It’s just about that time, folks. With just one article, we’re closing out our development camp talks, and shifting our focus to the future. That’s right, I said all in one article. And who serves as a better case to help us do this than our pal Pascal Laberge. He had a pretty solid development…

Reports are now suggesting that the deal is just about wrapped up. (UPDATE: The Flyers confirmed and announced the contract on Friday morning.) ESPN’s Pierre LeBrun reports that…
*Well, the Flyers came home to the Wells Fargo Center and laid a big wet poop on the ice, and we didn’t even get to see the Gritty pre-game shenanigans on television. It was a bad night, is what I’m saying. RECAP! *At least we have Gritty. Sweet, beautiful Gritty. [NBC Sports Philly] *Our series…
