Fledgling Flyers lose to Penguins

Wow, now that was just flat out disheartening. The Flyers began the 2006-2007 campaign off in a nasty fashion by losing to the Penguins 4-0 at Mellon Arena, which will be completely empty by sometime next week. Sidney Crosby, Michele Oullet, and Jarko Ruutu scored the goals for the Penguins.

The defense struggled quite a bit for the Flyers, and the Penguins just took advantage of Randy Jones and Nolan Baumgartner. Geoff Sanderson was the only guy on the ice for the Flyers who even played a decent game, with Petr Nedved also having to get some praise as well. 40 shots on Marc-Andre Fleury, and zero goals. It was just that kind of night in Pittsburgh.
