What is already more than a trend, the Flyers added yet another tough guy to their team. Today, the team traded defensive prospect Michael Ratchuk to the Columbus Blue Jackets for right wing Stefan Legein. Legein was a second round pick (37th overall) in 2007 after back to back 100 PIM seasons in the OHL….
We’ve been talking about t-shirts around here for a while now, and with a ton of help, we’ve been able to get the Broad Street Hockey Store off the ground. Opening today with six different t-shirt options, the BSH Store is a collaborative effort between us and Kreider Designs, the artistic talent between the designs…
[Lightning vs Flyers coverage] [Lightning vs Flyers boxscore] [Raw Charge] For the second time in two games, the Flyers netted six goals. If they can keep scoring six every game, I have a hunch it could lead to a lot more wins. Some scattered thoughts on this game: He hasn’t gotten a lot of credit,…
[Recap] – [Boxscore] – [Complete Coverage] – [BOS Reaction] Receiving goals from Chris Pronger, Darroll Powe, and Arron Asham should always be a luxury. Having Ole-Kristian Tollefsen lead the team in points is just unusual. With two assists and a fight, Tollefsen was a most unlikely player of the game selection by the CSN broadcast….

The story has been beaten to death over the last 72 hours or so. Ray Emery will face off against his old team, the Ottawa Senators, this evening at the Wachovia Center. But let’s clarify a few things. First off, half of the team that Emery played with during his Ottawa tenure, which lasted from…
[Recap] – [Boxscore] – [Complete Coverage] – [PIT Coverage] In a game that seemingly didn’t go well from the start, the Philadelphia Flyers dropped a 5-4 decision to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Just 48 seconds in and already on the penalty kill, Evgeni Malkin foreshadowed a huge night by putting the puck through a screen and…
[Recap] – [Boxscore] – [Complete Coverage] – [BUF Reaction] If that game could be described in one word, frustrating would be my choice. The Flyers had plenty of chances, but just couldn’t bury them. Ryan Miller made 29 saves on 31 shots and the Sabres scored two power play goals, enough to pull out the…
One of the biggest surprises early on in this nascent NHL campaign is the Los Angeles Kings, who have stunned many by racing out to a 13-7-2 start that has them in fourth place in the Western Conference. And while most Flyers fans don’t know (or care) a whole lot about the Kings, there’s a…
