UPDATE, 10/3: Read has cleared waivers and has been loaned to the Phantoms, per the team this afternoon. #Flyers loan forward Matt Read to the @LVPhantoms: https://t.co/a12UsjM3ht — Philadelphia Flyers (@NHLFlyers) October 3, 2017 Our guess is still that Read will probably not be with the Phantoms for long — just as long as it…
*Happy Friday, friends. There is so much hockey to watch right now. It is equal parts great and tiring. So much hockey. Imagine if we had to care about it!!! Anyhoo, big news yesterday was Egor Zamula being done for the season. [The Hockey News] *Speaking of Phantoms’ defensemen, Emil Andrae seems to be emerging…
We’ve spent the night celebrating the Flyers trip to the 2010 Eastern Conference Championship, as many around the city and the region have also done. After the jump, in similar fashion to the time capsule we put together following the Flyers’ miraculous Game 7 win against Boston, we take a look at how the media…
Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet is one of the most plugged-in folks in hockey, and he’s made some predictions for the goaltending market once it opens at 12 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon. Among those predictions, Friedman says he believes that Brian Elliott — most recently of the Calgary Flames — will be coming to Philadelphia….
As many teams do prior to hosting an outdoor game (you’ll likely remember the Flyers-Rangers alumni game played on New Years’ Eve in 2011), the Flyers confirmed today that they and the Pittsburgh Penguins, as part of each of their 50th anniversary celebrations, will host an alumni game in early 2017, prior to the teams’…
*These idiots won’t lose! Bless. RECAP! *Four of the better “prospects” in the Flyers organization have found themselves at varying levels on the latest ESPN top-50 prospect ranking. Which I would link to, but it’s their dumb Insider+++ nonsense, so instead you get this secondhand retelling of the tale. [NBC Sports Philly] *Scott Gordon had…
Excusing the huge caveat that, technically speaking, neither of these guys are available, TSN’s Darren Dreger reports that Detroit Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock and San Jose Sharks head coach Todd McLellan are men the Philadelphia Flyers covet for their newly-vacant bench boss position. As of late last week, I was told McLellan and…
PROGRAMMING NOTE: Alright, guys. So here’s the deal. Travis is not around today, given that he’s in Pittsburgh (ew gross) for the Frozen Four championship with his alma mater, Quinnipiac. So I’m recapping, but I have an important obligation immediately after this game is expected to end. So covering this afternoon’s ever-so-crucial contest in Buffalo…
Michael Del Zotto and the Philadelphia Flyers will not be going to arbitration. The team announced Thursday that they have come to a “multi-year” agreement with their restricted free agent defenseman. The Flyers are petulant children when it comes to actually announcing the important part of the news — how long the contract is and…
[Event Summary] – [PBP Log] – [TOI Log] – [Faceoff Report][Shift Charts] – [Head-to-Head TOI] – [Corsi and Fenwick] – [5-on-5 Faceoffs] Yes, the Flyers 2-1 win over Buffalo helped Washington get closer to making the playoffs (their win clinched their spot), but look on the bright side: we get to watch the Rangers destroy…
