*The Flyers needed to win last night and they won. It was stressful and messy and harder than it needed to be, but they won. They won. The useless Bruins, however, did not. So with Florida getting two points last night we can’t yet put that little “x” next to all of our names. Tomorrow…
*BIG DAY, FOLKS. The Hurricanes are in town and it sure would be nice if the Flyers put up a 60 minute effort, cleanly beat a lesser team, and secured themselves two of the three points needed to clinch. THAT WOULD BE REALLY NICE. [Philly.com] *Anyhoo, ahead of tonight’s game let’s look back at Tuesday…
*Well. That’s not how you want to start a series. But hey, nothing we can do now. On to Friday. Do better. RECAP! *If we are going to be saved, it may be Travis Sanheim who saves us all. [BSH] *The Flyers believe in themselves. And that’s really important when you’re an underdog. [Courier-Post] *Hey…
It’s time. Flyers-Penguins happens tonight and the guys look at the matchup.

The playoffs have begun, and somebody needs to inform the Flyers. After a blowout loss in game one, Philly seemed to right things by winning game two convincingly. But a good first period gave way to an incredible lack of discipline in game three, and that’s where we stand: Pittsburgh 2, Philadelphia 1. The gang…
*So obviously the first home playoff game of the series didn’t go the way we wanted. But there were some good things. It’s easy to lose sight of those, so let’s look back at the good (and also the bad, there was a lot of bad) with the 10 things we learned. [BSH] *One thing…
*So yesterday’s game was…not good. About as not-good as Game 1. But as we saw on Friday, this team can bounce back. So on to Game 3 we go. RECAP! *And now we have two days off. Which, folks, is going to be pure torture. Let’s soothe ourselves by reading about Sean Couturier becoming an…
Today the AHL announced that Lehigh Valley Phantoms forward Phil Varone has won the Les Cunningham Award. For those who may not follow the AHL all that closely, this award is essentially their Hart Trophy. .@LVPhantoms forward Phil Varone is this year’s winner of the Les Cunningham Award, given to the league’s most valuable player….
Steve and Craig talked about the trampling that was Game 1 and if there are any positives to take away from it.
