Kevin Hayes makes strong first impression in Flyers preseason opener

Hockey was back in Philadelphia Monday night and Flyers fans couldn’t have been happier. The Orange and Black took to the ice for the first time in a while as they hosted the New York Islanders in a preseason tilt. Unfortunately, things didn’t go exactly the way the Flyers wanted them too. The Orange and Black dropped their preseason opener to Barry Trotz and the Islanders by a final score of 3-1. Never mind the score though; Lots of Flyers made a good first impression including newbie center, Kevin Hayes, who donned a Flyers sweater for the first time ever last night.
