Back in December, the Philadelphia Flyers began to establish a reputation as a third period team, capable of improbable comebacks and unlikely wins.

The OHL announced Wednesday that Anthony Stolarz has been suspended eight games for the below incident. *** London Knights goalie Anthony Stolarz, a 2012 draft pick of the Flyers, probably regrets this.
