In my eyes, three problems have plagued the Flyers this season. Two of the problems are just skill-based: turnovers and poor special teams. Let’s get angry about them, but hey … what can you do? When it comes down to it, you just have to chalk them up in the “okay, so they’re bad, then”…

After starting the season 7-2-1, the Phantoms coming out of November with a 5-5-1 record is disappointing, but I feel that they did better than it seems given their circumstances. Along with injuries to Cole Bardreau, Philippe Myers, Samuel Morin, Reece Willcox, and Maxim Lamarche, the Phantoms were without top defenseman, Mark Alt, and AHL…

The Flyers used a potent power play and a Wayne Simmonds hat trick to beat the Sharks, 5-3, in their season opener on Wednesday night in San Jose.

[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] PHILADELPHIA — Hey, the Flyers won tonight. And for the most part, the issues of the last several games were completely nonexistant. Maybe that had something to do with the fact that they were playing a tired Carolina team that played in Raleigh…

We’ve said this a million times and it’s been talked to death, particularly on social media, but it’s very easy to hate the Flyers organization right now. No one could fault you for it if you do. But when John Tortorella recently sent a letter to season ticket holders ahead of the team’s drive for…
[Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] I don’t wanna say it. I don’t want to utter the word. I don’t want to call it that nasty, 11-letter C-word, because it might just be something that us onlookers create. Besides, if the team doesn’t see it as a problem, it’s…
No, the Stanley Cup Playoffs weren’t cancelled this year. They are ongoing, and the first round series between the Washington Capitals and Toronto Maple Leafs has been one of the more entertaining ones so far, what with the Caps barely hanging on after another President’s Trophy season and all. During Game 4 on Wednesday night…
