This week, as part of our ongoing Ask A Flyer series, we’ll be taking questions for Flyers forward Dan Carcillo. He’s controversial. He’s lovable. He’s hate-able. His mustache is gone. He’s Dan Carcillo, and you know you want to ask him something. Submit your questions in the comments below and we’ll make sure the best…
A lot of people, both in Philadelphia and nationally, watched hockey on Tuesday night. So much so that Versus broke records for the game, which saw the Flyers snap the Penguins 12-game winning streak. From a Versus press release: VERSUS averaged 750,000 viewers for the Pittsburgh Penguins/Philadelphia Flyers telecast on Tuesday, December 14, making it…
[Boxscore] – [Wire Recap] – [SBN Game Page] – [Post-Game Quotes] – [Buffalo Reaction] [Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] PHILADELPHIA — Get it… stab the Sabres…. okay, so that was weak, but the Flyers were the exact opposite of that tonight as they rolled over the Buffalo Sabres,…

When the New York Rangers signed enforcer Derek Boogaard on July 1 to a “ludicrous” contract, a lot of fans were of the opinion that the Flyers were the ones who forced their rivals into that decision. After all, the Flyers had just signed a tough guy of their own that same day in former…
Over the next few Fridays, we’ll be talking about different ways to “Enhance The Fan Experience” as part of a SB Nation series sponsored by Samsung.

Claude Giroux hasn’t looked right lately. Maybe it’s just a result of the entire offense going through a sluggish patch, but watching him lately, I’m convinced that it’s something more. He just doesn’t have that same flair to his game. He’s not as flashy. Most games lately, he’s been absolutely invisible, and that’s about as…
