The Sabres are in town to face the Flyers tonight, and maybe Dave Hakstol doesn’t feel threatened by them or something. Because in the midst of a three-game losing streak, I don’t know how else to explain these roster moves. R.J. Umberger: back in. Matt Read: out. Jordan Weal: in. Scott Laughton: out. No lines…
It’s been nearly impossible to find Shayne Gostisbehere merchandise lately. There were a few stores that sold t-shirts earlier in the year — Modell’s is one of them — but they’ve been out of stock more often than not thus far. Well, look! They’re here! In all sizes! It’s definitely weird to get his shirt…
The stage was certainly set for an entertaining contest when the Flyers visited the Bell Centre on Friday night. A media feeding frenzy over the Habs epic tailspin, and a very public spat between head coach Michel Therrien and star defenseman P.K. Subban had most of the spotlight on Montreal. But for Philadelphia, this game…
The Philadelphia Flyers have proven surprisingly adept at the NHL’s new 3-on-3 overtime. 4-on-3 is a different story entirely. Jakub Voracek took a hooking penalty midway through the overtime session, and the New Jersey Devils capitalized on the ensuing power play, as Adam Henrique blasted a shot past goaltender Michal Neuvirth to send the Flyers…
With last night’s game in Jersey in the books, we are officially into the final third of the 2015-16 NHL season. How time flies when you’re having fun, am I right? Anywho, the Flyers are currently on the outside of the Eastern Conference’s playoff chase, and while they’ve certainly still got a chance to sneak…
There’s something extremely fun about the Flyers playing in New Jersey, even when they lose. I think it might be that there are always something like five different raucous “Let’s Go Flyers!” chants every time there’s a game at Prudential Center. And it’s even more fun when that’s the refrain that drowns out the organ…
On March 1, national hockey federations from around the globe will announce the first 16 players who will join their teams for the 2016 World Cup of Hockey. In addition to the six nations that will send teams to the tournament — held the last two weeks of September in Toronto — we’ll also have…
It’s a rainy, miserable Tuesday … which sounds like a perfect opportunity to watch a game involving the New Jersey Devils! Good thing, because the Flyers play their final game against New Jersey tonight, up the Turnpike in lovely Newark. The two teams faced off in a boring, dull, why-yes-I-will-pay-11.50-for-another-beer-right-now game on Saturday afternoon in…
The end of February can only mean one thing for hockey fans — the NHL trade deadline is almost upon us. Always the busiest transaction day during the regular season, the trade deadline is a time for contenders to load up for their upcoming playoff runs, while teams out of the race can jettison players…
Another day, another ugly hit from Radko Gudas. And another instance in which he’ll get away with that hit without supplemental discipline. Gudas was given a match penalty for his hit on Bobby Farnham last night, which was behind the play and totally gross. Here’s the video if you missed it: It was the right…
