That's not to say though that two...

Broad Street Needs More Bullies?

August 11th, 2009 Joke all you want, but the Philadelphia Flyers are building something.

Whatever It Takes - Flyers' Prospect Patrick Maroon

Whatever It Takes - Flyers' Prospect Patrick Maroon

May 11th, 2009 It's hard to imagine a professional prospect that doesn't have at least a stub on Wikipedia. That may be the story of Patrick Maroon's life though as a big power forward out of St. Louis, Missouri with the hands of a future highlight reel NHLer.
