Looks like it will be both of them..

Has Lava put out his lineup already? Not a shock as Kubina tends to be a little too relaxed, for lack of a better description.

Both were equally awesome when I was 7.

Oh hell yeah. I liked them both when I was young also. However watching them now I can't help but laugh.

A real sign of when a Penguin coach or player has it made in this league: when a Flyer or Ranger fan changes his name in a lame attempt to make fun of him.

pfft!
PFFFT!

Come on bro! PFFT!

He has been practicing with Jody Shelley.

He hasnt been the same since his injury. I think practice pairings have been
Carle-Timonen
Grossmann-Coburn
Lilja-MAB
Shelley-Kubina

I guess the injury was worse than advertised. I hope Lilja and Bourdon aren't on the ice when Crosby and Malkin are. Chinese fire drill time.

Which is exactly what made them so great then. I have so much more respect for my dad after watching them at 24 as opposed to 7. My old man had to have watched those movies 100 times.

How's your travel day shaping up? Any better?

He hasn't played great, but he's a better option than Lilja. Not sure I understand this.

Lilja has been absolutely solid all Season long. I have no issues with him in the lineup.

I'm thinking injury. He's looked a step behind lately. Not playing as well as he did when he got here.

I suppose that's it. Trade for two guys to solidify the blueline, they both get injured, as well as Meszaros going down. Only here.

Shelley on the blue line. Interesting

Is there anything positive for the Flyers heading into the game?

really think Kubina should be in lineup unless he's injured.

Well at least other teams are dealing with crucial injuries as well. Sedin out for Vancouver, Toews for Chicago, Carter for LA ( )

Its practice. Shelley wont see the ice until next season.

This is the reason I have to believe he's hurt. You traded for him to help down the stretch, why sit him if he's healthy?

Awesome Blog as usual Bill.

Lets GO FLYERS!

I believe he played the last few games of the regular season. This is a head scratcher for me.

Carter will end up winning the Conn Smythe

I think it was to see if he could play through the injury. He was by far the worst d-man when he did play

Has to be injured. But if he was injured significantly enough for him not to be able to play, he most likely wouldn't be practicing.

Lava might play him a game in the Finals.

Unless its not an injury that will get worse. Maybe he's trying to play through it? From what I saw, it wasn't working too well.

Advanced statistics show us that the team with the best training staff is likely to win.

Bribing the other guy I work with as we speak. Two earlier flights are booked so I pretty much have to stay with the one I have now.
