Alain Vigneault has done it again. First, he transformed the Vancouver Canucks from a Weakling of the West into champions of the Western Conference. Next, he inherited a discombobulated New York Rangers team and quickly led them to the Eastern Conference title. Now he is with a Philadelphia Flyers franchise that has been mired in mediocrity. But not anymore. The Flyers are the hottest team in hockey with the NHL lines and are looking like a viable threat for the Stanley Cup. On Tuesday night they will get the ultimate test with the defending Eastern Conference champion and current first place Boston Bruins coming to town.
