What to make of a Flyers team that loses to the "bottom feeders" but defeats the leading teams in the NHL?
It's not the best way to make it into the playoffs. But, if they make it, isn't it exactly what you want this team to do?
In other words, they are going to have to beat the "best" teams if they want to make any sort of a deep playoff run. And, based on their performance in the regular season, it looks like they can rise to the occasion. The Flyers have recently beaten (in no particular order) the Blues, Rangers, Predators, and Lightning.
I read an article on NHL.com pegging the Blues as Stanley Cup contenders the day before the Flyers scored three unanswered goals on them in the third period last night to win. So what does anyone really, really know about the Flyers this season?
They just have to make it to the playoffs. The game tomorrow in Boston is HUGE.
But I don't need to tell you that.
