You’ll have two more hours of drinking before tomorrow’s Winter Classic. Just like with the Alumni Game on Saturday, the start time for the main event between the Flyers and Rangers on Monday has been pushed back from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in an attempt to avoid the hot afternoon sun that’ll bake the…
For many of us, pirated video streams are an unfortunate necessity of watching the Philadelphia Flyers play professional ice hockey, as the NHL simply doesn’t allow us the ability to pay them for the product. Maybe we don’t get cable. Maybe we can’t afford cable. Maybe we can’t get it at all. Maybe CSN and…
Not gonna editorialize here. Just going to let Kimmo Timonen speak for himself, via this transcript from the Flyers‘ PR department. Q: Was the big difference in this game the special teams? “Well obviously they got three [power play] goals, so it was huge. We were disappointed with the effort actually. The emotional level, playing…
It was a very different kind of a shootout than the 9-8 horror show between the Philadelphia Flyers and Winnipeg Jets combined for in late-October, but when all was said and done it was yet another loss for the orange-and-black. While it strayed from the formula of earlier in the year, it’s a finish the…
I didn’t see any of this game. But with a late goal by Jakub Voracek, the Flyers forced OT and lost in a shootout, which seems like an effort with which I should be pretty happy. But getting one point also solidifies the Flyers hold on fifth, which makes them more likely to face the…
[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] John Tortorella beat Peter Laviolette in the f-bomb count on HBO 24/7’s debut last week. We’re guessing Lavi is going to be evening the scales on this week’s installment. The Flyers were absolutely demolished today by the Boston Bruins, 6-0, on home ice,…
Good news! While Versus will be airing the Winter Classic Alumni Game at 1 p.m. on December 31, the game will also be picked up locally by Comcast SportsNet, and it’ll be called by Jim Jackson. Steve Coates will be at ice level. We’re thinking that this coverage might be simulcast by Versus, considering NHL…
In an attempt to not spoil it for people, I waited to review the first episode of HBO 24/7 Flyers-Rangers. And waited. And waited. And eventually, everything pretty much got written about already. But since the second episode comes tonight, I figured I should at least write something before that about some of the things…
Claude Giroux and Kimmo Timonen are among the 36 NHL veterans named to the 2012 All-Star Game today by the league. Rookies Matt Read and Sean Couturier were among the 12 rookies named to the team as well, giving the Philadelphia Flyers a total of four representatives in Ottawa. All-Star Weekend kicks off Friday, January…
In two games against the New York Rangers this season, Claude Giroux has zero points. In one game against the Rangers, Jaromir Jagr has zero points. In two games, Scott Hartnell has one point … a secondary assist on an Andrej Meszaros power play goal. If you want to understand why the Flyers haven’t been…
