Hockey is back, gang! We had a game last night so it really is back! The Flyers hosted the Islanders at the PPL Center in Allentown for their annual rookie game, and let me tell you, this game had EVERYTHING. A slow start for the Flyers while they were feeling things out. Getting out shot…
September’s been set abuzz. The Flyers’ rookie camp is upon us, and we’re just days away from the opening of full training camp, and this year, perhaps more so than in the past handful, the battles for spots in the opening night roster are set to be tense. There’s a lot being made of these…
It’s a whole new world for Morgan Frost. The Flyers’ second first round pick from 2017 has finally made it to the pros, and is finding himself left to navigate the crash course that is adjusting to life and play in the AHL.

The Lehigh Valley Phantoms just embarked upon their first three-in-three weekend of the season, returning with a record of 1-1-1. It began with the team dropping their third shootout decision in just eight games, on their way to a rather odd looking 4-2-4 record through their first ten contests. Of course, losing more games than…
