Flyers get late point, fall in OT to Blue Jackets

A matter of inches helped the Flyers salvage another point. And another odd-man-rush foiled the Flyers chance for the second. A goal by Brayden Schenn in the final minute of regulation just barely trickled over the line to force overtime. But in the extra session, the Flyers chances were thwarted by Sergei Bobrovsky before Kevin […]

Morning After: Jaws takes life from Flyers

Tuesday night's game against the Sharks had two different feels. On one hand, the Flyers were playing their best game in recent memory. And they were buzzing toward the end of regulation.

Durso: Berube needs to give Flyers line change

It's time for a line change for the Flyers.  Game after game, it was one line truly powering the Flyers offense. When they were snuffed out by the New York Islanders on Monday, Craig Berube finally noticed what was obvious for several games. The Flyers have a lot of players who can score. But they […]

Game 16 Preview: Flyers get quick turnaround in Montreal

A long layoff hurt the Flyers on Friday night. Lucky for them, there is not much time to dwell on the recent opast and a chance at redemption waiting on Saturday.

Morning After: Flyers rusty in return from break

Five days off on the schedule helped end a five-game home winning streak for the Flyers. But the break was hardly a reason for the Flyers sluggish effort against a reeling Blue Jackets team. Columbus entered Friday night's game on a nine-game losing streak – 0-8-1 in their last nine games – and stunned the […]

Durso: Again, Flyers find a way to rise from slow start

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 […]

Morning After: Lower lines play role in latest Flyers win

Jake Voracek extended his points streak to seven games on a great feed from Claude Giroux. Chris VandeVelde was quickly taken off the top line to get Wayne Simmonds better chances. Those were two storylines that will carry into the next game. But the one that would normally be overlooked is the scoring depth the […]
