Too often in Philadelphia sports, we are tortured by teams that get us excited and then let us down. Tonight, with the Flyers playing great hockey of late and a huge game against the Red Wings in the offing, it was another perfect chance for this team and this sports town to let us down.
But nope. They were chomping at the bit to get on the ice tonight, and damn did they show it.
