A Lively Powerplay Provides Flyers Boost

Something that the Philadelphia Flyers faithful want that cannot be placed in a Flyer’s Santa Sack is a powerplay unit to perform the way that they did against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night. Everything seemed to fall into place. When the puck bounces the right way for one team, that’s a recipe for a successful night on the ice. The Flyers were prepared to take on the Sabres with Jack Eichel in the lineup, but he was a late scratch due to an apparent upper-body injury. That night at the Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia played three periods of quality hockey.
