Although it's obviously too early to put a grade on the Flyers’ off-season moves, you can’t complain with the results so far.
The team is off to one of its hottest starts in years, recording a point in each of their first five games and starting with an impressive 4-0-1 record. Their 7-2 pounding of the Ottawa Senators, who have dominated them in Ottawa since 2007, was one...
