Let’s do that hockey with James Minger!

My name is James Minger, and I, like you have been burdened with a lifelong love for the Philadelphia Hockey Flyers. My love for the game started in the (not so) mean streets of Langhorne, PA. With a day-glo Mylec in hand, I was hooked! No matter how cold or hot it was outside, I was playing street hockey. Turns out no one wanted to be the goalie so that is where I found myself to keep the game going. I’ve been stuck in goal ever since.

Even though he’s the name we shall not speak, I grew up idolizing Ron Hextall and all of the great 90’s goalies. My love for the Flyers really became ensconced in the Legion…
