The LA Kings were set to begin their Eastern Conference roadtrip and fans everywhere were on the edge of their collective seat to see if they were going to win a $100 NHL.com giftcard from @OfficialSpyder … oh, and I guess to see if their team could win some games.
But a stop in Philadelphia meant that the rest of the world apparently had to be put on hold for this:
Still, I bet that Flyers fans have gotten over the whole thing.

The Flyers' official Twitter account is trying to out-wit the Kings' account. Not sure that'll work out too well….

Too sexy.
Thanks to Jeff Carter for setting aside a few minutes to talk about last night’s game.
Jeff, how did you feel once you scored that goal against your former club, was it a big weight of your shoulders?
And did it feel any more special doing it in front of Ed Snider and Paul Holmgren, the two people who told you that you were going to spend the rest of your career in Philadelphia?
Lastly, is there anything you’d like to say to the fans who inexplicably turned on you even though you did sign that long-term contract?
