Flyers overcome Lightning

Flyers fans are finally relieved because their team overcame the Tampa Bay Lightning for the first time this season. Tuesday night on February 15, Flyers Defenseman Kimmo Timonen saved the flyers by scoring in the seventh round of the shootout in overtime making the final score 4-3. By gaining this win against Tampa, the flyers confidence is more then ever since loosing to Tampa the first three meetings. “They had our number three times this year and we definitely wanted to make sure we pushed back a little bit just to prove they didn’t have our number completely “(Flyers player John Van Riemsdyk). Both teams are at the top rankings of the Eastern conference, and will not play again till the playoffs, if they meet.
