Was last night win against Montreal a good news or a bad news? Honestly, this team needed it. And even if they lost against the Canadiens, it would have been very improbable to see the Habs "pass" the Flyers in the standings.

Let's focus on another subject, which is Keith Yandle. He was the only player used less than 10 minutes last night (7:01 to be exact). And despite getting a very limited time on the ice, he succeeded to finish the game with a minus-2 rating.
Plus/Minus ratings are not always a good way to evaluate the performance of a player, but it is in the case of Keith Yandle. He just wasn't good. Even a Montreal beat reporter, who certainly didn't watch Yandle play often this year, took a shot at Yandle's play.
"I know that the decision to prevent Keith Yandle from reaching the 1,000 games in a row was very painful for many people. I hope he still appreciates how miraculous it is that he spent so much time without being removed from the lineup," wrote Simon-Oliver Lorange on Twitter.
Keith Yandle has the worst rating in the NHL this season with a minus-44. Will he reach minus-50?
