*The NHL scheduling gods have, blissfully, given up until Thursday, when the Flyers will take on the Carolina Hurricanes in Carolina. With your old pal Shayne Gostisbehere. Should be interesting to see how the Flyers match up with the best in the East. Anyhoo, in the meantime, let’s dig a little into that win over…
One of the most integral duties that an NHL team’s General Manager (or President of Hockey Operations if that title applies) is to evaluate and react accordingly to trade proposals from other clubs, as well as formulate their own trades, aiming to draw value from whatever move has been made. In his tenure as General…
John Tortorella had a point. The amount of criticism toward Chuck Fletcher was hard to understand. Steve Coates, too. Who could have expected that amount of anger directed toward Fletcher at this weekend’s season ticket holder event? No, it isn’t because Fletcher’s job is hard, as he said last July.

An angry Tampa Bay Lightning team is a scary team, and the Philadelphia Flyers learned that the hard way Tuesday night at Amalie Arena. The Lightning entered their tilt against the Flyers fresh off their most embarrassing loss of the season — a 6-0 drubbing to the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh that extended their losing…
*The Philadelphia Flyers are, plainly, lucky that they have such a caring fan base supporting this team. We could just go watch something else after having a miserable time during the NHL trade deadline, but no, we’re thinking about it and complaining about a missed opportunity. [BSH] *John Tortorella is using the 11 forwards and…
Don’t you feel good when you know you’re right about something? Feels good. Yesterday, on his namesake show (available where ever you get your podcasts), Jeff Marek confirmed what we at Broad Street Hockey have been yelling (literally) about for years: that the problem with this team isn’t Chuck Fletcher. It isn’t Dave Scott or…
The inactivity of the Philadelphia Flyers at the NHL trade deadline has been well-covered and discussed at length, but now they appear to be kicking the can down the road.
