Alright — I’ll admit, I went into this game with low expectations all-around, just as I’m guessing most of us did. On the one hand, the Flyers went into tonight not having scored a goal in seven-plus periods of hockey and were coming off of one of their worst games of the season. On the…
Four different Flyers scored and Brian Elliott made 29 saves on 30 shots as the Flyers downed the Islanders, 4-1, on Sunday afternoon on Long Island. Travis Konecny, Travis Sanheim, Scott Laughton, and Sean Couturier all scored for the Flyers, who picked up two more big points in their quest for the Stanley Cup Playoffs….
Why did the Philadelphia Flyers have one of their best performances of the season in a game against the division-leading New York Islanders without Jakub Voracek and Nolan Patrick? Because sports, that’s why. Brian Elliott had a great game while Travis Konecny, Travis Sanheim, and Sean Couturier remained stuck in their scoring ways. Considering how…
The Flyers went into the Nassau Coliseum yesterday afternoon and brought it to the division leading New York Islanders. They’re now just five points out of a playoff spot with a huge stretch of games beginning, let’s talk about the impressive victory. 1. Holy shot quality, batman Getting blown out in overall shot attempts fazed…
You have to credit the Philadelphia Flyers. No matter how poor the overall roster, they always find ways to turn games against their biggest rival into must-see-TV. Tonight’s game had it all for Flyers fans – end-to-end action, tons of fights, unexpected offensive contributors, and an overtime victory courtesy of Claude Giroux. The team was…
God, the Flyers are bad. We’ve known this all season, really, but things are really exacerbated when they play against fast, skilled teams like the New York Islanders. And thus, in their last game ever at Nassau Coliseum, the Flyers were rolled by the first-place Islanders 7-4 in an MLK Day matinee. Let’s just get…
We’re going to get called “soft” and other terrible things for writing this by people who love the fact that Zac Rinaldo injured one of those hated Pittsburgh Penguins last night, and love the fact that he gloated about it afterward. But this shit is embarrassing. (please excuse the background noise in that Vine) I…
We’ve said our piece about what Zac Rinaldo did last night — and really, it’s more of an indictment of his career than it is on that one specific hit he put on Kris Letang. Rinaldo hurts the Flyers and is an embarrassment to the team, and it’s a shame that he’s still in orange…
The Phantoms will take on the Hershey Bears tonight for the second time this week as Lehigh Valley battles for another important two points over a tough divisional rival. Sunday the Phantoms battled Hershey for the sixth time this season, where the Phantoms could have taken top-billing in the division from the Bears, but in…
Zac Rinaldo’s hearing with the NHL’s department of player safety will be Monday afternoon — the All-Star Break is likely delaying the proceedings here — at 12:30 p.m. ET. Rinaldo has been offered an in-person hearing at the league offices in New York City, which the NHL must do if they wish to levy a…
