After a thrilling yet oh-so annoying overtime win vs. Arizona on Thursday night, the Flyers look to win two in a row over the Chicago Blackhawks in today’s Saturday matinee. In their last five games, the Flyers have acquired nine out of a possible 10 points and all of a sudden sit just two points…

The Philadelphia Flyers and the Toronto Maple Leafs both have reputations for being aggressive and physical, and really, that’s putting things delicately. The Flyers, a perennial leader in penalties, currently lead the league with 980 (!) total penalty minutes. After a significant gap, because really, how can you compete with nearly a thousand penalty minutes,…

Flyers content! Yeah, that’s right. Try to tell me there’s nothing to talk about, I dare you! Ok, well we tried our best.

I contemplated changing the whole tone of this recap after the Flyers put four goals on the board. However, in the end, the goals in the third really don’t matter. That game really sucked. 6-0 after two periods does not a good hockey game make. Yes, the Flyers didn’t roll over and die completely, that’s…

*You thought it’d be Mike Richards well HA. I said obscure. Brantt Myhers, noted face-puncher, is your throwback for today. *Meltzer on five road games you won’t want to miss on television this season. [Flyers] *Apparently, Paul Holmgren has regrets over trading James van Riemsdyk way back in 2012 and is happy that we’re all…

When the Charlotte Checkers’ won their final regular season game last Sunday, it was confirmed that the Lehigh Valley Phantoms’ first round opponent will be the Providence Bruins, and for a first seed versus a fourth seed, the two teams are surprisingly similar.
