Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost returned back to the Wells Fargo Center, for a pit stop so to speak. To return as the visiting team, rather than the home team.
“It’s been good,” Farabee said before the game. “I saw a bunch of the guys yesterday, went to dinner. It’s always nice seeing the guys. The group that I played in Philly with was a really special team. A lot of good friends, good to see them.”
Farabee also said that both he and Frost live together in an apartment, and they now drive a truck. They are both settled into Calgary, and both speak highly about their current teammates. Both Frost and Farabee credit their current teammates with helping them transition in Calgary.
“Danny B grabbed me real quick, and said we’re moving you and Morgan to Calgary,” Farabee said of how he learned of being traded to Calgary. “Definitely sucked cuz we had to fly out the next day, so we didn’t get much time to say goodbye. A bunch of us went to Tips after and had a few drinks, talked about memories.”
Farabee was very candid, and just really happy to be back at the Wells Fargo Center. He said that one of his most fondest memories of his time in Philadelphia was Claude Giroux’s 1,000th game.
He said he has a photo of the team in a frame, and Farabee also said that was the best crowd he ever played in front of.
“My main goal the whole night was just to have fun with it,” Frost said after the game. “No matter what the outcome was. Faceoffs… lining up against some of the guys was weird.”
Frost called some of the players on the Flyers, some of his best friends. Their friendship will not end, just because he’s a Calgary Flame, rather it’s everlasting, “They did so much for me and they were great for me,” Frost said.
