The Philadelphia Flyers are pushing hard for a playoff spot but they aren’t losing sight of the bigger picture. Since Danny Briere took over as general manager, the organization has been clear that they are going to rebuild this the right way. He, along with Keith Jones and John Tortorella have formed a triumvirate atop the organization to get this thing back on track.
The Flyers are finding a lot more success than anyone really thought this season, though. They’re firmly in a playoff spot here in the middle of February, and public models and oddsmakers alike give them a pretty good chance of making the postseason.
