Flyers Skate With Rangers Tonight

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – The Flyers are on the road tonight as they visit their division rival, the New York Rangers.

Philadelphia is just 2-4 here in the early-going of this lockout-shortened season, but one of their wins came at the expense of the Rangers.  Flyers skating away with a 2-1 win at the Center on Thursday.  That snapped an eight-game losing streak for the Flyers at the hands of the Rangers.

The Flyers are coming off a split-decision over the weekend in Florida.  They hammered the Panthers on Saturday night 7-1, but followed that up by getting smacked in Tampa on Sunday, 5-1.

The Rangers are 2-3 on the campaign.  They last skated on Saturday when they picked up a 5-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs.

KYW's Matt Leon spoke with Dave Isaac, who covers the Flyers for the Courier Post, about the match-up and what he has seen from the Flyers so far this season.
