Flyers want to 'emulate' Eagles; Brian Elliott returning to lineup

The Eagles have set the bar high for the city’s other pro sports teams, including the Flyers.

Most of the Flyers got together at the Vesper Sporting Club in Center City and watched the Eagles’ thrilling Super Bowl win Sunday night. They were inspired by the emotional victory.

“Just to see everyone celebrating and obviously the thoughts are ‘what if it was us?’ ” defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere said after practice Monday in Voorhees. “It’s great for the city … and obviously we want to emulate what happened and keep the party going.”

Center Scott Laughton said it was “really cool to see how electric the city was and how crazy it was” Sunday night.
