Whether it is one of his 157 goals as a Flyer or one of the countless Hartnell down moments, everyone has a memory of Scott Hartnell. The winger spent seven seasons with the Orange and Black before an offseason trade sent him to Columbus. Two of the next five games for the Flyers are against […]
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 […]
Three wins gave the Flyers plenty of standout performers. But it has been impossible to ignore the tear Jake Voracek has been on in the last two weeks. Voracek extended his points streak to eight games with six points in three games this week. Voracek scored two goals in Tuesday's win over the Oilers, added […]
It will go down as one of the unsung plays of the season for the Flyers. In the closing seconds, Nick Grossmann stood tall and blocked a shot by John Mitchell that was bound for the back of the net. A goal would have blown a 4-0 lead in the final 20 minutes. Instead, the […]

The next opponent for the Orange and Black also comes from the Western Conference, as the Colorado Avalanche make their only appearance of the season at Wells Fargo Center. The opening […]
Welcome to Between the Pipes, a look at the Philadelphia Flyers and the NHL through linkage.
Jake Voracek extended his points streak to seven games on a great feed from Claude Giroux. Chris VandeVelde was quickly taken off the top line to get Wayne Simmonds better chances. Those were two storylines that will carry into the next game. But the one that would normally be overlooked is the scoring depth the […]
#458312194 / gettyimages.com The injury bug continues to run through the NHL during the early portion of the 2014-2015 season. Chicago forward Patrick Sharp is expected to miss at least a month after sustaining a lower body injury during Tuesday's 5-0 victory over the Canadiens.
When the Flyers faced the Florida Panthers on Saturday, taking a 2-1 loss, they didn't beat Roberto Luongo until there were just seven seconds left in regulation. They made up for it on Thursday. The Flyers scored twice in the first and twice more in the second as they beat the Panthers, 4-1, from Wells […]
