The trade deadline is a thing of the past, the Flyers are back, and things are still looking, well, largely the same around here. The Flyers played their first game since the deadline last night, picking up a tidy enough 3-1 win over the Red Wings, while looking largely neither better nor worse than they have for much of the season. That shouldn’t be a big surprise, of course—the departures were Zack MacEwen to the Kings and Elliot Desnoyers and Olle Lycksell back to the Phantoms, and the only addition was Brendan Lemieux, all of which was not going to amount to a massive move of the needle.
