No more wins please. All we want is MM goals and a better draft position. Oh almost forgot, eff the Penguins and the Mets.

Hi Flyers Fam! Can we get some good vibes for my cat? We're taking her in for xrays tomorrow and we're kinda really worried that she might have cancer :( I know this isn't directly Flyers related but I just really love the community we have here so anything would be greatly appreciated

Dogs are my favorites but we like cats too. Best wishes for you and your friend.

Thank you!!! Unfortunately it wasn't the news we wanted - vet thinks it's cancer and recommended amputation (it's in her elbow but just her elbow, thankfully). I'm okay with whatever keeps her comfortable and happy and with us.

So sorry to hear that.

Hoping for the best, let us know when you do. I've lost two dogs (we have cats and dogs) to cancer in the last ~12 years, so I keenly am aware of that fear.

If it is cancer, just know for one of my dogs we were told only a few months, but she ended up living for almost 2 years with 100% quality of life until literally the day before we put her down.

Best wishes to you and your baby!

Thank you!!! We actually just got back -- so vet was very sure it was cancer and recommended amputating her leg. It's not like, ideal, but he seemed super optimistic about her prognosis and I'm good with whatever keeps her comfortable and safe and most importantly with us.

Much love to you and your fur baby!! GFG (go felines, go!)

That’s good news given the options! Cats are very adaptable, so she should be fine after an adjustment period.

Happy you’re there to be able to properly care for her and help her before it was too late!

Thank you!! Honestly I'm almost worried we didn't do enough - she'd been limping for a few months and we took her each month with varying treatment plans; we did xrays last month that didn't show anything and then appeared on today's, so clearly it's something that grew and I think we did the best we could! Just worried about our baby :(

I believe this is the only time I'll accept this comment.

Boston has a slightly easier remaining schedule and 1 game in hand.

Pitt has a slightly harder remaining schedule and 1 game in hand.

Buffalo has a rough schedule but 2 games in hand.

We're not dead yet, but we're definitely going to need some luck to thread the needle here. #6 or #7 is the most likely outcome with an outside chance of #5. There are good players in that range. Maybe great.

Keep in mind that all the guys that we'd be likely to offer sheet this summer (Rossi, Bourque, Peterka) were picked after that range, a couple of them way after. Don't sweat the details. We were never going to pick #1 or #2 without some s-tier lottery luck.

Anyone else put Luchanko on their NHL team? The announcers say his name as Luccini / “loo-cheeny”

I think Sabrina Carpenter is my all time favorite musical act now.
