591 — The number of games the Flyers have played, including playoff games, since the last time they tallied five or more consecutive wins in regulation. That goes back to the Orange and Black’s 2-1 win over the New York Islanders on November 6th, 2010, which at the time was their sixth straight regulation win….
Welcome to the first throwback version of Checking Out the Competition for the season! Many, many years ago, before The Great Pivot To Video of 2k17, Broad Street Hockey used to exchange pre-game questions with our friends at the other SB Nation NHL hockey blogs via e-mail and we’d write all of those words here…
As you know by now, the Flyers called up Tyrell Goulbourne yesterday around 5:30pm. What you may not know is that BSH Radio recorded their first podcast of 2018 beginning around 4:25pm. Below, you will see a prediction from out very own Director of Fun and Games Bill Matz as he calls for Ron to…
One can’t argue the fact that the Philadelphia Flyers are on a three-game winning streak. It is, factually, impossible. However, one could argue that this particular winning streak hasn’t been pretty in the least bit. Any type of win was going to be welcomed last Monday when the Orange and Black beat the Calgary Flames…
The Flyers may have used up all their good shootout mojo last season. Pierre-Luc Dubois was the only scorer in the shootout as the Blue Jackets dispatched the Flyers 2-1 to send both teams to the holiday break on Saturday night after a low-scoring affair in Columbus. Seth Jones started the scoring for Columbus in…
Presented without comment: Congrats to the @NHLFlyers pic.twitter.com/Cmn3VFyrf5 — Travis Hughes (10-1) (@TravisSBN) December 2, 2017 All stats via Corsica.Hockey, Natural Stat Trick, and NHL.com 1. Early promise Heading into yesterday’s game, it felt like it was going to be the real litmus test of where the team is at. A pretty deflated performance against…
Things are bad for Flyers fans. This is not a secret. Not only is the team performing poorly, they’re not doing it in the worst possible way. Fans are on edge and the media is either sanctimonious or frustrated, in the trenches, along with the fans. Many of us use this sport and this team…
The Flyers stooped to a new low in a 3-1 loss to the Sharks to push their losing streak to nine games. That new low? A pathetic third period effort that saw just one shot on goal through 15 minutes to start the third period facing just a two-goal deficit. Having blown two-goal leads in…
*This is uh…this is getting rough. Recap. *So yeah here’s what we learned from Monday night’s game. A lot of it will sound familiar. But there’s some good stuff here. [BSH] *It was Dads Weekend with the Flyers! That’s always heart warming. Let’s focus on that. [Philly.com] *Brian Elliott and Michal Neuvirth have both gotten…
And we’re going streaking! The Philadelphia Flyers, yes those same ones, just won all three games on a Western Canada road trip for the first time since 1996. That’s a time period longer than Ivan Provorov’s life. Michael Raffl continued his hot streak with a third game winning goal in a row and BSMF Brian…
