1. HELLO, ITS ME
The Blue Jackets are the only team in the Eastern Conference the Flyers have yet to face so far this season, and one of just two teams in the entire league they haven't played yet (Vancouver)… Both the Flyers and Blue Jackets play the second of games on back-to-back days with the Flyers coming off a 4-2 win at home over Tampa Bay and the Blue Jackets dropping a 5-4 decision against the New York Rangers at home… The Flyers are 6-2-1 in the second game of back-to-backs, while Columbus is 4-1-3.
2. NATIONWIDE NOT ON OUR SIDE
The Flyers enter today's game having dropped eight-straight games playing at Columbus, going 0-4-4, with the last four meetings all decided past regulation play… Last season, they dropped both game by way of a shootout by a score of 3-2, while two seasons ago they lost both games in overtime… The Flyers last win at Nationwide Arena came on Dec. 13, 2005, with the Flyers receiving goals from Peter Forsberg, Sami Kapanen and Jeff Carter.
