Wayne Simmonds has 27 points since December 17th. That is fourth best in the NHL behind teammate Claude Giroux (29), Kyle Okposo (29) and Sidney Crosby (28). His determination has been outstanding this season. "You know you're going to get the same thing from him every night," linemate Brayden Schenn said. "He's going to be up and down the wall. He wins his battles. He's going to be strong in front. He sees the ice well. He's been extra determined. I think he's one of the best net-front guys in the league. He's strong on the power play and dangerous in front of the net." Simmonds is owned in 75 percent of Yahoo! pools so if he is available in yours, grab him.

The Philadelphia Flyers' power play has been rather inept and so home fans constantly urge their favorite players to stop passing in a circle and shoot put the puck on net. "They always want you to shoot," Wayne Simmonds said. "But it's almost like they don't see the guy standing there in front of you, ready to block the shot. We're not stupid." The Flyers are a staggering 11-for-88 (12.5 percent) with the man advantage in Philly. That ranks them 27th in the NHL. They are a different animal on the road, having scored at least one power-play goal in four straight games away from home. Overall, they are 23-for-94 (24.5 percent) on the road, good for fifth in the NHL. "Sometimes, it's just a matter of overcomplicating things and trying to make the extra fancy play," Luke Schenn surmised, even though he's not a member of the Flyers power play. "Sometimes, it goes to every player, even 5-on-5 when you're at home, you try to put on that extra show for the hometown crowd. It's obviously not as successful."
