Fear The New And Improved Zac Rinaldo
Via NHL.com.
By Jake Pavorsky (@JakePavorsky)
It was a slow first period at the Wells Fargo Center, something the Philadelphia Flyers were well used to this season. Neither Philadelphia nor their opponent for that evening, the Toronto Maple Leafs, could get anything generated offensively, leaving the fans somewhat restless.

What About The Rinaldo Hits From Last Night?

While this “distance traveled” is language used to determine charging under Rule 42, Zac Rinaldo created a legal approach when he glided a remaining number of feet prior to delivering his check on Volchenkov. The contact Rinaldo made on Volchenkov would also be considered...
For The Ladies: Flyers Goon Zac Rinaldo Mirror Photos To Lust Over
Ever heard of Philadelphia Flyers goon Zac Rinaldo? Yeah, we hadn’t either.

Not a great brawl, but proof that he drops ‘em early and often.
So, of course, we’re kinda figuring we...
