Philadelphia Flyers
It was another positive visit to training camp yesterday. The Flyers' organization has always treated me with respect and decency. It is rightfully recognized as one of the best in the city and in all of sports.
The assembled roster for this 2013 half-year is good. Time will tell if this team can have in-season player development among the "youngsters", withstand injuries and also beat better competition during the first 48 and expected subsequent spring session.
Game day, today against the Pittsburgh Penguins, looks to be a nice iced treat.
The members of the Philadelphia media are only seen through their words and media appearances. Behind the scenes, they are a solid collective group of hard-working, talented people. Much as in any profession, their efforts generally go unnoticed (or are not fully appreciated) by the general public.
Working in the media - be it on a FT, PT, or freelance basis, is not an easy endeavor. Travel, long hours, pressured deadlines, etc. are all accomplished by those people who can meet the challenge.
