Flyers 5, Sabres 2: Ryan Hartman really wants you to like him

Hey guys, it’s me, or the hollowed-out husk of the person I used to be. Is any of this worth it without Wayne Simmonds? Be honest. Does any of this matter?

The Flyers won tonight, and it made me happy, until I remembered the whole thing about Wayne Simmonds, and now I’m sad again. Please allow me some time to mourn.

The Flyers started off right away looking pretty competent, which is always something worth noting when it happens. The first line had a fantastic first shift, and Nolan Patrick wasted no time in drawing a penalty just 36 seconds in.
