When the captain struck for a late power-play goal, it appeared the Flyers struggles in the standings were finally over. Just three minutes separated the Flyers from at least a point and a chance for more. But in the final minute, it all changed on a broken play. The puck took a strange hop off […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. […]
#458857112 / gettyimages.com The Flyers couldn't stay out of the box early. They couldn't kill the penalties. P.A. Parenteau and Dale Weise each netted two goals. Alex Galchenyuk added three assists. When the dust had settled, the Montreal Canadiens edged the Philadelphia Flyers 6-3 on Saturday night at the Bell Centre.
A long layoff hurt the Flyers on Friday night. Lucky for them, there is not much time to dwell on the recent opast and a chance at redemption waiting on Saturday. Redemption comes in two forms in this Saturday night game between the Flyers and the Montreal Canadiens. The Flyers had a three-game winning streak […]
Five days off on the schedule helped end a five-game home winning streak for the Flyers. But the break was hardly a reason for the Flyers sluggish effort against a reeling Blue Jackets team. Columbus entered Friday night's game on a nine-game losing streak – 0-8-1 in their last nine games – and stunned the […]

This is the first game for the Flyers in six days. Game time is 7:00.
Six games into the season, the Flyers had one win – and a very poor one at that. They had four points in the standings, one from a blown game against Montreal at home on Oct. 11, where a 3-0 lead in the final period ended in a 4-3 shootout loss. They had another point […]
When the day began, the Flyers had two of the league leaders in assists. Claude Giroux and Jake Voracek were tied with 13. Voracek extended his lead there while Giroux padded his points total in a different way. It had been since Oct. 18 since Giroux had last scored a goal, an overtime winner in […]
