The Detroit Red Wings came out flat-footed once again tonight. What else is new? Somehow these players need to start these hockey games on time. We can blame the coaching staff, but it comes to a point and time where the players need to decide to amp up their effort.
The Flyers started Carter Hart in goal tonight. It was his NHL debut, he is highly touted and is expected to be a star. Although he is still a little “green” he looked very solid and confident tonight. I would have liked the Detroit Red Wings to put a bit more pressure on him, especially early in the hockey game.
