Phantoms also win.
3 more pre-season games left. 2 against un-beaten Rangers and one against powerhouse Pens. Now comes the test.

Wow, my 2nd line got creamed, all -4. Thanks for the reality check, we thought we were doing ok until that one. Interesting to see how much home ice advantage plays a factor (in my games anyway). Went from winning 5-2 at home to losing 7-1 on the road to the Flyers. The change in coach strategy looks to be a factor too. The 1st game the Flyers paid no attention to defense to setting defense to a 4 in the second game, in turn we paid less attention to offense in the big loss. The odd thing is getting way more goals with way more attention to defense for the Flyers, although the change in league settings may be a factor as well.
