Fans couldn’t agree on a Twitter hashtag for him down the home stretch of the Flyers’ season. Was it #suckforseth? How about #groansforjones? It’s irrelevant now. Unless the Flyers decide to trade up, they won’t be drafting Portland Winterhawks defenseman … Continue reading →

Clean out day at the Skate Zone in Voorhees came way too early this year. After 48 games of hockey in a season shortened by a needless lockout, the Flyers are going home for the summer. There will be many tough decisions to come and many veteran departures during the offseason.
Over the remainder of this week, I will look at some of these issues in detail.
