Tuesday Morning Fly By: The right time zone!

*The Flyers are in Carolina tonight which is, blissfully, in the Eastern time zone. The team will be without Justin Braun, though. And for a while, too. [BSH]

*Looks like AV will be juggling some stuff around tonight to try and get these boys going. [Inquirer]

*Charlie’s got some good stuff about the Flyers messiness since Christmas. [The Athletic]

*Meltzer has some good stuff too; of particular interest is his dive into why Alain Vigneault appears to be allergic to calling timeouts. [Hockeybuzz]

*We can pack up the World Juniors stuff with a nice little rundown of how the Flyers kids did. [BSH]

*An objective midseason grade, which becomes interesting when you see that the Flyers have moved neither up nor down from their preseason grade. Huh. [The Athletic]

*Wade Allison just can’t seem to stay healthy for any stretch of time. Which doesn’t really bode well for his future as an NHLer? It’s a bummer. [Courier-Post]

*Tonight’s game will feature, arguably, the best defenseman in the league. So that’s fun. [ProHockeyTalk]

*The Preds finally fired our old pal Pete! It was a matter of time, really. [On The Forecheck]

*And finally, did you know Morgan Frost’s dad is kind of a legend? It’s pretty cool. [The Athletic]
