Growing up, Easter Sunday was always a bit of a letdown in terms of holidays. The gifts were just never as good as what you’d get on Christmas or on your birthday. There was a lot of chocolate, but it wasn’t anywhere near what you’d get while trick-or-treating for Halloween. Sure the lore of the Easter bunny was still exciting, and decorating eggs to then find around the house as you also searched for where your basket was hidden was fun, but it ultimately wasn’t worth all the fuss surrounding it.
The Flyers chose to live up to my general expectations of the holiday.
