 Couldn't find a Krajicek picture before I had to run, but yes, I was impressed.
I'll consider the Flyers "back" when they return to 7 games above .500. When times were tougher all I ever heard about was "aster a 12-5-1 start…" and now the Flyers are as close as they've been in this dare I say Peguninian comeback, primed to return from this road trip at that mark exactly. Last night the Flyers held a desperate team with everything to play for and nothing to lose except their houses and their children's' spots in their elementary school classes to 18 shots - not of them exceedingly difficult of Razor to gobble up.
They played good hockey.
The player off the game on the Flyers end had to be Lucas Krajicek, who even though I ripped on him yesterday came in after not skating for three days and ate up over 18(!!) minutes on the blue line. Allowing Kimmo to keep it at under 20 and Pronger and Carle below 25. Someone who probably wasn't happy about that was Braydon Coburn, who played fewer minutes than I can remember in recent history. Krajicek just looked good playing in Laviolette's system. He may have been born to pinch and he's going to get that chance playing for the Flyers. When Danny Syvret and Ryan Parent come back off the IR they're going to be struggling to avoid conditioning assignments in Adirondack if #2 can keep up that type of play.
The Captain came through last night and stellar efforts from Darroll Powe, Arron Asham, and Daniel Carcillo helped keep the Flames at bay when we weren't able to find the back of the net. That team that played last night could make a playoff run.
And just like that I'm excited again. It might be due to the post-primetime start (which I love), or the lower camera angle at the Saddle Dome (which I love), or that the Flyers are actually Magellan (yeah I did that). Either way I'm excited for the "back on track" Oilers tomorrow. I'd write more and be wittier if I had more time, but the thing about work is…well….work.
