VOORHEES, NJ - Well, it's do or die time for our Flyboys tonight. I wanted to touch on a couple things and I'd love to hear your feedback on it. I have to say all year long the two things I've been frustrated with both deal with inconsistency. 1.) Inconsistency on defense. 2.) Inconsistency on offense. While the Flyers outshot the Penguins 46-26 in Game 4 I felt that while Marc-Andre Fleury was spectacular, the Flyers still didn't get many quality chances.

PHILADELPHIA - Sergei Samsonov scored at 3:53 of overtime and the Carolina Hurricanes snapped the Philadelphia Flyers' six-game winning streak 3-2 Friday.

PHILADELPHIA - Mike Knuble scored two goals, including the tiebreaker at 14:52 of the third period, and the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Dallas Stars 4-3 Monday night for their fifth straight victory.
Simon Gagne set up the go-ahead goal by stealing the puck at the blue-line and passing it to Mike Richards, who fed Knuble in the slot for a one-timer.
Scottie Upshall and Jeff Carter also scored for the Flyers, who have won six of seven. Gagne extended his points streak to eight games (three goals, eight assists) with a
