Up and Down Game:

Game Notes:
Last time the Sharks lost to the Flyers was on Dec 21, 2000, they have owned the Flyers for some time now, and tonight's game would be no different. First for the Bad: Like in their most of their last games the Flyers scored first on 4 on 4. The Sharks had poor blue line push, struggled in their own end, and the back checks were weak at the best. Now for the Weird: It seemed the Flyers and Ref's were having trouble staying on their skates they fell at least a dozen times. Malhorta scored for the Sharks then scored for the Flyers, did you catch that, yes I said he scored for the Flyers. Pickle was in a fight, yes I said Pickle was in a fight, can you believe that shit. He received his first 5 fr fighting major in his NHL career. Now for the Good: Malhorta scored 3 of his 4 goals come against the Flyers. They had great communication on the fly and in their own end at times. Great penalty kill and power play, I say that cause they scored Short handed, on the Power Player and Even Strength. McLaren also was in a little brawl of his own against #13 of the Flyers of course the tough McLaren won that bout.

Special Moments:
Dany Heatley aka Heater; 9th of his career Hat Trick
Joe Thornton, his 600th career assist




Stars of the Game:
1. Heater with his Hat Trick
2. Jumbo with his 600th career assist

4. Pickle fight and over all great game
