20 April 2007: Buffalo Sabres center Daniel Briere warms up prior to game five of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals versus the New York Islanders at the HSBC Arena in Buffalo, NY. Buffalo defeated New York 4-3 and wins the series 4 games to 1.

After having a great 2005-06 season, the Flyers took a nosedive last season. The nosedive affected everyone from management to coaches to players. This team flat out crashed, allowing the most goals (297) and winning the fewest games (22). There were lots of other lows, too. Only one player played in all 82 contests (Derian Hatcher). Goaltending was inconsistent. Losing became an infection that kept spreading and getting worse. While Simon Gagne managed to remain a serious scoring threat, he alone could not carry his team. The injury to Mike Knuble and other key players did not help. This season the Flyers look to lift themselves up off the ground and turn everything around.
