Until now. Aaron Palushaj, Mark Alt and Taylor Leier recorded goals, and Anthony Stolarz made a season-high 35 saves to lead the Lehigh Valley Phantoms past the Penguins on Friday night by a score […]
View image | gettyimages.com It's been five games for Shayne Gostisbehere, but I've seen enough. The Flyers should not return the 22-year-old rookie defenseman to the minors after Mark Streit returns from injury, or for any other reason for that matter. It's not just because he happens to have more goals scored than the […]
It's another week with one win and two losses for the Flyers. A 1-0-2 week is certainly a lot better than the ones of recent memory, but the team is still struggling for points in the standings and goals on the ice. Miss anything on Flyerdelphia from this week? We have it all […]
It’s been 18 games and the Flyers are now 6-8-4 after a 3-2 shootout loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday. After a 4-2-1 start, the fall down in the standings wasn’t expected. The easy person to blame in the coach – always has been, always will be. But this is […]
View image | gettyimages.com Shayne Gostisbehere got a small taste of the NHL as an emergency call-up last season. He played in two games before going back to the AHL. Five games later, his season was over after an ACL injury. The Flyers game in Carolina on Saturday night, Nov. 14, was a long […]

Seven shots. That was all the Flyers had to show for 40 minutes of play against the Carolina Hurricanes. No one would blame you if you had already chalked this up as the ninth loss in 10 games for the Flyers, with more on the way. But the Flyers still had a chance, down one […]

Umberger was announced to be out for at least one-to-two weeks on Thursday. He was placed on injured reserve with a lower-body injury, and is now joined by Mark Streit, who is on long-term injured […]
Photo: Nina Weiss/Flyerdelphia The previous weekend was rough for the Phantoms. Three-in-three weekends are common in the AHL. This was not a memorable one for Lehigh Valley, as they dropped all three games to Hershey, Syracuse and the Binghamton Senators, the team they were facing again on Wednesday night. This time, the Phantoms got the […]
Photo: Nina Weiss/Flyerdelphia The Phantoms already depleted roster took another hit on Sunday, but in a different way. It wasn't an injury that left them without another regular. The Flyers recalled Chris Conner from the team on Sunday afternoon. And so Conner was on his way to Vancouver and into his place stepped Kevin Sundher. […]
