It’s Black Friday, and why should you go wait in those ridiculous lines today? Or maybe you already have waited in those lines and you got all kinds of cool stuff, but now you want more. We have more for you. We’re proud to unveil eight new tshirt designs today, all created by our own…
Erik Gustafsson was a plus-6 on Saturday night, and predictably, that made a lot of people freak out about his status with the Philadelphia Flyers and his chances of sticking with the club. Gustafsson is hurt and not on the Florida trip with the team right now, and certainly, the injury complicates things a bit….
PHILADELPHIA — Erik Gustafsson played — see, this is the part where I’d put down how many minutes he played tonight, but they don’t keep ice time in the AHL. Let’s try that again. Erik Gustafsson played hockey tonight for the Adirondack Phantoms. They beat the Hershey Bears in a magnificent hockey game, 4-3. Shane…
Let’s try something new. Instead of using statistics to dispute narratives after they have been written, let’s see if we can use statistics to predict which narratives will soon be written. After the jump, you’ll find a list of articles that may appear sometime this year as people try to assign significance to simple regression….
If you missed it the other night, HBO ran a 15-minute preview of their upcoming series Flyers/Rangers 24/7: Road To The NHL Winter Classic, and in that preview, Jody Shelley said of former teammate Brandon Dubinsky: “Brandon Dubinsky plays like a little weasel.

It’s definitely borderline, probably from behind a bit, but there’s some gray area there to be sure. What’s not gray is Evgeni Malkin’s attempted decapitation of Claude…
PHILADELPHIA — It took way too long for the Flyers, the NHL and Reebok to unveil their Winter Classic 2012 jersey design, and maybe that’s why we’re sort of underwhelmed with the whole thing. After a number of leaks and countless rumors, the result of waiting so long to make things official, the excitement for…
The Carolina Hurricanes announced at 12 p.m. ET today that they have claimed Andreas Nodl off waivers from the Philadelphia Flyers. Paul Holmgren said yesterday that placing Nodl on waivers was to “gauge interest” in him around the league. Well, there’s your interest. The Flyers just lost a player for absolutely nothing, and it’s kind…
We’re almost halfway through the Philadelphia Flyers 2011-12 season, and I think it might be safe to say that the team is sitting in much better of a position than anybody thought they would be. That’s not an indictment on the team that Paul Holmgren put together this offseason, but I think that most people…
The Flyers didn’t have a morning skate this morning, so we weren’t graced with the presence of nine people tweeting this four hours ago, but the team just announced that Ben Holmstrom has been returned to the Adirondack Phantoms. That likely means that Danny Briere is ready to go for this evening’s game against the…
