Points are lost to time and divisional opponents. Must wins become losses. Optimism becomes realism. The Flyers lose and make me sad. This is how it’s always been. This is how it will always be. This is the song of my people. Seriously, this game sucked. I don’t know if it’s worth reading this recap….
Taking a couple steps away from irrelevancy with two truly impressive performances against good teams, one of which literally sits atop the entire league, the Flyers have had just enough success to drag us kicking and screaming back into the playoff hunt. Remember when we were talking about McDavid and Eichel? Thank you, Eastern Conference….
Lehigh Valley welcomes East Division opponent Binghamton to the PPL Center tonight for the final time in the regular season after six days off since its last contest. With nearly a week off since their 5-4 overtime loss to Hartford, the Phantoms have had time to work out some “fixable mistakes” that has plagued the…
I know I’m supposed to talk about how there are no moral victories and the Flyers have zero margin for error. Nobody wants to hear about process trumping results when you’re four points out of a playoff spot. But the Flyers are playing arguably their best hockey of the 2014-2015 season and that should not…

Saturday’s game was 60 minutes of horrifyingly sloppy pond hockey. We’ve been harping on the Flyers much improved process of late, controlling the even strength chance battle and generally playing solid hockey despite some unlucky losses. Though entertaining from a fan’s perspective, this game was a departure from that process. The Flyers held their own…
ALLENTOWN— After dropping seven of his last 10 starts, we may have seen a new and improved Anthony Stolarz Saturday, as the rookie goaltender aided the Phantoms (25-22-6-1) to an important two points in their 3-2 OT win against Binghamton (22-26-6-1), and received a secondary assist on the game-winning overtime goal, for his first pro…
The Wells Fargo Center should start passing out orange rabbits’ feet to all the fans in attendance. For the umpteenth time in the last two weeks, the Flyers outplayed an inferior opponent only to come away with a loss. Outside of a mediocre first period, Philly dominated the game at even strength. In the final…
*The Calgary Flames are in town tonight! We’ll see how this Coburn-less Flyers team handles things. Preview! *So after a lot of rumor and speculation, the Coburn deal ended up being the only move the Flyers made. [TSN] *Here’s what we know about the guy the Flyers acquired in the trade, Radko Gudas. [BSH] [Courier-Post]…
The NHL trade deadline is over, and the Flyers made just two moves. But in doing so, they acquired a whole bunch of draft picks. It can be hard to keep track of everything that went down, but that’s what we’re here for. Here’s how the Flyers stack up in terms of draft picks after…
