Today’s open discussion thread, complete with your daily dose of Philadelphia Flyers news and notes… *Heck of a game by Felix Sandstrom last night, huh friends? And the rest of the Flyers found a way to mostly hang with the Very Good Carolina Hurricanes. And they still lost in regulation. That’s what we love to see right now! RECAP!
