Well, now it’s officially over.

When the highlights…
*Remember when you were a senior in college, and technically you had enough credits to graduate, but you still had to finish up? Sure you still have some classes left this semester, but they don’t really count, so how could you possibly care?

*The Flyers extended your emotional involvement with them by winning on Wednesday night, so since you still care (probably), here’s what we learned.

They also announced that they had loaned defenseman Philippe Myers to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. You can read the full press release here.
