Another day, another game. The Flyers are back at it this Sunday evening in New York City, where they’ve traveled to take on the god-damned Rangers at MSG. Yesterday was a frustrating one against Tampa Bay, in which the Flyers probably deserved a whole lot better in the offensive end of the ice, but simply…
There’s no other way to put it: the Philadelphia Flyers dominated the Montreal Canadiens tonight, and it was a whole lot of fun. They beat the Habs 3-1, their 10th straight win at home, all in regulation. It’s the first time they’ve done that since the 1984-85 season. It was a bit closer in the…
You probably watched the first three minutes of tonight’s game. That’s when, with the score 2-0 in favor of New York, just about everybody flipped over to the Golden Globes on NBC, or Anchorman on TBS, or Beaver Brothers on Animal Planet. Any of these options were better than watching the Flyers attempt to play…
So I got bored this weekend and was trying to think of something cool to put on the site this week. I decided it had been a while since I put my mad MS Paint skills to good use (especially since the diagram in last week’s post about Claude Giroux seemed to go over so…
The midterm draft rankings from NHL Central Scouting are out for 2014, and a Philly-area kid is listed as the top American-born skater. Sarnia Sting defenseman Anthony DeAngelo, as you could perhaps deduce from the Italian name, has South Philadelphia roots. He was raised in the South Jersey burb of Sewell, and he played his…
Hopes were high entering this weekend’s set of games vs. Tampa Bay and the New York Rangers. The Flyers had catapulted up in the standings after a 5-1 western road trip and a decisive win against a playoff-caliber Montreal Canadiens team, and the general feeling was that the Flyers would take two tough tests from…
Tonight, the Flyers look to snap a two game losing streak and regain their step. Luckily, they’re facing just the team to get them back in the win column. After a smashingly successful road trip, the Flyers have been far from perfect lately. Just this past week we saw the Tampa Bay Lightning ruin their…
Let’s face it — we all thought tonight’s win was a gimme, but after Buffalo scored some key goals, we were shaking in our boots. Fortunately, Buffalo decided to be Buffalo and blew the game at the very last moment to give the Flyers a much needed win. Cody Hodgson got the scoring going fairly…
The past week or so has been kind of underwhelming for the Flyers, with two rough losses over the weekend and a game on Tuesday that the Flyers slept through half of before waking up and realizing they were playing the worst team in the NHL. Hopefully, they’re in line for a bit better of…
Just a few short months ago, Braydon Coburn’s Philadelphia Flyers career was at a crossroads. At the start of the lockout-shortened 2013 season, Coburn was assigned the role of No. 1 defenseman on the depth chart, essentially by default. After all, Chris Pronger’s career-ending injury had created a void, the team had failed in its…
