Nick Seeler called the Xfinity Mobile Arena the “craziest building” he’s ever played in after the Flyers’ 5-2 home win over the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 3 of their 2026 first-round playoff series.
This was the Flyers’ first home playoff game in 8 years (since 2018), and the atmosphere was electric. The crowd was loud, energetic, and fully engaged, especially after a big second-period scrum and goals from Trevor Zegras, Rasmus Ristolainen, and Seeler himself that shifted momentum.
“That was the craziest building I’ve ever played in. The fans were fantastic and they brought it tonight… I know they will [again] Saturday night, so it’ll be fun.” – Nick Seeler said in his post-game presser
He also added variations like: “It was amazing. They were amazing. That was the craziest building I’ve ever played in. They brought it.”
Seeler, a Minnesota native who has played for the Minnesota Wild, Chicago Blackhawks, and now the Flyers, was clearly hyped by the return of playoff intensity in Philly after such a long drought. The building hadn’t hosted a postseason game since the 2018 Penguins series, so the fans made it count with a sea of orange and nonstop energy.
