Photos: Nina Weiss/Flyerdelphia The Lehigh Valley Phantoms will have two representatives in the AHL All-Star Classic this weekend in Syracuse, NY — forward Nick Cousins and goaltender Anthony Stolarz. Cousins, 22, hails from Belleville, Ontario and leads the Phantoms in scoring with 12 goals and 24 points in 36 games. Stolarz, also 22, is from Edison, NJ and […]
On Wednesday night, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms tried to accomplish something they hadn't all season: complete a three-game winning streak. Behind a five-point game from Colin McDonald, who had a hat trick and two assists, and two goals from All-Star Nick Cousins, the Phantoms downed the Binghamton Senators, 6-3, on Wednesday night at PPL Center.

Two years ago, that almost didn't seem like a possibility. Stolarz had suffered a gruesome injury while playing junior hockey for the London Knights, when a skate cut the back of his […]

But on Saturday night, an already long stretch of frustration continued for the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. Adam Tambellini's goal at 1:51 of the third period proved to […]

It's hard to be considered a prospect and part of the future when you're having success at hockey's highest level. Shayne Gostisbehere scored […]
Photo: Nina Weiss/Flyerdelphia Coming into Friday's battle at the Mohegan Sun Arena, the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins had only lost two games all season. None of those losses had come at home. Until now. Aaron Palushaj, Mark Alt and Taylor Leier recorded goals, and Anthony Stolarz made a season-high 35 saves to lead the Lehigh Valley Phantoms past the Penguins on Friday night by a score […]
It's another week with one win and two losses for the Flyers. A 1-0-2 week is certainly a lot better than the ones of recent memory, but the team is still struggling for points in the standings and goals on the ice. Miss anything on Flyerdelphia from this week? We have it all […]
It started promising, then quickly faded into the abyss that has been the lone consistency of the Flyers season. Thus is a 1-2-0 week that ended with two poorly played blowout losses. It left the door open for more discussion surrounding the team, which there was plenty of on Flyerdelphia this week. In case you […]

This was not a memorable one for Lehigh Valley, as they dropped all three games to Hershey, Syracuse and the Binghamton Senators, the team they were facing again on Wednesday night. This time, the Phantoms got the […]
