With a resounding 8-3 win over the Ottawa 67’s in yesterday’s Game 6 of the OHL Final, Philadelphia Flyers’ prospect Isaac Ratcliffe and the Guelph Storm have won the OHL Championship. The towering forward had a four-point performance, as he scored a pair of goals and had two assists (one primary) in the second period…
As the roster currently stands the Flyers have four defensemen that can be viewed as roster locks: Ivan Provorov, Travis Sanheim, Shayne Gostisbehere, and Radko Gudas. That is, assuming both restricted free agents, Provorov and Sanheim, sign new contracts. Samuel Morin and Robert Hagg are essentially locks as well, given that neither are waiver-exempt. Then…
The Flyers may not have a finalist for a NHL award, but at least someone has taken home a prize for their performance in the 2018-19 campaign.

Several Philadelphia Flyers are representing their countries in Slovakia during the 2019 IIHF Men’s World Championship. Though the tournament is still in the middle of the group stage (they’ve played four of seven games), it’s a decent time to check in and see just how the Flyers who made the trip are repping the Orange…

A lot of traditions have come and gone for the Flyers over the years, but one more recent one has been a banner hit. That’d be the Player of the Game Helmet, awarded to the game MVP after each Flyers win, with the previous winner choosing the next to don the retro lid. The tradition…
Last week, I took a look at Oskar Lindblom, who has been playing well with team Sweden at the IIHF World Championships.
