The New Era of Orange: Now with Dominance

The Philadelphia Flyers tied their win streak for the season last night when they took a fifth consecutive win. Five is no small potatoes and compared to the twelve-game win streak the Oilers are on, some might not find it that impressive, but the person that thinks that is not a Flyers fan. Fans of the orange & black saw the team come off one of the worst seasons in recent memory. They then declared a rebuild, and (as of today according to MoneyPuck) have an 82.8% chance of making the playoffs while closing in on the number one spot in the Metropolitan Division. The Flyers beat two of the best teams in the NHL within the span of a week. What’s made this team decimate two of the best teams not just in the Central Division, but the NHL during the course of this win streak?

The Flyers Past and the Bright Orange Future

Since Monday night, the Philadelphia Flyers have become the talk of the NHL-world. It all started with a trade made by the Flyers organization during the 1st period of the Flyers vs the Pittsburgh Penguins. Management had decided to trade one of their top prospects, Cutter Gauthier, to the Anaheim Ducks for defenseman Jamie Drysdale and a 2nd Round Pick in the 2025 Draft. Flyers fans were stunned and rendered temporarily speechless before the anger kicked in and outcry poured all over social media.
