*About an hour before the game last night we learned that not only was Sidney Crosby off the Covid protocol, but Joel Farabee was placed ON. Because we cannot enjoy nice things. Ever. [Inquirer]
*But the Flyers won! Mostly because Claude Giroux carried them there! RECAP!
*It would seem that the Flyers players that were unfortunate enough to contract Covid-19 did all get out of it unscathed. Travis Konecny hasn’t felt great since coming back to the team, which is a real bummer. [Inquirer]
*Despite not feeling 100, Konecny has developed some theories about why Joel Farabee is so dang good right now. [Inquirer]
*So let’s talk about Carter Hart. Charlie did the legwork here and looked at every single goal he’s allowed this year to see just how “bad” he’s been. [The Athletic]
