Philadelphia Flyers
If the Flyers could take one lesson from a 7-1 loss in Florida on Saturday, it was that they could not rely on a goaltender to bail them out time and time again in games. Defensively, they would need to make plays at every part of the ice. In Monday night's season opener, the team […]
Brayden Schenn picked up a rebound after a great effort by a driving Sam Gagner. At 5:57, the Flyers had the lead. Wells Fargo Center was roaring following the goal, which came almost immediately after a huge momentum booster for the Flyers, who had successfully killed a four-minute, double-minor. That goal would be the only […]

Some say Steve Mason has what it takes to become a choice player in the ranks of Henrik Lundqvist or Carey Price. He had a good start in the 2015-16 season opener against Tampa Bay with 29 saves on 32 shots. With the devastating loss in overtime, all hopes were to win the second game […]

Twice, the Flyers were given the golden opportunity for a goal. A penalty shot. It happened to Claude Giroux in the first. It happened to Scott Laughton in overtime. Both times, the Flyers failed to capitalize. In the overtime, it proved costly as moments after, Jason Garrison scored on a breakaway for his second goal […]

Here is it: game No. 1 of 82. It is only the beginning for the Flyers, and for now, they start with the rest of the NHL’s 30 teams. They have a clean slate after a few forgettable seasons that saw them miss the playoffs twice and fall out in the first round in the […]
