With a win over the Los Angeles Kings today in snow-covered Philadelphia, the Flyers ended their winless streak at 13 games. Thanks to two goals from Cam Atkinson, a relatively strong performance from Carter Hart in net, and an overtime-ender from Scott Laughton, the Flyers were able to make today’s game—featuring the debut of 22-year-old tall guy Isaac Ratcliffe, 100-level-only seating thanks to last night’s bomb cyclone, and a little pre-game ceremony honoring Keith Yandle’s games played streak—something worth sitting down to watch on a Saturday leading up to some playoff football.
When things are bad, one of the best things you can do to get through it is remember to celebrate the little victories.
