The Flyers sent defenseman Robert Hagg and goaltender Anthony Stolarz back to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on Monday morning, roughly 14 hours after the NHL regular season concluded and the Flyers coaching staff sulked over beers about it.
Hagg and Stolarz still have regular season hockey to play, and they likely have a bunch of hockey to play after that as well. The AHL regular season will conclude next weekend, and as we’ve discussed in recent weeks, the playoff berth is not coming as easily as Lehigh Valley would like.
