GOAL! Phantoms win in OT! The team salutes the fans before entering the locker room. LV 4 – ADK 3 #LVvsADK pic.twitter.com/kucKR91Nyj — LehighValleyPhantoms (@LVPhantoms) October 18, 2014 It was 18 years ago that the Flyers AHL affiliate, the Phantoms, took the ice for the first time.

A look at the Flyers October schedule and the way the first three games have played out brings a frightening though to mind. Last season, the Flyers started the season 1-7-0 in eight games. For the second straight season, the Flyers have opened with three straight losses after a 4-3 shootout loss to the Montreal […]

The Flyers season opener fully portrayed the dangers of playing on your heels. A late penalty kept the tilted ice in the Boston Bruins favor.

The 2014-15 NHL season has arrived and on Wednesday night, the Flyers kick things off against the Boston Bruins. After a 3-3-2 preseason, the Flyers enter the regular […]
