Back in late April, winger Oskar Lindblom’s Swedish season came to an end, and it seemed likely that an NHL contract with the Flyers would follow not long after. That time has now come, on this fine Tuesday in late May: Per GM Ron Hextall, the #Flyers have signed 2014 5th round draft pick Oskar…

The Philadelphia Flyers have experienced quite a lot of change over the last month. Chuck Fletcher is out as general manager, Dan Hilferty is taking over for Dave Scott as the franchise’s chairman, and Bobby Clark, Bill Barber and Paul Holmgren, three of the Flyers’ senior advisors, will apparently have much less say in the…
Not much Flyers news this weekend that we haven’t already discussed. As you already know by now, Randy Jones has been waived by the team. Up in Glens Falls, they’re drooling at the possibility of having an NHL defenseman on their AHL team. [Post-Star] Goaltender Brian Boucher was injured Saturday in New Jersey. He’s expected…

The Flyers took the early lead off a goal by Jake Voracek and looked to be picking up some steam, and then gave up two goals,…

The Flyers have a big one against the Rangers on Tuesday night.
