I am a 2012 West Chester University graduate and a sports producer for Philly.com/sports. I have been blogging about hockey for about two years, and have been on broadstreetbuzz for about a year. I am also a Flyers contributor on rantsports.com. I live and breathe for hockey and the guys in the black and orange. Hockey just makes sense to me, and there is nothing more comforting to me than the sound of skates cutting through ice and sticks lobbing pucks into the back of a net.
