The Ottawa Senators couldn’t help us out last night, as they fell to the New York Rangers in Game 6 of their Eastern Conference Quarterfinal series. That result pushes that series to a Game 7 on Thursday night, and thus we’ll have to wait at least that long before learning the Flyers‘ second round fate….
The Flyers are making an announcement today. We didn’t know what that announcement was. Now, we know — and no, it’s not all that major. Not necessarily minor, but not necessarily major either. The team will drop SportsRadio WIP as their radio partner after the current playoff season, switching to 97.5 The Fanatic for the…
This week, SB Nation will unveil its winners for seven different NHL awards. Bloggers from across our hockey network have voted on the awards, and today we begin with the Vezina Trophy, handed out each year to the NHL’s top goalie. I think this is the part where we’re supposed to lead this Vezina Trophy-related…
I’m not going to hold my breath when it comes to a potential suspension for James Neal or Arron Asham. It’s become clear that Brendan Shanahan has a set a clearly broken precedent: No injury, no suspension, regardless of reckless intent.

C-O-U-T-U-R-I-E-R Not Coutrier. Not Cotourier. Not Coturier. Not Couturiere (Ben). Not Cutourier. Not Couturie. Not Courtier. Not Courturier (Geoff)….
As we learned Thursday night, the Flyers and Matt Carle may divorce on Sunday. Without him, the Flyers have a serious hole on defense, as Carle eats more minutes than anybody on the team. So what are the options beyond to fill that void should he leave? Ryan Suter, of course. He’s the prize of…
The recently-completed Eastern Conference Quarterfinal series between the Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins was phenomenal for a million different reasons. The Flyers advanced, they scored a lot of goals, and despite a little scare, the series was actually completed in pretty convincing fashion. The other thing that made this series great was just how GIFable…
That pipe dream you had about Matt Carle signing for less than market value in Philadelphia? That thought you had about the Flyers and Carle already having an agreement in place? They were just waiting til July 1! He wants to be here. He really does! Yeah, not happening. According to TSN’s Pierre LeBrun, speaking…
