The Philadelphia Flyers are currently on a five-game win streak after taking down the Columbus Blue Jacket 5-2 Sunday night. Two weeks ago, the Flyers went out west and lost to the Sharks. But since then, they've played some of their best hockey.

The Flyers defeated the Anaheim Ducks 6-3, LA Kings 4-2, Caroline Hurricanes 3-1, Vegas Golden Knights 4-3, and the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-2.

The Flyers last won five games in a row in the 2019-2020 season. Although it is still early in the season, the Orange and Black are second in the Metropolitan division behind the New York Rangers.

The Flyers also lead the NHL in short-handed goals with five. While the powerplay still needs tremendous improvement, Bobby Brink got a power play goal against the Blue Jackets. Travis Sanheim leads the team with 16 points, two goals, and 14 assists. Following Sanheim is Travis Konecny, who has 11 goals and four assists.

Despite the success on the ice for the team, individually Morgan Frost is still climbing an uphill battle to be on the roster. Frost was healthy-scratched last night, allowing Bobby Brink to go in. This is now Frost's eighth game scratched, and he's only played ten games this season. The big question remains what do the Flyers plan on doing with Frost. Another move the Flyers made was putting goalie Felix Sandstrom on waivers. He has yet to be claimed by another team.

The Flyers have some more Metropolitan battles coming up. They take on the Islanders on Wednesday and host the Rangers on Friday. The Islanders are 6-6-5 and in 6th place in the Metro. They were on a seven-game losing streak before beating the Calgary Flames in a 4-3 shootout win. The Flyers have two off days before the game, allowing the players to get some rest after their victorious week.

The Wells Fargo Center underwent the final phase of the arena's $400+ million transformation project. The event level where the Flyers' new locker rooms and facilities are located was a $30 million renovation. While the fans won't be able to utilize the player's locker rooms or lounges, there is something that any fan can gain access to. Although the event floor is centered around the players, there is the Shift4Club. The club is one of the top-tier courtside/ice-side clubs for an exclusive dining experience. Fans with these tickets can now enter through the marble-filled grand staircase that takes you to the mists of the newly renovated event floor.

Notably, the most memorable part about all the renovations was honoring the missed and beloved Mr. Ed Snider. When asked the CEO of Comcast Spectacor, Dan Hilferty, about the significance of Mr. Snider, he gracefully answered that he (Ed Snider) is Philadelphia.

Without question, the arena's $400+ million transformation displays an enormous amount of attention to detail. In the coaches and management-only lounge, it's a tribute to the Spectrum. The room has Spectrum green and displays pictures of different concerts and sporting events. This room, while new, holds a lot of history and memorabilia.

Arugmentivly, the Flyers' spa might be the ultimate definition of relaxation. This spa features hot tubs, cold tubs, and saunas. The purpose behind the spa was to allow the players to utilize a more luxurious spot to rewind after the games. The spa is connected to the Flyers' locker room, allowing the players accessible access to the amenities.

Overall, the importance of having state-of-the-arch locker rooms, facilities, and presence comes in perfect timing with the team's rebuild. Oddly enough, the renovations would have happened despite the group's state, and this was always the plan. The timing seemingly seems to fit, which makes it all the better.
