Let’s talk about Jakub Voracek. He has seven goals and 17 points through 19 games this season; also, as of Nov. 17, he has a son. We’ve known for a couple of months now he was going to be a dad, but it’s all the more incredible when it actually happens, you know? Voracek does…

One game after playing some uninspiring defense and winning largely thanks to a significant goaltending advantage, the Flyers were undone by a goaltending advantage for the other team. Andrei Vasilevskiy, who is really good, stopped all 32 shots he faced…
