Believe it or not, we are solidly into the second half of the NHL season. Every team in the league has played at least 43 games, and the average team has played 46. Time flies when you’re having … (/gestures at this Flyers season) … whatever this is. And as of this moment (we’re not…
It’s not often there’s meaning to a game between the Philadelphia Flyers and Anaheim Ducks, but last night was one of those meetings. On top of attempting to snap a three-game slide the Orange and Black were playing in their first home contest since forward Oskar Lindblom was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma. With the team…
The Philadelphia Flyers returned to the Wells Fargo Center looking to get back on track. Prior to the game, they placed signs on seats throughout the arena with the words “i fight for Oskar”, to show support for Oskar Lindblom, who is battling Ewing’s sarcoma. Claude Giroux opened the scoring just 55 seconds into the…
It’s been a rough few days for the Philadelphia Flyers and their fans, but tonight’s emotional 4-1 victory over the visiting Anaheim Ducks is just what the team needed. Goals from Claude Giroux, David Kase, Jakub Voracek, and Sean Couturier were more than enough support for Carter Hart who denied 40 of Anaheim’s 41 shots…
That should put some butts in seats. The Philadelphia Flyers, who entered the game with one of the leagues best points-percentages on home ice (.675) added a couple more points to their total with a dominant 6-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center. Buffalo, missing Jack Eichel, put…
The Flyers got some good news before puck drop as Sabres superstar Jack Eichel would miss the festivities with an upper-body injury. He has points in 17 straight games, which I’m told is quite good. The first power play chance would go to the Sabres with Morgan Frost off for a cross checking with around…
There are a lot of positive things the Philadelphia Flyers can build off of following Tuesday’s 4-1 home win over the Anaheim Ducks. The team snapped a three-game losing streak on the road trip from Hell, Travis Konecny provided offense the club lacked during the losing streak, and for the first moment since Friday’s announcement…
They did it, gang! The Flyers came back home and after taking a moment to collect themselves, they were able to rally and pick up a handy win over the Anaheim Ducks last night to stop their losing streak in its tracks. Travis Konecny made his return to the lineup and had sort of a…
Well, that was fun! After a nice but not the tidiest win over Anaheim on Tuesday, the Flyers came out against Buffalo and decided to go ahead and give us the extremely tidy win. They showed up earlier and decided to score all of the goals which made for a pretty fun product, if we…
It’s safe to say that it hasn’t been the best few months for the NHL’s optics, and even that of ice hockey as a sport. Starting with the events leading up to the firing of Don Cherry from CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada, the normative behaviors of hockey culture have been on trial, and already,…
