On Thursday, the Flyers won their 999th home game, which means that this afternoon against the Devls, they’ll be going for win #1,000 in Philadelphia. If they do win, they’ll become the first expansion team to win a thousand home games.
It certainly sets up well for the Flyers to set the mark this afternoon. The Orange and Black hold the NHL’s best record and are hosting the NHL worst team overall and worst road team in the New Jersey Devils.
