After a dominant win over Tampa Bay, the Flyers have sluggishly played their way to losses in three of four games. But Tuesday, […]
The beaten and battered Flyers continue to deal with injuries and the list got longer on Monday. In Monday's 7-4 loss to the Islanders, defensemen Nick Schultz and Carlo Colaiacovo suffered injuries. Both are listed as questionable for Tuesday night's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins with upper-body injuries.
Just as it did on Tuesday, another game came down to the final moments for the Flyers. Just as they did on Tuesday, they found a way to win. A power play in overtime gave the Flyers a chance to make something happen. They wasted no time. Just 17 seconds into the power play, Jake […]
The Flyers got the all-important first goal that dictated results of late, and did hold the lead after the first period. But something about the first period didn't add up.

What mattered was the effort of his own players. The Flyers turned in their best game of the season on Tuesday, […]

The signs were there last season and furthermore in the preseason. Top Flyers defensive prospect Shayne Gostisbehere will be called up in light of the […]
