*Schedule’s out! [Flyers] *And today is awards day, AKA the day Ghost loses the Calder to an old ass man. [Sportsnet] *The big trophy of the night is of course the Hart; let’s take a guess at which of these detestable jerks will win it! [Sportsnet] *The draft is just a couple of days away…
Unlike last season when the Philadelphia Flyers were able to take advantage of a high pick in the NHL Draft (seventh overall) to nab top defenseman prospect Ivan Provorov, the 2015-16 season brought a better on-ice result for the team and in turn, a later first round draft pick. But even at the 18th selection…
Ah, the off-season: where a professional athlete’s main job is to make sure they stay in shape. (And also, preferably, not get injured. That would be for the best as well.) Well, it looks like we know where at least four members of the Philadelphia Flyers are spending their off-season, at least for now. Claude…
Naturally, hockey players have interests outside of hockey. It’s difficult to eat, breathe, and sleep just one thing; especially when that one thing is, ultimately, your job. Sure, it’s fun – but people tend to need more. Something else Michael Del Zotto is interested in? The saxophone – which, now that his wrist has healed,…

*Well we were due for a big stinker and boy oh boy did the Flyers deliver one last night! RECAP. *Brian Elliott has been the main driver behind the Flyers’ recent run of good hockey and it’s time we all acknowledged that. Despite last night’s performance. [BSH] *And as weird as the goalie situation has…
*It’s draft week! Yes, we’ll celebrate for the whole week because it is June and life is empty. As we eagerly await Friday’s festivities, read up on the unsung heroes of draft day. [Flyers] *The history of the 18th draft pick. The Flyers pick at 18 did you know that?! [CSN Philly] *You wonderful folks…
BUFFALO — With the 52nd pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, the Philadelphia Flyers have selected forward Wade Allison of the Tri-City Americans in the USHL.
