Tuesday night's game against the Sharks had two different feels. On one hand, the Flyers were playing their best game in recent memory. And they were buzzing toward the end of regulation. As overtime neared, visions of the Flyers win against Los Angeles in late October were in mind. The Flyers just needed the finish, […]
Last week, Craig Berube threatened benchings. On Saturday, they began. First, it was Andrew MacDonald and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare who took a seat on Saturday. The benchings continued as the West Coast trip began. This time, Vincent Lecavalier was a victim. And so was…Michael Del Zotto? Wait a minute, the Flyers most consistent defenseman all season was […]
The result on Friday matched the result last Wednesday. A shutout loss to the Rangers featured a lifeless and uninterested Flyers team. This is not the same team that was rolling entering a five-day break on Nov. 8. This Flyers team, 1-6-1 in their last eight games is not a playoff team. And teams that […]
Happy Thanksgiving, Philadelphia! The Eagles delivered another classic game against the Cowboys to add to the holiday festivities on Thursday. In addition, they helped solidify their place atop the NFC East, setting the stage for another meeting between the two teams in just 17 days. But that was not before controlling the game in […]
There are moments throughout the season where we learn something about a team that can change the course of the ultimate goal.

Any time the Eagles and Dallas Cowboys face off, you can expect a showdown usually with high stakes. Put the two together on Thanksgiving with first place in the division on the line, and you've got the next closest thing to the Super Bowl. This is far more than a holiday for the Eagles, […]
The Flyers turned in a second-period effort that would suit a last-place team. Steve Mason was the victim. Craig Berube pulled the goalie that made 46 saves on Monday to keep his team in the game as Mason's teammates floundered in front of him again. For Berube, the message was the same following Wednesday's 5-2 […]
It's time for a line change for the Flyers. Game after game, it was one line truly powering the Flyers offense. When they were snuffed out by the New York Islanders on Monday, Craig Berube finally noticed what was obvious for several games. The Flyers have a lot of players who can score. But they […]
