Ice Hockey: Gagne returns from injury to lead Flyers past Senators

Simon Gagne returned from injury to score a goal and setup another in the Flyers' 4-3 win over the slumping Ottawa Senators on Thursday in Philadelphia.

Despite missing five games with a groin injury, Gagne's tally allowed him to maintain a share of the goal scoring lead with the Carolina Hurricanes' Eric Staal with 24.

Mike Knuble, Sami Kapanen and R.J. Umberger also scored for the Flyers, who recorded their fourth win in six games.

that's the second time this season the flyers beat the sens, 1 at home 1 on the road

With all the injuries Philly's had and still kicking butt. I thought you guys we're in trouble when you lost Primeau. I was really wrong. Excellent play from Nittymaki. He's gotta be the strarter. I have no faith in Esche.
