Here is a fun fact about both me and Shayne Gostisbehere: we are both from Florida! It’s true. You may have heard it on the broadcast several times, or any time we’ve ever played the Florida Panthers, whichever. Florida ice hockey is real and alive and it is my friend, because it gave us our boy Shayne, and that’s what this is all about.
(As grateful as I am to the Panthers for this, Shayne is a grown boy now and one of us, so I will remain unbiased here.)
The Flyers looked to continue their strong play over the past couple weeks, and not for nothing, they managed to do that, just in random intervals strategically spread throughout the game like some kind of treasure hunt for us, their adoring fans.
