The Lehigh Valley Phantoms were back on the ice against the Penguins after a disappointing loss to begin their season. Alex Lyon got the start in net and was solid making 18 saves on 19 shots. The Phantoms were led by great performances from German Rubtsov, Isaac Ratcliffe, Joel Farabee, and Phil Myers. Rubtsov collected…
It was just that kind of game. We can paint it any which way we want — maybe the Flyers should have started Ilya Bryzgalov, perhaps they were just tired after playing their fifth game in eight days. Sometimes it’s just not your night, and the Flyers win streak was snapped at five tonight in…
It was reported yesterday by TSN’s Travis Yost that the Flyers were close on an extension with forward Michael Raffl, but were still shopping him to other teams to check if any would meet a very high asking price. This morning, general manager Ron Hextall and the Flyers made their decision. Forward Michael Raffl has…
For all intents and purposes, Michael Leighton is gone. With him on waivers, even if doesn’t get claimed, he won’t be back this season unless the goaltending situation changes with an injury. And that’s okay. The Flyers are back to the two goalie system. Both goaltenders, Brian Boucher and Sergei Bobrovsky, will get ample practice…
The Philadelphia Flyers were back at the Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday evening following a thrilling win over the Penguins Sunday night. Their newest test was a battle against the Montreal Canadiens, the very team ahead of them in the chase to get back into the wild card race. Both teams are just a handful…

Neat. I decided to say things after today’s ‘game.’ Some of the things I said involved asking why: Dave Hakstol is still here? Ian Laperriere is still here? Ron Hextall hasn’t fired Hakstol? Not blow it up to get Jack Hughes?/ We also talked about the team’s lack of urgency, potentially calling up Alex Lyon…
Ray Emery is officially sticking around. The Flyers announced Friday afternoon that they’re signing the veteran goaltender for the remainder of the season. He’s not eligible to play in the postseason, but Michal Neuvirth is expected to be back if the Flyers do make the playoffs. Anthony Stolarz is also still on the roster, so…
No one on the Flyers’ roster will admit to packing it in on this abysmal 2022-23 campaign, but with just several games remaining before the season finally comes to a close, this certainly doesn’t look like a club going all out to end things on a high note. The Flyers fell to the Dallas Stars…
The 2015 NHL Draft is here. On Friday night in South Florida, the NHL’s 30 teams officially kick off the 2015-16 league year with the annual event in Sunrise, Fla. It’s bigger than ever this year with two big names expected to go right off the top: Connor McDavid to the Edmonton Oilers and Jack…
