The TD Garden curse? It’s a thing….

This hellacious two-week string of games continues Saturday night at Boston’s TD Garden against the Bruins. Yes the team has won in the venue in recent years, but there have been some absolutely backbreaking losses in Boston around this time of the season that in previous years has sometimes been the kiss of death as to landing a playoff spot. Once or twice over several seasons is explicable, it’s the nature of sports. But when the Flyers have been in these games only to have something bad in the closing moments or seconds transpire it is beyond baffling.

Maybe the incredible 2010 playoff comeback from 3-0 down against the Bruins is the tradeoff for these losses (eight since 2008).
