Flyers
During a five-game losing streak that came to a close on Saturday, there have been many questions that come to mind about the Flyers’ play. One of the many things plaguing the team’s performance is the inability to score on the power play, and that was no different even in a winning effort on Saturday.
A 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets was a test passed by the Flyers. With some luck finally on their side, it could be the break the Flyers were looking for to get back on track in their playoff push.
The Flyers scored a strange goal to take a 2-0 lead in the second period and held on for a 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday afternoon at Wells Fargo Center.
The Flyers showed some signs of nearing the end of their struggles. Perhaps Saturday is the day, but it will come against another difficult opponent, the Winnipeg Jets, who have been in the running for a division title and top spot in the conference all season.
The Flyers have recalled defenseman Travis Sanheim from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on an “emergency conditions,” GM Ron Hextall announced on Friday.
It isn’t the first time the Flyers have made the trip to TD Garden in March and come out on the wrong end of a result in the closing moments to the Boston Bruins. And it was a familiar foe that planted the dagger in the heart of the Flyers.
The Philadelphia Flyers continue their March slump as they fell to the Boston Bruins 3-2 in late, heartbreaking fashion.
The Philadelphia Flyers’ stock is falling as they’ve lost four straight. They’ll try to stop their bear market freefall tonight in Boston against the Bruins.
That’s now four straight losses for the Flyers, who are suddenly going through the motions of these games and falling into some of the same bad habits that led to a 10-game losing streak back in November.
The Pittsburgh Penguins once again handed the Flyers a familiar result, defeating the Flyers for the third time this season, 5-2, at Wells Fargo Center on Wednesday night.
