• If you missed Thursday night’s Philadelphia Flyers game, you’re in luck! Our three takeaways weren’t very positive ones as the Orange and Black slogged to one of their most boring defeats of the season in uninspired fashion.
• Flyers goalie prospect Alexei Kolosov is going through the visa and immigration process, preparing to resume his professional playing career with, likely, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms in the AHL, when he arrives.
