The Flyers look to maintain their wild card positioning and extend their winning streak to three games when they visit the Arizona Coyotes on Saturday night. Fresh off a 5-3 win over the Canadiens on Thursday night, the Flyers find themselves in control of the first wild card spot in the Eastern Conference entering play…
Yesterday, we looked at who the candidates are to win the Barry Ashbee Trophy for the Flyers‘ best defenseman this season, which will be given out on Sunday before the team’s game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Today, we’ll do the same for the Pelle Lindbergh Memorial Trophy, which goes to the “most improved player” on…

I think we’re over-simplfying the debate around Scott Hartnell’s contract extension. Several points have been made so far in analyzing this contract, mostly that the Flyers got a great deal on this contract and that Hartnell took less money in exchange for long-term job security. “The Flyers got off cheaply.” — Sam Carchidi of the…

For the second straight day, a forward sat atop the voting, with London Knights…

The Flyers took 1-0 and 2-1 leads but could not hold off the Los Angeles Kings, as they fell by a score of 3-2 via a shootout. Steve…
