Flyers place Ed Snider's initials behind each net

Monday night will be an emotional one at Wells Fargo Center as the Philadelphia Flyers will honor late owner Ed Snider, who passed away last Monday, prior to Game 3 against the Washington Capitals.

With Snider's initials - E.M.S. (born Edward Malcolm) - already featuring on a commemorative patch on the Flyers' playoff jerseys, it was revealed Monday the initials will also be marked behind each net.

The team also placed a large banner outside the arena celebrating the man who owned the Flyers since they joined the NHL in 1967.
