I broke down everything you need to know about Ben Simmons situation and why I think the personal problem he's having is about Joel Embiid. I covered today why they lost against Boston 135-87 Tuesday night. Milwaukee Bucks plays the Sixers tonight at 7:00. For the Philadelphia Flyers, Claude Giroux is the best option to help this club get back a heavy load and Colorado is one of the teams Giroux is interested in going to. Winger Alex Newhook is a player who has the talent to be on the top six lines but is put on the third line due to being in the NHL not that long and Colorado wanted to be patient with their prospects. In my opinion, he doesn't deserve to be on the third line and that is why Philadelphia is a better option for Newhook to succeed on the top lines due to the lack of talent in the Flyers organization. When he played for Boston College was rushing into the offensive zone to grab the puck where he had three defenders on him and he used his right skate to get the puck over to his left side to create open space for him to make a spectacular accurate shot under the left goalie's skate for a wide-open goal. That was a sick deke move with the puck. The Flyers had trouble clearing the zone against Pittsburgh Tuesday night which resulted in a 5-4 loss in overtime. Winger Isaac Radcliffe was playing excellent defense and it showed when he shut down Kris Letang. His wingspan with the stick is just unreal and that is why center Morgan Frost isn't better than him. Tonight the Flyers will play the Capitals at 7:00. The line to watch out for are forwards, Carl Hagelin, Garnet Hathaway, and defenseman Nick Jensen in the offensive zone. They will have double setups before making a slick move to one of them for a goal. #flyers68
