In a couple of hours the Flyers get to put all that Winter Classic mumbo-jumbo behind them and get back to playing indoor professional hockey…without any goddam “Sweet Caroline” third period stoppages. Today, the Flyers are in Ottawa to battle the Sens for an important two points. Let’s get for real for serious extreme-focus, SAT-prepping serious right now, as all points from here on out are, as my 5th grade teacher used to say, “uuuuge.” This is already the third matchup of the season between the Flyers and Sens. Each team has won a game, and with Ottawa playing some good hockey, the Sens find themselves in 5th place right now. 5 points seperate the Sens and Flyers, and for Philly, it’s extremely important to keep the good vibes rollin’ and grab points whenever possible. After a horrendous start to December, the Flyers have battled back and started playing up to their potential again. Currently on a 6 game road trip, the Flyers are 4-0-1, looking to end on a high note. We can all agree that over these past 5 games we’ve seen a much more determined team.
