When the Philadelphia Flyers beat the St. Louis Blues 4-2, Claude Giroux had a hand in three of the four goals, including the game winner. He just added to an already impressive total. Giroux has 27 points this season. The Flyers have scored 60 goals. Giroux has, therefore, been responsible for 45% of the Flyers’…
*The Flyers were in Dallas Friday and they did…well, about as well as you’d expect them to do against a team as good as the Stars. RECAP! *Kurt brings us ten things we learned from the loss, which might’ve seemed close but really wasn’t close at all. [BSH] *Sean Couturier had a particularly bad night,…
Morning Observations is a new feature, where we break down the previous night’s game with an analytical eye. After largely playing good hockey over the past three or so weeks, after a fairly strong performance the previous night in St. Louis, I would be willing to guess that Flyers fans were as interested to see…
The number three pops up a lot. It’s everywhere in both math and various world religions. You have the rule of threes. Then there’s sports, where a hat trick is three goals, or the NHL’s new three-on-three overtime. And with three-on-three overtime, a lot of records are being broken. The idea was to have more…
Make that two shutouts for Steve Mason this season. In his first one, back on Nov. 28 against the New York Rangers, he stopped 24 shots: a modest number, but not necessarily eye-popping or game-stealing. But then there was his effort against the Canucks last night, in which he stopped all 36 pucks Vancouver sent…

What better is Bernie Parent known for than being one of the best goaltenders the Philadelphia Flyers have ever had? That makes his Philadelphia origin story, as told via the Players’ Tribune, all the more awesome: In 1967, I was coming off my second season with the Bruins. There were only six teams then. It…
*The Vancouver Canucks are in town tonight. Puck drops at 7PM. Maybe we win this one in regulation? Get a little crazy? *Charlie gives us ten things to learn from Tuesday’s overtime win against the Hurricanes. [BSH] *A look at the numbers from the ‘Canes game reveals a dominant performance by the Flyers‘ top six….
*Tonight’s game against the Blues will be the Flyers‘ last before the holiday break, so enjoy it, kids. Here are Dave Hakstol and his players speaking to the media about tonight’s game after weekend practice. [Flyers] *The Flyers tried really hard Saturday night against the Blue Jackets but came up short in the dumb stupid…
Morning Observations is a new feature, where we break down the previous night’s game with an analytical eye. This was about as evenly matched of a contest as the NHL can provide. The Flyers were ever so slightly the better team at even strength (they led 48-43 in total shot attempts, 23-21 in shots on…
