The NHL trade deadline is just five days away, and the Philadelphia Flyers are open for business.
Or at least they should be.
After their embarrassing 7-0 loss to the New Jersey Devils Saturday night, the Flyers have now lost 11 of their last 14 games and sit nine points out of a playoff spot. Barring a miracle of a run, the Flyers’ odds of making the postseason are basically zero.
Now, all eyes are on James van Riemsdyk, who has long been considered a favorite to be moved at the trade deadline with his contract expiring this summer.
