"It makes me feel unbelievable," Schultz said Saturday night. "I don't think I can grasp it all yet. I mean I have, to a certain extent, that I will forever be in the Flyers organization. It is very special."

Fans are encouraged to be in their seats at 6:45 p.m., when a video montage will attempt to capture Schultz' toughness with a few of his on-ice fights. Schultz will then address the crowd with a brief speech.

Slap shots

Rookie forward James van Riemsdyk missed Saturday's game with the flu. He could be ready to play tonight, which would make him healthy enough to fly with the team to Los Angeles right after the game.

THE WEEK AHEAD

vs. New Jersey

Tonight, 7 o'clock

Hall of Fame nights always make for memorable games. Tonight, against the quiet Atlantic Division-leading Devils, will be no different as New Jersey aims to match the NHL record for most road wins to start a season. The Devils are 9-0-0 on the road and victors in eight straight overall. Martin Brodeur has been his usual stingy self after a rocky start to the season; he is fifth in the NHL with a 2.16 GAA.

at Los Angeles

Wednesday, 10:30 p.m.

There is no doubt that the Flyers will be tired on Wednesday night when they faceoff against the Kings at the Staples Center. They will jump on a charter flight as soon as tonight's game wraps up at the Wachovia Center and fly all night to try and avoid being jetlagged on the West Coast. Terry Murray's surprising 12-7-2 squad, which is 5-2-1 at home, is wrapping up its own five-game East Coast trip tonight in South Florida. The Kings are led by NHL-leading scorer Anze Kopitar, who has posted 31 points so far. It will be Randy Jones' first game against his former team.
