La Cosa Flyers

Rick Tocchet, one of the fan favorites of two separate stints with the Flyers, has been tied to a national gambling ring out of Jersey. A state trooper was also indicated as being involved....which is huge. A trooper being noted is extremely rare in anything, so this must really have some legs. Once again the stain of Italians on this great nation has struck...OK, I kid. Still, Tocchet's impending arrest IS probably going to greatly stain the NHL, as one of the guys in the ring stated that other players were involved and Tocchet is a coach for the Phoenix Coyotes. Sheesh.
