Can confirm a Flyer left Wells Fargo Center in an ambulance. Team is expected to announce something at some point

So is it a Flyer? Or is it Holtby?

Or both?

Hmmm... Emery punched Holtby in the head 25 times, he stayed in the game and clowned these losers with a shutout.

Downie got punched once and goes out on a stretcher.

Don't want to break the ongoing thread up but I am about to write up my thoughts on the massacre tonight and post a brief gameday thing for tomorrow, since I will be unable to write during the morning.

Love that you show up even when the Flyers don't

Flyers camp invitee Andrew Ryan had 5 points (2G, 3A) in a 15 - 5 Halifax win

Well considering Holtby stayed in the game and finished the shutout, it's real unlikely that it was him...probably Lecavalier or Downie.

I didn't see the end of the game....missed the fights too.

So, it's one of Vinny or Downie. I can't (frank)in believe this.

I hope it isn't Vinny.

And I hope it's precautionary.

Rinaldo took a heavy slapshot to the abdomen late in the game as well.

The positive news is Raffl back on the top line, Rosehill back in the lineup baby!


- PLindbergh31

Top line was fine with Raffl on it. Never should've been moved off. Too much over thinking and moving pieces who haven't earned the right to be moved up.

So that narrows it down to sometime between now and eternity. Not sure why all the secrecy, even if they don't have all the details.

And Joel Ward had a hat trick...clearly the strangeness of Halloween is still lingering.

Thanks OB, but honestly, I won't watch them.

Downie was Flyer taken to hospital

Rinaldo looked stellar on the PK.

Not going to jump to conclusions, but that shot to Downie sure looked like upper cheek bone outside shot at lower orbit. No laughing matter for anyone whose had the courage to be in a fight with such carnage.

dude he's a mall cop he has no courage

It's probably safe to assume that Downie's flyer career lasted all of 40 minutes. Hopefully that Talbot trade came with a 30 day money back guarantee.

In all seriousness though, I hope Downie is all right and that his concussion is not a career ending one.

Holmgren won the trade. Case closed.
