Flyers Ducks Notes

Selanne Scored his 600th goal last spring.
Notes
Just looking through theese two teams rosters you can already hear the players yapping. The Flyers will bring Jody Shelley, Dan Carcillo, and Scott Hartnell. The Ducks penalty leaders are also some or their biggest talents, Bobby Ryan and Corey Perry both have 27 PIM each through the 7 games of this season.

A match-up to watch is Darroll Powe and George Parros. Both attended Princeton and played together on the D1 collegic team. It should be fun to see how theese two take to each other tonight.

Rookie Drawings
Cam Fowler was predicted to be a top 3 pick in LA this past summer. However, he fell in this past year's draft down to the mid-first round and was selected by Anaheim. Anaheim may have been the team most in need of a defense man, and they scored big time getting top skill that could immediately play in the majors. Hearing he is a game-time decision, non-injury related.

Sergei Bobrovsky was lit up in his last start where he was defeated by Pittsburgh 5-1. Tonight he will make his first consectutive start against a Ducks team who's loaded with skill at the front end. Selanne decided not to retire is tearing it up this year with 3 goals and 3 assists in 7 games. Newly named captain, Ryan Getzlaf, leads the Ducks in scoring with 8 points.

Scribbles
Jonas Hiller will be in net for the Ducks tonight, he's 2-4-1 this season with a GAA of 3.45.
Danny Syvret, former Phantoms and Flyers defenseman (scored in the Winter Classic), was called up early this week and could play in place of Fowler.

game at 7 pm on CSN, 4pm in Cali.
