Here we are! It was a little longer wait, but the mildly anticipated rematch of Saturday’s suddenly-emotional Islanders win over the Flyers is upon us.
The teams face off at 7:30(ish) in Philadelphia, where all can be forgiven for just wanting to fire that franchise into the sun. Reminder that this is conveniently an ESPN+/Hulu/something or other broadcast only.
Will it become a fightfest or other theater for shenanigans? Chances are decent! The Flyers took exception late in Saturday’s game because #reasons, they are a battered, wounded, reeling team, and their coach probably isn’t averse to resorting to any ol’ time tactic to make the bus look mean.
