This is Philadelphia, so there's already a buzz that Flyers coach John Stevens' job security could be in trouble if the club's losing streak reaches eight games after weekend games with the New Jersey Devils.

Puh-leeeeeeze.

Stevens should NOT be on the hot seat. Last year's strong regular-season finish and the team's drive to the Eastern Conference finals has to count for something, right?

The Flyers are 0-3-3 because their goaltending and defense have been lousy, their power play has been inconsistent, and they miss some of last year's players (R.J. Umberger, Jason Smith, Sami Kapanen, the injured Derian Hatcher and Jim Dowd) more than they expected.

That said, relax. Take a deep breath. It's early. The Flyers have played mostly strong teams thus far and they've been competitive in every game except for their horrible effort in a 5-2 loss at Colorado.

Give the four new defensemen time to play together and hold the fort until the injured Randy Jones and Ryan Parent return in December.

This team is short on defensive talent right now, but the effort has been there in five of the six games. So don't blame Stevens.

If the losing continues, GM Paul Holmgren will probably deal some prospects/draft picks/veterans for a proven defenseman. That's a much more logical solution than firing a man who was the Hockey News' Coach of the Year last season.

Goalie Marty Biron needs to step up tomorrow when the Flyers play at old nemesis New Jersey. Biron (5.00 GAA) needs to stop the bleeding. He will be matched against the NHL's hottest goalie, the ageless Martin Brodeur (1.30 GAA).

Que tal tirar o melhor jogador do time e atual lider em pontos por 1 mês?

Danny Briere fora de 3 a 4 semanas....

Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren gave the following update on Flyers center Danny Briere prior to tonight's Flyers-Devils game at the Prudential Center:

"Danny has a slight tear in his reptus abdominis, which is a stomach muscle," said Holmgren. "He will have surgery at Hahnemann Hospital tomorrow at 7:30 a.m. He will be out of the lineup approximately 3-4 weeks."

"I am surprised by the turn of events that happened today," said Briere. "I hate missing time, but by being aggressive, I will be back soon."

Briere currently leads the Flyers in scoring with three goals and four assists in six games.

KILL ME....KILL ME NOW!!
