This wasn’t the way the Philadelphia Flyers wanted to start the season, but there is still plenty of time to turn it around.

Philly doesn’t just sit at the bottom of the division, they sit at the bottom of the league, as there are there are seven teams yet to record a point, but the Flyers are the only team to …
