Rookie 76ers center Nerlens Noel won’t step on the Wells Fargo Center court until Christmas at the earliest as he recovers from an ACL injury, but he’s not wasting any time getting to know Philadelphia. Namely, our other sports teams and the sports teams we hate. Case in point, via CBS Philly: Noel stopped by…
Was told by source #Penguins James Neal’s injury is something similar to strained oblique. Suffered it when Pens played whiffle ball on ice. — David Todd (@DavidMTodd) October 8, 2013 Just heard from someone else that Neal indeed hurt himself playing wiffle ball. — Sean Gentille (@seangentille) October 8, 2013 … probably because he’s good…
In the first four games of the infamous 2013 NHL season, the Flyers scored five goals and won one game. In the first four games of the 2013-14 NHL season, the Flyers have scored five goals and won one game. In their fifth game of the 2013 NHL season, the Flyers scored seven goals in…
We are five games into the 2013-14 National Hockey League season. We are not supposed to be reaching the point in my recaps where we’re running out of words (not happy words) to describe the team’s play. But man, are we getting close to that territory. It’s not like the Flyers had circles skated around…
The Flyers have an extremely tough week coming up this week, beginning with a game in Detroit tonight. Afterwards, they’ll host Vancouver on Tuesday and the Penguins on Thursday. The opposite of easy. They’ll be without Vincent Lecavalier and Scott Hartnell for those three games at least. Both went down with injuries in Friday night’s…
614 regular season and playoff games after arriving in Philadelphia in the infamous Mike Richards trade, Wayne Simmonds’ time as a Flyer has come to an end. Simmonds was traded today, about three minutes before the NHL trade deadline at 3:00 p.m., to the Nashville Predators, where he’ll get a chance to play with Peter…
Just looking at the 5-2 score of Saturday’s loss to the Red Wings doesn’t really tell the full story. The Flyers played well at even strength, and all three of their defensive pairings played pretty well. Braydon Coburn and Nicklas Grossmann were the only pairing that didn’t finish with a positive Corsi percentage — or,…
There’s a great piece in The Hockey News this week on Chris Pronger, his current role with the Flyers, his health and what his future holds. Reading the whole thing is worth your time. Right now, we’re going to focus in on one quote in the piece from Paul Holmgren: “I’ll say it, Chris is…
The last time the Flyers hosted the Vancouver Canucks, they played like crap and fired John Stevens less than 24 hours later. Chances Craig Berube gets fired tonight, just three games into his tenure, are pretty slim, but there’s that similar feeling of desperation for a win as the team sits at 1-5-0 through six…
