Martin Biron made 40 stops for his first shutout of the season as the Flyers blanked Buffalo, 3-0, at HSBC Arena.
Jeff Carter scored twice including an empty-netter and Scott Hartnell also lit the lamp for Philly, which has won four of five and has points in each of its last five contests.
It was the first shutout in Buffalo since Tommy Soderstrom turned the trick in a 2-0 victory on December 27, 1993 at the Aud.
The Flyers return home to face Wayne Gretzky's Phoenix Coyotes tomorrow night.

- A Flyers and hockey fan since age 6. SJP, Boston College and Temple graduate, former sports/newscaster for a Delaware radio station now working in sports writing for a company in Pennsylvania. I aim to provide as much factual information as possible in as timely a manner as possible given job constraints and life issues. Since I'm free of editorial control, I also want to give straight, insightful opinions, some of which often lay to the partisan side of any issue, that are also one step beyond the normal blogger or legitimate website experience. All material on the blog is written exclusively by me under my real name, unless specifically denoted otherwise.
