I remember him saying that he would be a good pick up, but he was nothing Flyers fans would get excited about... But who could have forseen him playing this well...?

I said earlier this week that Grossmann reminds me a bit of big Hatcher. He isn't quite as flat out nasty as Hatch, but he has some mean to his game. I love it.

- Lexington Flyer


amen, brotha. any dman that reminds me of hatch is off to a good start. unless we are only discussing skating speed

I don't think you can handle it but here goes:
a permanent neck injury, 2 bad rotator cuffs, a knee replacement needed in ~ 15 yrs & lwr back disc herniation w/ stenosis. so don't mess!

I think Bill would agree that Grossmann is playing better then he expected he would. I know Bill said he would be a good fit, but I dont think anyone expected him to be this good.

What Bill said to paraphrase. Is that Grosmann wasn't a guy that would do a whole lot with the puck. He's make the simple play. and is a solid defender and penalty killer that would help the Flyers.

Anyone know anything about this injury to Callahan? All I found is their thread where it says this could actually be a fracture. Just wondering, like to keep an eye on the enemy
- JoeRussomanno

I've been saying it was a fracture all along. Even if it were a bad bone bruise, I can't see him wearing a boot on it and missing this many games.

Day off for Bryzgalov, maintenance day for Grossmann today. All other healthy regulars practiced today. Kubina skated on his own before practice. Meszaros still off-ice.

I would be okay with keeping Kubina out 1 more game and bring him in on Sat.

Not positive, but he was probably taking treatment. He did practice today.

I guess it depends on whether they let it heal or he's reinjuring it/preventing healing by the abortive attempts to play.
