Flyers finally solve goaltending woes.

Oh no, wait.  They signed Ray Emery instead.

Hope this takes them out of the Luongo sweeps.

What's the longest NHL drug suspension ever handed out to a netminder?

I believe Pelle Lindbergh got a lifetime ban for DUI.

I'll expect a Bernie Parent eye injury post in the near future.

Just for that, I hope your frog goalie scores on himself a couple times Friday night.

Leave it up to Philly to go out and sign this bum.  

"I spent a great deal of time talking with Ray," Holmgren said Wednesday. "The thing that kept coming back is he's recognized there was a period in his life when he made some mistakes."

Boy, all that's missing in that quote is "and then he found God".

"I learned maybe more from those bad experiences than the good times we had there," he said. "I realize I had a great thing going and lost a lot of people that I enjoyed hanging out with. I want to get back to having those good relationships. I think that's the reason I'm going to change."

Uh-huh.

The Flyers will be counting on Emery. Martin Biron, their starter last season, and backup Antero Niittymaki are unrestricted free agents.

It's no wonder that organization has not won a cup since 1974.
