In two games since the All-Star break, Ilya Bryzgalov has allowed two total goals in regulation time. Thursday, he was outstanding in the Flyers' 4-1 victory over Nashville.

“He was really sharp tonight,” Peter Laviolette said. “He seemed really focused in there. He is working hard in practice. He has been sharp in practice and I think it has followed right through to the game.”

It's only February. Maybe Bryzgalov really is what he is being paid to be: The Flyers' first dominating goaltender in years.

But is that enough? Or do the Flyers need help at the trade deadline?
