[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] Here’s the deal, kiddies. All other bloglords are otherwise occupied at the moment. I, myself am headed off to a showing of the Muppets. So this was written as a stop-gap to hold you guys over until Travis can clean it up and…
The Philadelphia Flyers are boarding a train to Washington D.C. this afternoon. Claude Giroux won’t be with them. After taking that knee to the head from Wayne Simmonds on Saturday night, Giroux didn’t practice and will miss Tuesday night’s game at Verizon Center. Paul Holmgren announced the news after practice today. Sucks. We’re all fearing…
[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] The Panthers have secretly been not awful this year, which most of you probably realized for the first time during this game. But what you may not realize even now is that the Flyers have secretly been awesome. For a team that no…
NHL realignment is here, as is a new playoff system, and there are going to be a lot of changes to deal with come next season. We don’t yet know the name of our new division/conference, but for now, we’re just calling it the Patrick. We’ll just force it on the league. So let’s answer…

We published an Eric T. joint back in July, where our esteemed colleague detailed how every little decision the Flyers make can impact them in a very large way. It’s the butterfly effect, right? Well, this isn’t exactly the same thing, but it’s along those same lines. It’s more of a domino effect. One relatively…
Today is Festivus, the holiday created by Frank Costanza out of the hatred of the commerical and religious aspects of Christmas. In keeping with the tradition, Ben, Geoff, Eric and I gathered today to celebrate the holiday. We first performed the Airing of Grievances, a long process where everybody goes around and lists the ways…
[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] The Washington Capitals are not a very good hockey team right now. In fact, they’re kind of awful (or kind of offal, if you prefer a homophone that still sort of vaguely works). This, of course, pleases me greatly. Especially when they get…
Even though he knew it would pretty much be this way, it’s been a difficult time for Sergei Bobrovsky to sit and watch while Ilya Bryzgalov has gotten the bulk of the starts this season. Tuesday night was just his 13th starting assignment in game number 41 for the Flyers. There are 51.5 million reasons…
