February is trying to end on a high note for the Philadelphia Flyers. The team was struggling to keep themselves viable playoff contenders. They had losses to some of their important divisional and conference rivals. The Flyers needed to win a majority of their February games to make up for lost points in the wild card spot. Currently, the team sits five points back of the leading Carolina Hurricanes. They have the potential to make the playoffs if they keep playing with strong lines and a good defense. There is a dent in the plan that the Flyers didn’t see coming and it’s a big one.
