This story was originally published last June, when we learned that Mark Howe would be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. We now know that yes, Howe’s number will be retired by the Flyers. It will happen tonight at Wells Fargo Center, and it should be pretty damn special. – Travis The Philadelphia Flyers…
Yeah, so that happened. In order to digest the news, Ben Rothenberg, Eric T. and myself recorded a special edition of BSH Radio without Travis. This was done at the end of a very long day for all of us, so while we try to make sense of it, we also largely try to cope…
As reported by Tim Panaccio at CSNPhilly.com, Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren was injured in a Labor Day bike accident in Avalon, N.J. He suffered a broken shoulder and broken ribs, according to the report, and is listed in stable condition at Cooper University Hospital in Camden. That’s all we know about Holmgren’s condition. The…
The Flyers may have just gotten another steal in drafted Marcel Noebels. NHL’s Central Scouting listed Noebels as the 49th best North American skater entering the draft, and the Flyers just selected him 118th overall. He had a little trouble adjusting to the WHL, but after playing in the World Junior Championships, Noebels scored 18…
Marcel Noebels is currently at the Flyers prospect camp. He isn’t only showing his skills to the Flyers at the camp, but also figuring out where to play next season. He has a contract offer literally in his hands from the German DEL league and intends to have a talk about it with GM Paul…
It’s not surprising in the slightest bit that Danny Syvret isn’t coming back to the Philadelphia Flyers, and really, he never did much of anything with the team that deserves our prolonged mourning (sorry, Ben). But as the former Flyers and Adirondack Phantoms defenseman signed a two-way contract with the St. Louis Blues organization over…
We interrupt this incredibly busy day (ha) with some news: the Flyers have signed 2011 fourth round pick Marcel Noebels to a standard three-year entry level deal. Noebels played with the Seattle Thunderbirds of the WHL last season and will apparently return to the club this season, although until recently it was possible he could…
I guess it was only a matter of time before this story was written, right? From Daily News gossip columnist (in other words, the part of the paper you line your bird cage with) Dan Gross, there’s a story today about this Flyers team ritual called the “Dry Island,” where every player on the team…
On this week’s BSH Radio, we tried talking about the Flyers for a little while. You know, it’s been a big two weeks around these parts. And after about 10 minutes of talking about all of that, we just couldn’t wait to get to all of the ridiculous questions you asked. We answered every single…
It’s free agency day, and the unrestricted madness begins at 12 p.m. What will the Flyers do? Major move? Just a middle of the road, heavy lifting third line forward? A defenseman, perhaps? Anything could really happen — we’re talking about the Philadelphia Flyers. Nothing could happen, too. But today is one of those days…
