Philadelphia Flyers
It was only about two weeks ago when the New York Islanders handled the Philadelphia Flyers rather rudely in Brooklyn, winning 3-1. Looking to change that story, it probably didn't give the Flyers a very good feeling to fall behind after only 55 seconds. The Flyers played okay the rest of the first period, but […]
Take this in: the Flyers had to make a goalie change just 1:14 into the second, after Steve Mason allowed the Islanders third goal on 10 shots. The Flyers went on to outshoot the Islanders, 17-5, in the second and 46-26 for the game. So the Islanders won in a shootout. Sounds familiar, right? "We […]
Another long range shot made its way past Steve Mason. Just like on Saturday, the Flyers found themselves on the wrong end of a 3-1 score. Dave Hakstol made the change in goal and the Flyers were a completely different team. The frenetic pace of the second period nearly had the Flyers completely erase the […]
A strong two weeks for the Flyers came to a crashing halt on Saturday when they suffered their first loss in four games to the lowly Columbus Blue Jackets, getting outplayed in every aspect of the game. The team that last handed the Flyers a loss before that awaits next on the schedule. The […]
The Flyers suffered another injury to their blue line on Saturday with Luke Schenn going down for two weeks with a lower-body injury. With Mark Streit still out with injury and Radko Gudas serving out the remainder of his suspension, the Flyers needed to make a move. The Flyers recalled Andrew MacDonald from the Lehigh […]

There was injury added to the insult of a 4-1 loss to Columbus on Saturday. Defenseman Luke Schenn suffered an ankle injury late in the game on Saturday and will miss two weeks with a lower-body injury, according to Flyers GM Ron Hextall.

But the week featured plenty of positives, as the Flyers extended the previous week's winning streak to four games. With that, it's time once again to pick our Player and Play of the […]
View image | gettyimages.com The Philadelphia Flyers faced a motivated team last night in the Columbus Blue Jackets, and were never really in the game. It took the Jackets almost 10 minutes to break through on the scoreboard, but there was little doubt about the outcome for most of the game. The Flyers were […]
December 5, 2005 The trading of prospects can lead to some wonderful things, or terrible blunders. It’s all in how someone views young talent and their potential. With the Flyers front office, they didn’t see what another team apparently did. In a relatively small footnote to the 2005-06 season, the Flyers made a trade with the […]
