Tuesday: Red Wings visit The Detroit Red Wings climbed over the Flyers in the wild card race this week, and on Tuesday night they’ll visit the Wells Fargo Center for the first time as a member of the Eastern Conference. It’s the final of three meetings between the teams. The Flyers lost the first one…
A lot can change once a player has left an organization. Our local media don’t spend much time talking about former Flyers, leaving us knowing little about those who once meant so much. That needs to change. In this spirit, and perhaps to pay a little homage, Broad Street Hockey put together a four part…
Okay, this week is tough. The Flyers face their toughest stretch of the season presently, and they’ve already lost four straight. There is no room for optimism when it comes to talking about the Philadelphia Flyers right now. Detroit Red Wings (23-18-11, 57 pts) at Philadelphia Flyers (25-22-5, 56 pts)7 p.m. | Wells Fargo Center…
Desperate to shake up a struggling roster, Flyers coach Craig Berube made the decision to add Erik Gustafsson to the lineup for last Saturday’s game against the Boston Bruins. Either Andrej Meszaros or Luke Schenn seemed to be the likely casualties. So when it was announced shortly before gametime that Meszaros would face his 21st…
PHILADELPHIA — We all needed that one. The Flyers, who have looked [insert long list of really negative adjectives here] in their last four games, made some serious adjustments late in the first period tonight and went on to crush the Detroit Red Wings, 5-0. The first 20 minutes were a little rough. Detroit hemmed…
4 – The number of times the Flyers have shutout the Detroit Red Wings. The Flyers have been playing like poop lately, so it was nice to see them add to that list last night. Before that, the last time the Flyers had shutout Detroit was March 31, 2001, when Roman Cechmanek led them to…
So the gang over at Pensburgh are promoting a really, really cool idea for the month of February: they’re hosting a pledge drive to make a donation that will benefit the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation. Via Mike Darnay: What we decided to do was to accept pledges for donations based on what happens in…
The Olympic break is finally here. Our last mailbag was a little over two weeks ago, so, with the Flyers still 17 days away from playing their next game, I decided to answer some questions about how the team has fared since the middle of January. In this week’s BSH mailbag, I took a look…
9 – the number of shorthanded goals against the Flyers have allowed this season. After last night in Anaheim, the Flyers have surrendered more shorthanded goals against than any other team in the league. The franchise record for SH goals against stands at 16, recorded way back in the 1990-91 season. The Flyers have one…
After losing to the Ducks in a game where they surprisingly didn’t play like poop, the Flyers are looking to turn things around tonight in L.A. Let’s get this out of the way — Mike Richards and Jeff Carter used to play for the Flyers and now they play for the Kings and of course…
