*Happy Festivus, Flyers fam! Is it a fake holiday from a television show? Yes. Does that mean we can’t have a bunch of fun every year on this day? Absolutely not. Come out to Xfinity Live tonight and watch the Flyers-Pens game with us!
*Anyhoo, it was a fun weekend of hockey for the Flyers, thanks to a comeback win in overtime courtesy of Owen Tippett. RECAP!
*Was a really big night from Tippett all around, and here’s hoping those proverbial flood gates have been blown off their hinges. [The Athletic]
*It was definitely one of those games that was equal parts infuriating and fun as heck, and it also snapped a three-game losing streak, so it’s hard not to feel good about that one in the end. [NBC Sports Philly]
*Olle Lycksell was up for Saturday’s game and scored a goal, even! It was called back on a stupid offside review BUT STILL. Anyway he’s back in Allentown, now. [BSH]
*Also in Allentown? Emil Andrae. For some strange reason, which John Tortorella attempted to explain to us. [BSH]
*If you’re a subscriber over at Charlie’s website you can read all of the reasons why this move makes no sense at all. [PHLY]
*Cam York was back in the lineup after his single-game scratch and is eager to get his shit together. Would be nice if he did that. [Inquirer]
*Won’t it be fun if the GMs go nuts as soon as the trade freeze is lifted? That would be fun. Here’s some moves that should be made ASAP. [ESPN]
*And finally, it’s very nearly that most wonderful time of the year: World Juniors time! We’ll have a TON of content from our most informed contributors around the tournament so be sure to check back every day to get the inside info. First up, the dark horse teams that might surprise you. [BSH]
