It’s been a wild ride of a season, starting with not a soul believing the Philadelphia Flyers could finish outside the bottom ten, to the Flyers now holding down third place in the Metropolitan Division. It may not be the tank some wished for in order to get top-end talent, but it has been an enjoyable and exciting season all the same: young players have taken a step, vets have stepped up, and free agent signings have stepped in.
Still, this is a rebuilding team, and the March 8 trade deadline looms. Trades are likely, if not imminent.
