Eric Goldstein

I have over 10 years of experience covering the Philadelphia Flyers for The South Jersey Times/nj.com and the Philadelphia Metro. Throughout the past decade, I have covered regular season, playoff, and outdoor games, and I have interviewed the best players in the NHL to guys on the fourth line and front office personnel. My coverage includes a balanced, insightful, and objective perspective, and my stories range from being analytical, opinionated, and even a little fun.
