From all accounts I've heard the guy's changed his attitude, and if he's on his game, the Flyers have the talent to go deep into the playoffs. The only barrier we have in our way IMO is the Pens

The Pens are good but don't forget we beat them two games and was up 3-0 in the 6th game before Carcillio started that stupid fight that changed the game. Not to mention that Richards was playing with two damaged shoulders and Carter with one damaged shoulder (all needed surgery) along with several other injuries to key players. With a better goaltender and other players now emerging as young stars not including what Holmgren adds in the off season I see the Flyers as fairly equal with the Pens.
