Philadelphia Flyers
Welcome to Between the Pipes, a look at the Philadelphia Flyers and the NHL through linkage.
Whether it is one of his 157 goals as a Flyer or one of the countless Hartnell down moments, everyone has a memory of Scott Hartnell. The winger spent seven seasons with the Orange and Black before an offseason trade sent him to Columbus. Two of the next five games for the Flyers are against […]
Once again, it's Thursday and it's been a slow week around here with five days between games for the Flyers. But we're about to change all that. It's time to reach into this week's mailbag.
Six games into the season, the Flyers had one win – and a very poor one at that. They had four points in the standings, one from a blown game against Montreal at home on Oct. 11, where a 3-0 lead in the final period ended in a 4-3 shootout loss. They had another point […]
