Well, today has certainly been an interesting one for the Flyers.
Earlier today, Samuel Morin was called up from the Phantoms to make his NHL debut tonight, and we got confirmation that the recently-signed Mike Veccihone would also make his NHL debut tonight. Cue the collective tears of joy, offerings to the hockey gods, and shaking of knees from Flyers fans.
Finally! We were set to see one of our top defensive prospects (one who will kill you if you stare into his eyes for too long) and our Hobey Baker finalist from the Flyers’ Junior team (known as Union College) play top-level hockey.
