I say a lot about torts as a coach, he’s understandably not my favorite…..but as a person, he always seems to be about the players (past and present, ex and current) got a lot of respect for him, and I’m so glad he set this straight
On 19 May, 1974, the Philadelphia Flyers defeated the Boston Bruins in the sixth and final game of the Stanley Cup Finals. The score was 1-0, Philadelphia; the lone goal was scored by Rick MacLeish, number 19, at 14:48 in the first period. With this win, the Flyers became the first NHL expansion team to ever win the Stanley Cup.
Happy 50 years, Flyers.

dalton day: THE CHOICE-BETWEEN-A-HAMMER-&-A-FEATHER-POEM
if you guys haven’t read Kevin’s Players’ Tribune article yet… you should. it’s raw and it’s jarring and it’s beautiful and it’s hilarious and it’s sad. Jimmy’s loss will forever be sad. but Kevin’s using his platform to make sure it’s not in vain.
he writes: “I lost my best friend because of a drug that is destroying America. It’s not just a problem in hockey. It’s a problem everywhere. It’s a problem in Boston, West Virginia, Texas, California, everywhere. It’s a problem with doctors and lawyers and engineers. Opioid addiction has probably touched most families in America at this point, and the only way we can save people is by bringing these stories into the light.
If pills can take my brother, they can take anyone.”
sending all the love and light to the Hayes family today, on the anniversary of such a horrendous day. hope you’re resting peacefully, Jim. 💔❤️
