Flyers Might Be Winless Because the Defensemen Are Too Horny

The Flyers have yet to win a game this season. They’re 0-5-3. They have the worst offense in the NHL (1.25 goals per game). They have the second-worst power-play (8.3% power-play percentage). Their defense is ranked 25th (3.75 goals per game). Things are very, very bad, and it’s left Rick Tocchet having to answer the […] The post Flyers Might Be Winless Because the Defensemen Are Too Horny appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Thursday Morning Fly By: Another chance for something

*The Flyers are once again facing a hockey game. They have earned a wonderful 0-5-3 start to their season and are hoping to build off of their solid performance against the Kraken on Tuesday, as they visit the Red Wings on Thursday. But with this lengthy winless streak, can we look at the past and expect something to happen? We have taken a look at all previous significant winless streaks in Flyers history and how the general manager of that team responded. Could it tell us anything about what...

Flyers should consider claiming Aatu Raty off waivers

The Philadelphia Flyers have got to do something to turn around their 0-5-3 start. They signed veteran free agent Michael Bunting last week and called up Jack Studnicka to replace Carl Grundstrom over the weekend. Neither of those moves are really going to move the needle in the long run, but at least Danny Briere and Keith Jones are pressing what buttons they can before slamming the “break glass in case of emergency” button. We’ll see how long that takes. And yes, before we get too ...

Flyers Rejecting Plenty Of Trade Offers

The Philadelphia Flyers came close, but no cigar, in their attempt to register their first win of the season Tuesday night. A 3-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken leaves them at 0-5-3 after eight games, and everyone in the team's orbit is calling for major changes.  GM Danny Briere is certainly open to making trades to change up his roster, but to this point, he's rejected plenty of offers, according to insider Frank Seravalli.  Speaking on the Oilers Now podcast, Seravalli explained that ...

Rick Tocchet says Flyers defensemen are ‘too horny’ on the ice

One of the biggest differences in Tuesday night’s 3-2 shootout loss to Seattle for the Flyers was seeing the defense jump up in the rush. Oliver Bonk, who played with Travis Sanheim on the first pairing, was a force to be reckoned with at some points, and managed to start the play that lead to Philadelphia cutting the lead by the Kraken in half when Christian Dvorak made it 2-1. “I don’t know if I was waiting to get stopped, but I was just doing my best to keeping my feet moving,” Bonk sa...

How past Flyers GMs responded to historic winless streaks

As the Flyers are now eight games into the 2026-27 season still looking for a win, and now winless in their last 12 regular season and playoff games combined, the rumor mill is a bit louder than it was just two weeks ago. Remember two weeks ago? Philadelphia had not won a game, but they hadn’t lost either, ready to take on the Penguins and start building brick by brick towards another playoff run, and a bit more respectability. Well, 14 days later, that is a pipe dream. Philadelphia is now one...

NHL rumors: The veteran forward Flyers could include in trade talks amid nightmare start

Questions are already being asked about how to salvage a nightmare opening stretch. Although a coaching change is not currently expected, according to Daily Faceoff’s Anthony Di Marco, a […] The post NHL rumors: The veteran forward Flyers could include in trade talks amid nightmare start appeared first on ClutchPoints .

Hey, at Least the Flyers Fought Back for a Loser Point?

Baby steps here. The Flyers lost again on Tuesday night, their 8th in a row to begin the season, but at least they battled back for a loser point after facing a 2-0 deficit with less than 10 minutes in the third period. They could have rolled over and died a sad death but clawed […] The post Hey, at Least the Flyers Fought Back for a Loser Point? appeared first on Crossing Broad .
