The Flyers have had success in the early season, but have also now been dealt a pair of shutout losses following their 1-0 loss to Nashville on Thursday night. Pekka Rinne stopped all 28 Flyers shots he faced and Colton Sissons’ goal 3:49 into the third period held up as the game-winner to drop the…
The Corsi Report Allow me to introduce what “The Corsi Report” is going to include before diving in. I will be analyzing each of the Flyers four lines and three defense pairs on their games from a corsi perspective. Also, an evaluation of the team as a whole will be done and seeing where things…
Well folks, the Flyers have made it official. From the official site: The Philadelphia Flyers announced today they have loaned defenseman Samuel Morinto their AHL affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, according to general manager Ron Hextall.

The goalie was bad. The power play was bad. The defense was bad. Everything was bad for the Philadelphia Flyers in a 6-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night, and Bill Matz hopped on the Broad Street Hockey Facebook Live postgame show to give his thoughts on an overall disappointing effort. The Flyers…
Gathering some observations on the Flyers’ matchup against the Islanders, from the PPL Center in Allentown. 1. First period woes To start, let’s talk about the rough start that was last night’s first period in Allentown. The Flyers were out shot 5 to 13 and spent a good part of the period hemmed into their…
*Big news yesterday was no news, as the team released a statement stating that both Radko Gudas and Nolan Patrick are still day-to-day with their upper-body injuries. We’ll see how that changes ahead of Thursday’s game. *There really are plenty of injuries to go around. Big ones, little ones. Seems like enough already. [NBC Sports…
Even if it is just the preseason, it’s good to get a dominant effort from start to finish. The Flyers did just that in their 5-1 drubbing of the Bruins at the Wells Fargo Center on Thursday night. Five different players scored and the Flyers struck twice on the man-advantage to end their recent power…
