Before we got started on this one for the Flyers, we made a few changes since the last game. We changed the difficulty from Pro to All-Star to give things a tighter feel. And we also made penalties slightly less frequent.
The lines remained the same from the previous game. With Brian Elliott starting against Tampa, we went with Carter Hart for this one. And he was a huge factor, per usual.
There was already a different feel to this game. The checking was tighter and there weren’t as many open opportunities.
