It’s been a wild couple of days in FlyersLand, but the show must go on. The Ottawa Senators are in town tonight, and that’s fitting given that the Sens might be the one organization currently more dramatically on fire than ours. They have a front office as messy as ours, a penalty kill that’s sometimes just as bad, sometimes worse than ours, and an uncertain future on a number of fronts, not just on the ice. What a fun time to be a hockey fan! We were joined by the wonderful Micah Blake McCurdy of HockeyViz.com to get a little insight into what the Senators look like since our last meeting with the team. We discussed:The recent great play of Matt Duchene, and if the Senators will even attempt to hold onto him - or the other star players that need contracts like Mark StoneChris Tierney, and if the possibility of a successful future thanks to rookies on cheap contracts playing great hockey is a real oneEugene Melnyk and his insistence on ruining everything he touchesRon Hextall, because we had to

The Flyers are coming off of a well-deserved victory against the Rangers that may have them a little tuckered out, but the Leafs are playing back-to-back too so we can’t use that as an excuse this time. It’s no secret that the Maple Leafs are a better team playing better hockey than our boys, but they have some weaknesses that the Flyers can exploit if they, you know, try hard. In an effort to learn a little about about the 2018-19 version of the Maple Leafs we had a talk with Sean McIndoe - or DownGoesBrown, if you will - from The Athletic and Canadian television and your local bookstores and stuff. Here’s what we chatted about:The Leafs’ solid goaltending, and when riding the hot hand is too much pressureWilliam Nylander, because of courseThe Leafs’ young defense, that probably gets a little underratedA hockey professional’s outside opinion about the current state of your Philadelphia Flyers
