Flyers

While the numbers haven’t changed much yet, the Flyers are slowly showing signs of improvement in both special teams departments as the season’s first month comes to a close.

The Flyers allowed three goals in the third period in a 5-4 loss to the Coyotes, allowed the first goal for the seventh straight game and really never recovered from yet another slow start. Slow starts and poor defensive play are starting to do the Flyers in, and the schedule only gets harder from here.

Two Arizona goals in 1:39 did the Flyers in as Arizona scored three times in a sloppy game overall for the Flyers and held on for a 5-4 win on Thursday night.

After three straight games against Eastern Conference opponents, the Flyers wrap up the season series against a Western Conference team early. The Arizona Coyotes are in town on a night when the Flyers will pay tribute to the members of their Hall of Fame.

When you have a history as rich as the Flyers over 50 years, you recognize the legends of that history. The Flyers have done so for 25 players with enshrinement in the Flyers Hall of Fame, starting with the inaugural class in 1988.

For now, though, Read’s off to an incredible start. He’s tallied five goals in the Flyers’ first seven games of the season — nearly half of what he registered last year alone (11).

Travis Konecny’s first NHL goal sparked a roaring comeback for the Flyers, who used three power-play goals in the third to rally back against the Sabres before taking the win in a shootout.
