We'll have to wait and see. Nikky on the other hand just MIGHT be better than Raycroft, IF he's given enough support (considering the Flyers' recent history, I wouldn't hold my breath.) and playing time. So we'll see. Mean time Esche will have to be the guy. Regarding Hatcher and Forsberg, color me unsuprised. If we had these guys in their peaks/primes, I doubt they'd be missing so much time. But eh, I just hope they can hold out on the grind of regular season. We'll see.I am, however, suprised the Pens traded Beach. He looked great out there plenty of times. But I guess they figured with Sid playing more Beach becomes a liability. We'll see.</blockquote>
