Former Penguin & Flyer Rick Tocchet Can't Wait Until Saturday's Opener
PITTSBURGH (93-7 The Fan) - Former Penguin & Flyer Rick Tocchet checks in with Vinnie & Cook on Sportsradio 93-7 The Fan, and he can't wait to see Pittsburgh and Philadelphia square off again.
Rick reports that everyone in Philadelphia is holding their breath over goalie Ilya Bryzgalov, and says many Flyer fans are quite nervous about what Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin may do.
"The Flyers are just a little nervous because they have to go head-to-head with these guys," says Tocchet. "You have a motivated Crosby who's as healthy as he's ever been, and Malkin destroyed the KHL."
Rick also looks back on the Pens-Flyers rivalry from both sides, and explains what makes this series so special.
