were negativeAh, who had October 19th in the Peter Forsberg Injury Pool?
