VOORHEES, N.J. -- Goalie Michael Leighton practiced Sunday here at SkateZone, the Flyers' suburban practice rink, as starter Brian Boucher's backup, but forward Danny Carcillo, who was injured in the Flyers'5-4 overtime victory Friday night, did not practice and may miss Game 5 Monday in Boston (7 p.m., VERSUS, TSN2).
The Flyers staved off elimination Friday night when Simon Gagne, who missed the previous four games with a broken foot, scored at 14:40 of overtime. The Flyers now trail the , 3-1.
If Carcillo, who sat on the bench for the third period and overtime, can't play, his likely replacement is Jon Kalinski, a left wing who can play center and who brings some grit. That's necessary when you're replacing a player nicknamed "Car Bomb."
Carcillo was rocked early in the first period by a check thrown by Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk, but played on through the final minutes of the second period.

Carcillo out for game 5?
Fan favorite (yeah right) Daniel "the Hack" Carcillo is out for game five after getting smoked by Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk if I can find the video I will post it. LGM's boy Jon Kalinski could replace the Flyers hack Daniel Carcillo in the Flyers line up on Monday.

YEA!! Hopefully Kalinski gets to play and whoops some Bruin butt!
ReplyDeleteLOL... I was wondering how long it would take before you commented. :)
ReplyDeleteNodl is also in the Philly Line up.
Yeah, I knew Nodl was and was wondering why since Kalinski is better than him!
ReplyDeleteDang how did I miss this? Any luck on a video feed yet? So far nothing on youtube.
ReplyDeleteUnforunately, I can't seem to find the video of the hit in question.
ReplyDeleteAre we sure or is this a ploy by Carcillo to get Savard in trouble with the league?
ReplyDeleteFor all we know, Carcillo's faking it...and had to leave the game to avoid exposing the fraud he is.
