Re: Why the Flyers Will Hate the Blue Jackets
Yes, but not really for the reasons you stated. It will be the physicality of the Blue Jackets that drive the Flyers insane. Columbus tied Los Angeles for the most hits last season and Philly finished sixth. That's a nice battle waiting to happen. Combine that with the player history, yes it will definitely be fun to watch. I don't see any goalie rivalry at all. Umberger has nothing to "prove" to Columbus, Philly went out and got him, he's got to feel pretty good about that. Hartnell will likely want to show the Flyers management that they made a mistake getting rid of "his contract" this early though.
I'm on board with this being a budding rivalry though. Thanks for the link!
