John Tortorella’s exit interview on Friday featured numerous topics, including the end of the Flyers season, Sean Couturier, and the power play.

Danny Briere’s first trade deadline as Flyers GM involved a little bit of everything: eyes on the future, rewarding the present, and continuing the message of locker room culture.

The Flyers have maintained the focus is on the future at the trade deadline. Their actions this week will be critical for supporting that message.

The Flyers make preparations for the Stadium Series, soaking in the experience with family while recognizing the importance of the game.

Only a few players on the Flyers roster played in the most recent outdoor games in franchise history. This weekend offers a new experience.

Nathan MacKinnon scored two goals and added two assists for a four-point game, as the Avalanche held off a frantic Flyers rally in the third for a 7-4 decision on Saturday afternoon at Wells Fargo Center.

The Flyers were unable to find a higher gear and rally back from two late two-goal deficits, closing 2023 with a loss to the Calgary Flames.

Owen Tippett scored the overtime winner as the Flyers extended their points streak to nine games with a 3-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.

Sam Ersson stopped all 33 shots faced in the Flyers 1-0 shutout win over the Detroit Red Wings, extending their points streak to eight games.

Travis Konecny’s second goal of the game came on a penalty shot in the third period, helping the Flyers to a 5-2 win over the Avalanche. 

The roster is seemingly set for the Flyers opening game of the 2023-24 season. It could be very veteran-heavy to start, despite multiple hopefuls making the roster. It will be a balancing act all season to get prospects the playing time needed to further development.

The Flyers are already down to their final handful of cuts with one preseason game and five days to go before the final roster is submitted.

The Flyers open the preseason schedule on home ice by taking on the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night at 7 p.m.

With half of the preseason in the books, check out these observations to this point from Flyers training camp and the preseason.

The Flyers announced that they have signed defenseman Marc Staal to a one-year deal worth $1.1 million.

A low-cost deal that could be flipped at the deadline? Take a flier on a low-risk, high-reward player looking for a chance? There are a few scenarios for the Flyers in free agency starting Saturday.

The NHL Draft is one week away. In the second part of a four-part series, one that will feature two parts within, we look at some possibilities with the 7th overall pick in the NHL Draft.

Alex DeBrincat scored off a turnover by Felix Sandstrom in overtime to hand the Flyers a 5-4 loss to the Ottawa Senators and snap their winning streak at four games.

The Flyers got the game tied again with 5:44 remaining, forcing overtime and the eventual shootout, where the Flyers claimed a 5-4 win over the Wild on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.

After another case of organizational malpractice at the trade deadline, the choice is in the hands of the Flyers highest-appointed figures. You can accept this reality of being the laughing stock of the NHL and accept the growing distance between yourself and as loyal a fanbase as there is in sports or you can finally do something about it. Time’s yours.

The Flyers are very much in a process. Chuck Fletcher admitted as much one day after John Tortorella continued his season-long message of building. Just don’t expect people to be vocal in their trust in it.

Matt Duchene scored 34 seconds into overtime to hand the Flyers a 2-1 loss to the Nashville Predators on Saturday afternoon.

From the front office to coaches to the players, there are plenty of areas of focus regarding the Flyers. Here are some takeaways.

Carter Hart made 40 saves to pick up his first shutout of the season in the Flyers 4-0 win over the Winnipeg Jets.

After tying the game in the final two minutes, Mats Zuccarello was the hero for the Minnesota Wild, as the Flyers fell, 3-2, in overtime.

Kevin Fiala fired home the game-winning goal at 1:09 of overtime to hand the Flyers a 4-3 loss to the Kings on Tuesday night at Wells Fargo Center.

Kevin Hayes scored a hat trick as the Flyers bounced back with a 5-2 win over the Ducks on Tuesday night at Wells Fargo Center.

Ersson allowed a goal on the first shot he faced in his NHL career and was eventually pulled after allowing five goals. In relief, Hart was back in goal, until he was forced to exit with an injury, sending Ersson back in during a whirlwind 6-5 loss for the Flyers to the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday night.

One day prior to the four-year anniversary of Ron Hextall’s firing as Flyers GM, chants of “Fire Fletcher” could be heard at Wells Fargo Center. Chuck Fletcher’s time should be running out, but it’s not the only change that needs to be made.
