*Playing other equally crappy teams is clearly the key to success for the Flyers! Seriously though, last night's game was a good, solid win. I'll take it. Recaps! BSH, CSN Philly, Philly.com, Delco Times, Flyers.com.

*BSH recaps what we're loosely calling the "game" against the Bruins on Saturday. (BSH)

*This weekend marked the long-awaited return of Andrej Meszaros to the lineup. He looked a bit rusty, but that's kind of expected. (CSN Philly)

*The Flyers made an odd and seemingly useless roster move this weekend, sending Boucher back to Glens Falls and bringing Michael Leighton back to Philly to backup Bryz. (Philly.com)

*This weekend also saw the end of that insufferable Blackhawks streak. Good riddance! (SB Nation)

*The Phantoms won an exciting come-from-behind win against the Whale on Saturday. (Flyers Faithful)

*The Flyers need to play with more urgency if they want to turn this thing around, says Sam Carchidi and everyone else on earth. (Philly.com)

*Canadian fans will likely see the Heritage Classic staged more frequently, which is great. (SB Nation)

*Wayne Gretzky thinks Crosby is the best player in the game. Eh, arguably true, but he's still an infuriating jackass. (Backhand Shelf)

*In a game that also saw former Flyer Sergei Bobrovsky post his first ever shutout, former Flyer Vinny Prospal does something hilarious and gets a game misconduct for it. (Puck Daddy)
