Since Ron Hextall took over as GM, there has been a lot of patience and anticipation of what is to come. Re-stocking the farm system and ridding the roster of bad contracts and/or replacement-level talent were the primary objectives; we’ve been over this time and again. Four years and five entry drafts later, I think…

This will be the first Flyers preseason game of the year vs. a non-Metropolitan Division team, and is the first of two meetings this preseason vs. Boston. There’s only three games left before the regular season begins, and…

Born in Yardley, he was a die-hard fan of each Philly team, but the Flyers were his clear favorite. Throughout my childhood, he purchased partial season tickets and NHL Center Ice so we…
