*The NHL opens their season tonight, even if we have to wait until tomorrow night. What we don’t have to wait for, however, is tomorrow’s opening night roster. [Flyers] *BSH Radio will be live tonight on your internet airwaves. Please to enjoy. [BSH] *Evidently Nick Schultz is hoping for a different start to this season….
Despite showing a pretty pathetic effort in Vancouver, the Flyers road trip has been pretty successful thus far. Let’s hope that trend continues tonight in Calgary. The Flyers probably shouldn’t have won last night’s game against the Canucks. They were outshot, outplayed, and were just awful defensively. Hell, Tom Sestito scored a goal, which was…
*It seemed like The Insiders were suggesting that the Tony DeAngelo-to-Carolina trade that was supposed to happen weeks ago would happen yesterday, June 9, after the requisite year since his trade to Philly happened. Well, Meatballs is still a Flyer. And it doesn’t seem like anyone really knows what is happening anymore. [Hockeybuzz] *What DID…
Almost a year ago, the Flyers and the Carolina Hurricanes played a hockey game that we politely referred to as “completely meaningless“. It took place the day after the Flyers were mathematically eliminated from the postseason, the Hurricanes had already reached that point, and there was incredibly little to care about. Today’s game between the…
Last Friday’s announcement that Shayne Gostisbehere was signed to a six-year, $27 million contract came as welcome news to most of the Flyers’ fanbase.

Over the past two and a half years, the two teams that will face each other tonight in the Wells Fargo Center have become about as familiar and intertwined with each other as two teams that only actually played against each other once in that time frame possibly can. The Blue Jackets have been the…
*Ahh, it’s nice to have the hockey back, eh? And it’s back again tonight! What a thrill! RECAP! *Chaz had a press conference yesterday, in which he revealed a few interesting nuggets about how he views this team. [Flyers] *Perhaps the most interesting nugg is that he can see the Flyers being both buyers and…
A thrilling win vs. Pittsburgh helped drown the negative feelings after the back-to-back losses suffered to Washington and Toronto, but now comes another big game. This time, the Flyers take on the Montreal Canadiens, the team directly ahead of them in the wild card chase. Just three point separate the two teams, and with a…
After a brief mention of it last year, we’ve decided to provide a monthly update on each of the Philadelphia Flyers’ prospects NHL equivalency projections (or NHLe). As stated when the original article was posted last season, this is by no means a perfect way to measure how a prospect is developing, but it one…

Via Slava Malamud of Sports-Express: Sport-Express reports: Bryzgalov NOT talking to SKA at this moment, is looking at Philly, TBL and Washington. No further details. And translated…
