The Philadelphia Flyers may have only lost to the New York Rangers by one goal on Monday night, but the score belied the true lopsided nature of the game. Only a stellar performance from Steve Mason kept the game close, as the rest of the squad struggled to establish much in the way of scoring…
On April 15, 2014, the Philadelphia Flyers signed defenseman Andrew MacDonald to a six-year, $30 million contract, apparently signifying that he would be a core member of the team for the foreseeable future.

Rob Zombie was on Newsradio 1060 on Wednesday morning to promote his upcoming show in Allentown, and it was perfect chance for us to get an update on his long-expected Broad Street Bullies film. The last update we got on this was about a year ago, when he said on Reddit that the film was…
