(Source) PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Flyers never have had a problem ramping up their effort against the Pittsburgh Penguins. It’s finding that same level against the rest of the NHL that has been an issue.
Takeaways? Flyer fans think they’re hot shit because they won a meaningless game in January. They’re on the outside of the playoffs looking in and don’t show much promise for being that team that’s one player away from something.
Real talk now, Flyers bad boy / piece of shit Zac Rinaldo has been summoned and is due for at least a 5 game suspension after his brutal hit knocking Kris Letang out of the game.
Its one thing to be a dickhead bruiser but you gotta own it man. After the game when asked about charging in to make the hit on a prone player and leaving his skates to drive Letang’s head into the glass, Rinaldo quipped “Hey, quit watching hits in slo-motion or else you’ll see all the illegal stuff!!!”
Well since you asked lets see that hit in slow motion…

The jokes continued, with Rinaldo offering his hit “changed the whole game,” saying “who knows where the game would have gone if I didn’t do what I did.”
He’s a center with 20 points in over 200 games so I don’t know if his impending suspension helps or hurts the Flyers more.
Get well soon Kris, need your help to hoist another one in June.
