Flyers

The Tampa Bay Lightning scored three power-play goals in the game, pacing the way to a 5-2 loss for the Flyers on Tuesday night.

The Flyers face the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday, who are currently on a five-game losing streak and have lost eight of their last 10 games.

A shorthanded goal by Nick Deslauriers and another by Noah Cates pushed the Flyers ahead. They locked things down on defense the rest of the way. It all led to a 3-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings.

With the trade deadline now in the past, the Flyers begin the final 20 games against a team that started selling at the deadline, the Detroit Red Wings.

Well, the trade deadline is in the books, and the guys are back to look what went down. The Flyers had an interesting week to say the least, from Chuck Fletcher‘s first media availability in nearly three months, to Rangers fans taking over Wells Fargo Center, to a disastrous trade deadline day and the aftermath. […]

After another case of organizational malpractice at the trade deadline, the choice is in the hands of the Flyers highest-appointed figures. You can accept this reality of being the laughing stock of the NHL and accept the growing distance between yourself and as loyal a fanbase as there is in sports or you can finally do something about it. Time’s yours.

Chuck Fletcher’s already underwhelming trade deadline week turned into a disastrous deadline day. The Flyers traded Zack MacEwen and Patrick Brown, but had a deal with James van Riemsdyk fall through while acquiring Brendan Lemieux and two late-round draft picks.

Vladimir Tarasenko had two assists in regulation before scoring the game-winning goal in overtime in a 3-2 Flyers loss.

With less than 48 hours until the NHL trade deadline, the Flyers play their final game prior against the New York Rangers on Wednesday night.
