YWT #10- Philadelphia Flyers Defensive Woes<\/h2>\n

After a stretch that included winning ten out of eleven games, the Philadelphia Flyers<\/a> came back to earth this week, losing three straight. All three matchups were in the conference, and the Flyers failed to get a point in two of the three contests. The point they did get came in Saturday\u2019s 7-6 shootout loss to the East-leading Tampa Bay Lightning<\/a>. Bookended by 4-1 losses to both the Carolina Hurricanes<\/a> and Florida Panthers<\/a>, Saturday\u2019s game was a slugfest, with the Flyers holding a two-goal lead deep into the game.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to this week\u2019s games, the Flyers face some tough competition, including a huge matchup with division rival Pittsburgh<\/a> on Wednesday night, followed by an overnight trip to face the Boston Bruins<\/a> in Beantown on Thursday.<\/p>\n

On this week\u2019s You Would Think, the guys talk about the disappointment from the recent three-game skid, look forward to the upcoming slate of games, briefly hit some Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> news and, as always, discuss the Sixers<\/a> in Seven or Six Seconds.<\/p>\n
