Uniquely, no Phantoms (8-9-1-0) registered a multi-point game. Twelve different players recorded a point, while the Bruins' Seth Griffith was […]

Straka scored his 11th of the season — tying him with Texas' Devin Shore for the American League's lead […]
While the Flyers did take the ice Saturday in Kanata, Ont. for a matchup with the Ottawa Senators, evidently, they did not show up. Showing up would imply that actual hockey was played, and what the Flyers churned out was not NHL-caliber hockey. It's an effort that resembles what a juniors team would look like […]
