Flyers -
Two goals by two Flyers would generally make for a good story. But, not last night.
Wow, was that scary. Seeing Chris Pronger leaving the ice screaming after he was hit around, or on, his eye against the Maple Leafs.
I felt particularly bad because I had just been with him less than a month ago.
I interviewed Pronger in the Flyers' locker room after practice in Voorhees.
While he is a very physically imposing presence, he is also a good guy to talk with.
The man truly seemed like he was healthy and ready to skate into the new season.
I thought last night about also interviewing Bernie Parent a year ago. He told me that his vision was restored through surgery.
Increased equipment protection must be imposed in the NHL. The lives of these men matter too much.
