Here at SB Nation, it’s Marvel week, meaning that (obviously) the worlds of the NHL and superheroes will collide.
Today, I present you with a thought exercise: what if the Flyers were the Avengers? Bet you haven’t thought about that one before. In my eyes, there are two ways to understand this question. Either we are casting the Flyers in the roles of the Avengers as actors, or we assume that they have the physical or mental powers of the characters in the movie. For the purpose of this article, while perhaps the former approach may be easier, I think it would be best to take a mixed approach to the question.
