Flyers deny selves humiliating loss

- The Flyers looked like the Flyersing old Flyers last night, going down 3-2 after two periods in Detroit against a Red Wings squad missing three key players.

Okay, logistically, how will this pizza party happen.

- Carmelo Anthony thinks the Knicks are a "laughingstock" and naturally took it out on people trolling his Instagram page.
