Flyers Voracek sends a bold message to the Red Wings.

The biggest Flyers' fan in the world right now might be Flyers forward Jakub Voracek.

Voracek has been sidelined with an injury, but if there was any doubt he was focused on anything other than hockey, his social media presence alone would be enough to dispel that myth. Voracek has been excitedly tweeting every time the Flyers have earned themselves a big win, closing the gap on the playoffs. and closing the gap on the Detroit Red Wings who are now just three points ahead of the Flyers, and the Flyers have two games in hand.

The latest from Voracek, who will not be playing on Tuesday when the Flyers face the Red Wings, appears to be a warning to the Red Wings. Voracek believes the Flyers will catch Detroit, and furthermore he says it's Detroit that needs to worry about Philadelphia, bot the other way around.

“The way we’re playing, they’ve got to be more worried about not making the playoffs than us,” Voracek said as per the Courier-Post, “because they way we play, everybody knows how good we play right now and everybody watches the games.”

The aforementioned playoff implications already made this Tuesday's game between the Red Wings and the Flyers a must watch, and Detroit's loss to Toronto on Sunday only raised the stakes. Now Voracek has raised them even further, and a great many eyeballs will be tuning.
