One reason the Flyers could very well return to the playoffs lies in just what their division rivals did this offseason, or what they didn’t do in the Rangers’ case. The Rangers’ run of seven-straight playoff appearances ended with the Blueshirts bottoming out in dead last in the Metropolitan last season. With their window basically…
There’s been a lot of vitriol – maybe apathy, even more so – toward the Flyers this year, so I wanted to take some time to focus on a positive so far this season. When the Flyers have (inevitably) started out slow over the past four seasons, we as fans have generally turned to the…
The Flyers lose another game which they could have won with better goaltending and better defense, so in other words, just like their other losses. Let’s talk about it.

New week, new mascot, new games. This is normally where we give a bit of a breakdown of the game action, do a bit of initial reaction, but honestly, we’re still stunned. The Flyers got beat up on for two periods and then nearly staged an unreal comeback. Injured players are back from the dead….

Steve and Craig talk about (surprise) Dave Hakstol, as well as giving him credit for some things and questioning the right approach to developing prospects. The two also discuss how they feel about Ron Hextall at the moment, Sheldon Keefe, and German Rubtsov. The guys also discuss candy, Wing Bowl, and rats on Steve’s street….

We are officially one week away from hockey that counts, folks! A week from today the Flyers will open the 2018-19 season in Sin City with a date with the Stanley Cup runner-up Golden Knights. But first, the Flyers close out the home slate of their preseason tonight against the Rangers before closing out the…
The Philadelphia Flyers dropped a preseason game at the Wells Fargo Center to what amounted to the Boston Bruins B-team, but results aren’t all that important this time of year. However, what was concerning was Brian Elliott continuing not to look 100%, Philippe Myers turning the puck over leading to a goal, which could mean…
