Philalephia Flyers fans could learn a disapointing news tonight

However, and until now, they still have a chance to make it mathematically. But it could change as soon as tonight. If the Washington Capitals win in any fashion against the Carolina Hurricanes, the Philadelphia Flyers and the New Jersey Devils will be eliminated from playoff contention.

It's not a big surprise, of course. But it shows how difficult this season was. The Flyers could be eliminated from playoff contention despite the fact that there is still 14 games left to the season.

The focus right now is to play the young players and establish a new culture around the team.
