Flyers coach Peter Laviolette’s decision to go with Brian Boucher in net for Game 3 of Philly’s Eastern Conference quarterfinal series vs. Buffalo worked out well on Monday and Boucher will be in net again tonight in Buffalo as the Flyers look to take a commanding 3-1 series lead. However, Buffalo has opened as a slight -120 favorite on Bodog’s NHL odds.

Boucher stopped 35 shots as the Flyers' new starter to lead them to a 4-2 victory in Game 3. It was Boucher's first start and second straight win of the series after he stopped 20 of 21 shots in relief of rookie Sergei Bobrovsky in a 5-4 victory in Game 2 on Saturday. Boucher is one of 10 different starting goalies the Flyers have used in the playoffs since and including 1997. It's the most different starting goalies used by a team during that span. In two games, Boucher is 2-0 with a 1.68 goals-against average and .948 save percentage. His numbers are much better than those of Buffalo star Ryan Miller (1-2, 2.70 GAA, .915 save percentage).

The Flyers improved to 6-0-2 in their past eight visits to Buffalo, including the regular season. Buffalo has lost consecutive games for the first time since ending a three-game skid Feb. 23. When leading a series by two games to one, the Flyers have a 14-7 record in Game 4. The Sabres are 0-15 in playoff series they have trailed by 2-1.

Philadelphia is expected to be without star defenseman Chris Pronger again tonight. The Flyers are 18-10-7 without Pronger and 5-5-5 in their last 15 games. This is their first winning streak since he suffered a concussion. Sabres RW Patrick Kaleta wore a cage on his helmet during practice Tuesday to protect an undisclosed injury that forced him to miss the final two periods of Game 3. Kaleta said he'll play tonight.
