At some point, every season, the Flyers sit atop the Atlantic Division, and often on top the entire Eastern Conference.  Last year, we were the top dog heading into the Olympic break, before falling apart and almost missing the playoffs.  Right now, we’re 5 points clear of the Rangers and Penguins in the division, and we had a brief lead in the conference until the Capitals leap-frogged us. Still, since we play most of our games against our division rivals, it makes most sense to pay focus on them. Normally, the Atlantic is one of, if not the, toughest division in the league. Since 2000, 6 of the 10 Stanley Cup finalists that represent the East have been from our division.  Three of them have captured the Stanley Cup .  So if you can shine here, you know that you have a pretty good club.
