6: The number of Philadelphia Flyers players who choose not to wear visors on their helmets. The list includes Matt Walker, Andreas Lilja, Max Talbot, Jody Shelley, Wayne Simmonds and yes, Chris Pronger. We’re assuming this number will drop to five pretty soon. And if I had my way, it would drop to zero immediately….
The dust has finally settled on draft weekend, and as our vision clears, we know one thing for certain: for the Philadelphia Flyers, the 2017 draft has been absolute, total, inexcusable, objective failure.

As the Flyers approach the trade deadline, they may be faced with the question of whether or not to deal their longest tenured player in Braydon Coburn. We all know that the Flyers aren’t going to be buyers at this year’s trade deadline. Regardless of how optimistic you are about their chances of making the…
Brandon Manning started the 2017-18 season as a spare part on the Flyers defense, but injuries opened a door and he seized a spot in the regular rotation and PK, and even saw time on the 2nd PP unit. He was shredded by much of the fanbase because he was mistake prone and often placed…
