Flyers troll 'Walking Dead' star on Twitter after he cheers on Red Wings

Emotions are running high in the worlds of television and sports, and the two crossed paths in advance of Wednesday's huge game between the Detroit Red Wings and Philadelphia Flyers.

Steve Yuen - who plays Glenn on the wildly popular "The Walking Dead" series and who attended Kalamazoo College in Michigan - offered his support for the Wings on Twitter.

The Flyers offered a savage response that brought to mind the show's recent bone-chilling season-finale cliffhanger.

The Flyers and Red Wings, of course, are two of three teams battling it out for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, along with the Boston Bruins.
