Monday Morning Skate: New York on my mind

The Philadelphia Flyers kick off a four-game road trip tonight. They’ll play the Rangers at Madison Square Garden tonight and Wednesday, then the Islanders on Thursday and Saturday.

The Flyers have lost four of their last five games, including three of four at home, and are looking for a jolt on the road.
