You gotta see what the Philadelphia Flyers did last night
If you didn't stay up late, you missed a jawn that got the blood pumpin'. The Philadelphia Flyers went to Long Island and just flat-out owned the New York Islanders, 4-1. Yeah, it was a road game, which means those New York Islanders fans probably went home even grumpier than usual. The Flyers weren't just winning, they were making a statement – even if the shots were a little close, 21-22. But who cares about shots when you’re putting the puck in the net?
Owen Tippett kicked it off in the first, then that kid Alexei Bump, he’s a real grinder, got another. But the real show was Matvei Michkov, that kid is special. He potted one himself in the second period, then set up Travis Sanheim in the third. It was a beautiful thing. The New York Islanders only managed one goal off Jean-Gabriel Pageau in the second, but that was just a blip on the radar. The Philadelphia Flyers looked like a team that means business, and that’s the kinda hockey we expect to see.
This win isn't just a win, it's a huge jawn for the Philadelphia Flyers. They're sitting at 38-26-12 now, 88 points, still fighting in the Metropolitan Division. They're on a winning streak and lookin’ good with a 7-3-0 run in their last ten. This means the playoff push is real, folks. Don't go changin' your plans for any wooder ice stands on South Street this spring, 'cause the Flyers are gonna make us proud. We gotta keep this momentum going.
No one likes us — and we don't care. Mags, MiTL, Philadelphia.
