The non-Flyers hockey world continues to labor under a very memorable, yet severely out-of-date, image for the team as the 1970s Broad Street Bullies.

The only game I'm sure I'm going to this year is the day after Thanksgiving against the Caps...kind of a family tradition. Do you have season tickets?

Bergeron for bending down - probably to avoid the hit - and Jones for not changing the aim some to mitigate it a little more.<BR/><BR/>But, like I said, that's my reptilian brain speaking...we all know it's not rational! :)Nadinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18044218957743824725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952193477744633758.post-67993246315131465672007-10-28T15:39:00.000-04:002007-10-28T15:39:00.000-04:00Teka, I agree that it was more of a dumb hit than ...Teka, I agree that it was more of a dumb hit than a "dirty" one, which is what Julien called it in the interviews.

Ill-advised, possibly, but illegal? My inner derby girl sees it as a target-fixation hit... see the opposite team's colors going past you, and damn, if you can line it up, you're there.
