The dominoes are beginning to fall.
After the Dallas Stars and Detroit Red Wings made deals earlier in the day - appearing to sell off assets - Philadelphia Flyers general manager Ron Hextall stated the Flyers will not be buying at the deadline, according to Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The confirmation comes as the Flyers slip in the standings, sitting five points out from the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.
The Flyers have certainly faltered since going on a 10-game winning streak through November and December. In their last 11 games, they have just three victories.
With three of their next four games coming against the Pittsburgh Penguins, Florida Panthers, and the Washington Capitals, things might get worse before they get better for the team.
