The Flyers have chosen me to write the articles for Mark Howe's jersey retirement game that will run next week for their official site. Here's what I have planned:

1) A main article previewing the night, and the way Howe now has achieved just about every possible post-career individual honor: Hockey Hall of Fame, U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame, Flyers Hall of Fame, NHL jersey retirement.

2) A side article looking at Howe's top five moments in Philadelphia and a collection of tributes from former teammates.

3) Apart from the articles, there will be related links posted to the lengthy two-part Heroes of the Past retrospective and Spectrum Memories articles I did for the Flyers' site a few years ago, as well as links to other Howe-related articles that have run on the Flyers' site.

4) There should also be a video highlights package put together by the Flyers, which will be linkable from the main article.

I am really psyched to be doing this. Howe's jersey retirement is something I've been waiting a long time to see, and be even a small part of chronicling it is a thrill for me. I think everyone here knows what Howe's career meant to me -- he was my all-time favorite player.

Did you catch the Kool and the Gang convo yesterday?

Lets go flyers lets go bryzgalov

So glad Bryz is playing again . Let him have almost the rest of the season to play, give Bob a couple starts when he needs a rest. But don't bench him for playing poorly, let him work out the kinks. Here's to hoping he keeps it coming and he gets some support tonight
