Gagne a game-time decision for Game 4

Flyers left winger Simon Gagne said it will be a game-time decision whether he plays Friday against Boston.

Gagne, sidelined since April 20 with a broken right foot, hinted he would be in the lineup. He did not take part in Friday's morning skate in order to rest the foot.

An MRI on Thursday showed that the the foot was healing nicely. If he plays, he probably won't be used on the penalty kill, coach Peter Laviolette said.

Bostons leads the series, three games to none.

Laviolette said the Flyers were ready and that "the pressure shifts to Boston."

    I hate to say this but I think Simon Gagne, and the rest of the Flyers, should be booking weekend tee times from this Saturday on.

    We all know Gagne will play and the team will pump it up Rocky-style to try to give the crowd a lift... it will be lame.
