This. Not at all convinced that Hutchinson is nearly as big a factor as the whole team remembering to defend their own end a little ... and not to try 10,000 home run breakout passes in a game.
 
Sean Couturier is out for the Flyers tonight, Oskar Lindblom is in, for the first time since being diagnosed with cancer in December.
 
And we have another game 7. Flyers beat the Islanders in the 2nd OT. Mayfield broke his stick at the offensive blue line and the Flyers took advantage going the other way.
