We might not have training camp to talk about this week, but hockey still does actually exist. So does our hatred for any number of rival teams, so … well, why don’t we decide which team we, fans of the Philadelphia Flyers, hate the most? When asked, you probably have an immediate answer: the Pittsburgh…
No. 1: “Redemption Line” A BSH favorite that’s been used around these parts since the playoffs last season, “Redemption Line” is rooted in the rough seasons that Danny Briere, Scott Hartnell and Ville Leino were having last season — until, of course, they were united.

The game will be played on Saturday, January 28. You can bet on…

And in their mock draft, they have the Flyers losing goaltender Steve Mason. Here’s the full team they have going to Las Vegas in 2017-18: And here’s Silver…
This story was written by Eric T. It begins here. It continues here. This is the final portion. And the third and final scoring chance is the only goal of the game: We join this one when the board battle has just been completed. Having been beaten along the boards and knocked down by a…
MLB Advanced Media took over digital operations at the NHL back in January, which you may have seen in multiple places. NHL.com was redesigned, NHL GameCenter Live was rebranded and revamped — if perhaps not improved — as NHL.tv, and new mobile apps were launched for the league.
