For the most part this season, Flyers games have tended to be … slogs, we’ll put it. Outside of the first month or so of the season, in which it seemed like the team managed to make 5-4 losses a habit, the Flyers have found themselves typically losing games in grating fashion, struggling to pick…
Classy Pens fans fighting after loss. #CBJvsPIT pic.twitter.com/pbsFtfouhe — Jackets in 7 (@Allouthockey) April 19, 2017 I can’t believe this. Philadelphia fans are at it again. In the video above, you can see a person who is obviously a Philadelphia fan sucker punching an unsuspecting Columbus Blue Jackets fan in the mouth, and then walking…
It would seem Wayne Simmonds isn’t the only Flyer who wishes his dogs a happy birthday. Shayne Gostisbehere has joined his ranks in wishing his French bulldog, Pippa, a happy first birthday. She’s even all dressed up for the occasion (or Valentine’s Day, depending on which caption you roll with). Happy first birthday to my…

Morning Observations is a feature where we break down the previous night’s game with an analytical eye. #1: Players felt they just got the bounces this time Following the game, the general consensus from the Flyers’ locker room was that the team’s performance against the Avalanche was not so different from the team’s play over…
From the perspective of a Flyers fan, the general story of their No. 2 overall pick (which they got after they moved up from No. 13 in the lottery) (boy, that’s still fun to type, isn’t it!) has been considered a pretty straightforward one. In a draft that’s largely considered to have two top talents…
Back in late April, winger Oskar Lindblom’s Swedish season came to an end, and it seemed likely that an NHL contract with the Flyers would follow not long after. That time has now come, on this fine Tuesday in late May: Per GM Ron Hextall, the #Flyers have signed 2014 5th round draft pick Oskar…
The Flyers finished their weekend back-to-back tonight with a 6-2 thumping of the Pittsburgh Penguins. Let’s talk about it! SO THE FLYERS ACTUALLY PLAYED WELL, HUH? They did! By basically any measure — goals, shots, good ol’ watching the game — the Flyers thoroughly controlled this game basically from the moment Matt Cullen opened the…
This season has been pretty dramatic for the Philadelphia Flyers, and that’s just on the ice. Let’s talk about off the ice. Specifically, let’s talk about this. Sister of #Flyers D Radko Gudas is pregnant. Father is gonna be #Flyers goalie Michal Neuvirth. Congrats. #AllInTheFamily — Roman Jedlicka (@jedli) February 23, 2017 Whoa, okay. Michal…
Sure, the Flyers would beat one of the best teams in hockey this year, in said team’s building, in a season where they’ve routinely been terrible on the road, and in the middle of a brutal stretch of games for the team, two days after a pretty terrible contest against a much worse Winnipeg team….
