Following last night’s win over the Colorado Avalanche, Flyers owner Ed Snider got in front of a bunch of reporters and said some things. After answering a couple of questions about the late Keith Allen and the way the Flyers are playing right now, Snider went off about the Olympics for a while. He’s not…
The Avalanche certainly didn’t give tonight’s game away, making a huge bid to try and tie the game late in the third period. But sustained pressure from the Flyers proved to be too just too much for Colorado. The game started off quite evenly matched, with shot attempts being roughly equal throughout the entire first…

Buffalo sits one point ahead of Philadelphia, and six points out of the final wild card spot…
The men’s tournament got underway yesterday with two fun games that ultimately had unsurprising end results. Today’s slate has four games on the table, including games that will see three Flyers play their first game of the tournament. Oh, and we’ll also see the first game for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
