Preview: Flyers take on the Predators in a landmark for the franchise

The Flyers will host the Nashville Predators tonight at the Wells Fargo Center as some sort of after-party to their ceremony honoring captain Claude Giroux and his 1,000th game. The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m. EST, with puck drop coming at 7:15.

When: 7:00p.m. ET

Where: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, PA

Somehow, things have worked out so that Giroux’s millennium mark is coming just days before this season’s trade deadline in the final season of his current contract. Thanks to the Flyers’ futility this season (and last as well), Giroux is the biggest name on everyone’s trade radar, despite his expressed desire to remain in Philadelphia for his entire career and his full no movement clause.
