The Flyers and Their Beat Writers are Headed for War

The Flyers have a new locker room at their practice facility (apparently, it’s the one that was lost by Peter Laviolette) which features a glowing puck on the ceiling, an oval shape to promote unity (the Phillies’ clubhouse is like this), and wooden lockers. It’s… nice.

So nice, in fact, that beat writers waited anxiously to get a tour yesterday. But their exclusive look around the new facility was cancelled by Paul Holmgren:

I can’t tell if Panotch is joking or not. After all, we’re talking about Holmgren here– the guy who said the Dry Island story violated the “inner sanctum” that is the Flyers’ locker room.
