I missed this game unfortunately.
If there weren't such an issue with the team sucking so badly, and that due to the long term issues with goonishness, I might feel differently, but frankly I kind of hope the Flyers really really push the "olde tymey Flyer Hockey" mantra to its utmost this season just so our owner has to finally face up to the fact that it worked twice in 40 years and now should be put on the shelf for awhile.
I'm not a fan of following the latest trend, but at this point its safe to say speed and skill win championships. Some grit helps, perhaps even some feistiness, but outright goonery simply doesn't win anymore and hasn't for some time.
