If the Flyers couldn't get up to play on Wednesday in New York, perhaps an earful from the coach and GM and an emotional pre-game ceremony will do the trick. After a pitiful effort in a 2-0 loss to the Rangers on Wednesday, the Flyers return to the ice on Thursday to face the Minnesota […]
The Flyers woes at Madison Square Garden continued on Wednesday night, extending their losing streak to three games. One player came to play. Steve Mason made 32 saves, including several highlight-reel saves, to keep the Flyers in the game. The rest of the roster simply didn't show up. That spelled a 2-0 loss for […]
The two Flyers most synonymous with the 1990s decade are about to take their place in Flyers lore forever. Eric Lindros was a Flyer from the beginning. Though drafted by the Quebec Nordiques, he was traded to the Flyers and instantly a future leader from his rookie season in John LeClair started his career […]
For a good portion of Tuesday, the status of captain Claude Giroux was up in the air. Craig Berube didn't know anything. R.J. Umberger played time on the top line while hoping Giroux was good enough to play. Finally, after hours of speculation, Ron Hextall revealed the mildly bad news. Giroux would be out for […]
The Flyers will be without their captain for the next two games. Claude Giroux exited practice on Monday and seemed to be fine, but as the day wore on, it was clear he was dealing with an injury. Giroux has a lower-body injury that Ron Hextall said would keep him off the ice for a […]

The 7-2 Eagles entered Sunday's game against the Packers riding high after a huge win over the Panthers. Their only two losses were by a combined 10 points, and in both cases, the Eagles had a chance to take the lead with a touchdown right on the goal line. In some cases, the Eagles […]
When the Eagles made the trip to Lambeau Field last season, they did not face Aaron Rodgers. This time, they got the full Lambeau experience, complete with Rodgers dominance. Rodgers and the Packers put up 17 first-quarter points and never looked back, dominating the Eagles in a 53-20 win on Sunday afternoon.
A week ago, the Flyers were riding high after wins in six of their last eight games. Two games this weekend changed all that. The Flyers followed a sloppy 4-3 loss to the Blue Jackets with a sloppier 6-3 loss in Montreal against the Canadiens. There were points there for the taking in both games. […]
Just six days aftrer handily beating the Panthers, the Eagles must tame a much bigger beast. The Green Bay Packers play host to the Eagles in Week 11, in a game where a lot of playoff implications are at stake. One of those implications is the Eagles sole possession of first place. With a […]
