Flyers vs. Sabres Preview: Wayneless in Philly

Yes folks, it finally happened, Wayne Simmonds is no longer a Philadelphia Flyer. This will be the first game the Flyers play without Simmonds, and it comes against a team they are battling with for a playoff spot. Buffalo sits one point ahead of Philadelphia, and six points out of the final wild card spot in the East, compared to the Flyers at seven points back. A win tonight would be relatively big for the orange and black, given Buffalo is one of their main competitors in this stretch drive. It may be a seemingly impossible stretch drive, but one nonetheless.
