Philadelphia Flyers
The Flyers were in Voorhees on Monday as they packed up following a disappointing 2014-15 season. Each player met individually with Craig Berube and Ron Hextall and also faced the media. The day was filled with quotable moments. Here's some of the highlights.
April 6, 1968 After the NHL expanded its league from six teams to twelve in the 1967-68 season, all six expansion teams were placed in the "West" Division. With the Flyers finishing first and the St. Louis Blues finishing third, they faced off in a Quarterfinal Round, best-of-seven series. Although it took two days later […]

Brandon Manning is now officially a Flyer. For three seasons, the defenseman got a taste of the NHL level on various call-ups. Manning has played 10 games with the Flyers this season, including the last six, and has done enough to earn a spot in the future. The 24-year-old signed a one-year, NHL-only deal with […]
There are just two games remaining in the Flyers season. Prior to the final one on Saturday, when the Flyers host the Ottawa Senators, the team will present their annual awards.

If the Flyers don't win another game this season, and fade away as a disappointing season, at least they will have Sunday's game against the Penguins to hang their hat on. The Flyers completed a season sweep of the Penguins with wins on Wednesday and Sunday, both by a score of 4-1. Sunday's game, the […]
Every time the Penguins fired a shot, Steve Mason was there to answer the call. Through 22 first-period shots, Mason made 21 saves, easily keeping the Flyers in the game. One save stood out, a glove save on Craig Adams robbing him on a rebound chance. It was arguably Mason's best save of the season. […]
The Battle of Pennsylvania, as it is affectionately known, has never failed to offer entertaining hockey no matter what the standings say. For the Flyers, Sunday's final edition of the Battle of Pennsylvania in the 2014-15 season is for pride, just as it was last Wednesday in a 4-1 win in Pittsburgh. […]
