• If you missed Tuesday night’s Flyers game, you missed a desperate Orange and Black bouncing back with a huge win against the Toronto Maple Leafs, complete with an effort we’ve gotten used to seeing this season.
• Come for the Flyers game, stay for the Nick Deslauriers fight and takedown of Maple Leafs enforcer Ryan Reaves, who suffered a right-eye injury in the fight.
• Tortorella’s early gamble with scratching Sean Couturier made good returns on the investment, but will the early payoff last down the stretch?
