VOORHEES, N.J. ― Something has to change with the Flyers. After looking bulletproof during their 10-game winning streak, the Flyers have quickly lost any ground they had made up in the standings and surely watched the gap between them and the non-playoff position teams shrink thanks to a five-game slide. In an effort to shuffle…
As the Flyers prepare to take on an old rival for the second time this season, we briefly look back upon the long history of the Flyers-Devils rivalry. *** It was spring of 1982. E.T. was only weeks away from becoming one of the biggest blockbusters of all time, Ronald Reagan was in the White…
The Philadelphia Flyers won again! And over a divisional opponent, too! All is good. That’s definitely one way to pave the way for the lighter side of the game, which is exactly what Claude Giroux was acknowledging the morning after. @jachobe “who did that G” #pucktothebutt https://t.co/oNW7IELmYZ — Claude Giroux (@28CGiroux) December 22, 2016 Hahaha,…

And for it, Neuvirth…
It’s extremely exciting times for the Philadelphia Flyers’ young defensemen. Shayne Gostisbehere had a breakout rookie season. Ivan Provorov is having a similar performance. And what would you know: both, 23 and 19 years old respectively, are currently leading the Flyers in ice time. There are still some, um, faults on the Flyers’ defense. But…
Wayne Simmonds is your Philadelphia Flyers representative for the 2017 NHL All-Star Game. The NHL announced the full rosters for the game on Tuesday morning, and Simmonds will be the lone Flyer making the trip to Los Angeles at the end of the month. It will be a bit of a homecoming for Simmonds, who…
Last season, it was Brayden Schenn who received the one-game “send a message” scratching from head coach Dave Hakstol. This year, both Michael Raffl and Shayne Gostisbehere have gotten the same treatment as well. We can now add Travis Konecny to the ever-growing list. After the morning skate in San Jose today, Hakstol announced to…
