Return Flight: The Comeback

Throughout the season, we’ll be taking a walk down memory lane whenever the Flyers open their season series against an opponent. We’ll be remembering a game, goal, or highlight Philly created while playing against that particular team. It won’t always be the most notable memory the Orange and Black have against that team, but it’ll be something that Flyers’ fans will want to remember.

The 2009-10 season was an absurd season for the Philadelphia Flyers. After a 12-5-1 start, the Orange and Black endured a 3-13-1 stretch from November 20th to December 21st (with two wins against the New York Islanders and Kimmo Timonen potting perhaps the longest empty-net goal in the history of hockey to beat the Boston Bruins) that saw the team drop to 29th in the standings at one point in time (imagine Flyers’ twitter then).
