Eastern Quarterfinals, Game 4 — Flyers lead series, 3-1[Complete Coverage] – [Pittsburgh Reaction] – [Discussion Thread][Event Summary] – [PBP Log] – [TOI Log] – [Faceoff Report][Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Shot Differential] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] I’m honestly not sure what that was. It wasn’t hockey. Has this been hockey this whole series? Doubtful. The…
Zac Rinaldo was really dumb on Wednesday night. His attack on Zbynek Michalek late in the second period was inexcusable, and as our friends Seth Rorabaugh of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette points out, it’s not even the first time this month Zac has hit Michalek in a dangerous fashion. The first hit back on April 7…
Yet again, the Philadelphia Flyers season has come to an unfortunate end. It’s 37 years and counting since our last parade down Broad Street, but that doesn’t mean this year was a complete failure.

PHILADELPHIA — It’s a lot more fun when the Flyers fail to show up for the first period and then dominate the rest of the game. It was the exact opposite tonight. They lost the game because of it. They lost really badly, too, 4-1. After a first period in which they carried a 1-0…
We’ve joked about how the Stanley Cup will find its way to the Jersey Shore this summer, notably Sea Isle City, where Jeff Carter still takes residence for much of the offseason. Mike Richards has been known to frequent the beaches, boards and shore towns of South Jersey as well, and John Stevens keeps a…
PITTSBURGH — The James van Riemsdyk trade rumors have finally come to fruition. The Flyers have traded JvR to the Toronto Maple Leafs for defenseman Luke Schenn. Straight up. Wow. We’ll have to digest this one for a while, but the Flyers’ interest in Schenn has been well-noted over the last several years. Of course,…

As basically everyone else, Kimmo Timonen expected the first round playoff series against the Penguins to be tough, so after three hard fought games, he’s not too surprised. “All three games have been tough, I guess it’s playoff hockey. Now we rest a couple days and go at it again.” Timonen himself fought in Game…
