The Philadelphia Flyers may have lost on Thursday night, but the fans won as we were introduced to several of the players’ nicknames on the broadcast.
Some of the nicknames are self-explanatory, while others were improved by learning more about them.
Without any further ado, here is the official ranking of the Flyers’ team nicknames from Wednesday night’s broadcast.
7. Tyson Foerster as “Forey”
This is as hockey player as it gets. A typical hockey nickname just takes t...

The Oilers were in Philadelphia on Wednesday to kick off their seven-game road trip and the first half of a back-to-back set that wraps up tonight in Columbus. The boys squeezed out a 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers to get the trip started, and while it took until the extra frame to get the…

The Edmonton Oilers found a way to get a win, securing their second straight overtime winner off the stick of Jack Roslovic. It came in part thanks to a swift offside challenge from Oilers video coach Noah Segall that negated a Travis Konecny goal in the final minute of the third, but that goal didn’t…

When Sean Couturier signed his eight-year, $62 million dollar deal on Aug. 21, 2021, Chuck Fletcher was the Flyers general manager and Alain Vigneault was the head coach. That same summer, Noah Cates was entering his fourth and final year of U.S. college hockey at the University of Minnesota-Duluth, coming off a season that saw him only play 28 games and manage a meager five goals. The 2017 fifth-round Philadelphia draft pick and the then 28-year-old Couturier were miles apart financially, geo...

*Well the Flyers once again had victory snatched by the hands of defeat or whatever that saying is, dropping last night’s game in overtime after the game-tying goal was disallowed because Owen Tippett doesn’t understand how lines work. RECAP .
*Perhaps you noticed The Big Thing: Tyson Foerster is back with the boys! Carl Grundstrom, thank you for your service. [ BSH ]
*Apparently, before the game, Leon Draisaitl gave Matvei Michkov some sage advice. That’s nice! [ Inquirer ]

After what would have been a game-winning goal from Travis Konecny was called back for offsides with 23 seconds remaining, the Oilers stole an overtime win in Philadelphia by a score of 2-1. While the Oilers dominated for large stretches of the game, the Flyers nearly came away with an impressive win over the back-to-back Western Conference champs, but had to settle for a point on Wednesday night.

The Philadelphia Flyers are hosting Connor McDavid and his band of Edmonton Oilers tonight. The visitors are experiencing a miserable start to their season, like every single year, but it feels different. McDavid and Draisaitl are carrying a bag full of bodies to some wins, but their recent thrashing in a 9-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche has still left a mark.
Can the Flyers take advantage of a weakened Oilers team missing a couple key forwards? Or, will Edmonton keep trying to prove do...

The Flyers got the best showing of the season from their fourth line on Saturday, all without scoring a single goal. So, what's working for them, and can they be the long-term answer?

The Philadelphia Flyers return to action on Wednesday night with a matchup against the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers suffered a 9-1 home loss to the Avalanche on Saturday night and had to come from behind to beat the Blue Jackets on Monday night.
To put it simply, the team that has lost in the Stanley Cup Final in the last two years is struggling mightily right now. They’re without Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, leaving Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to carry even more of the load than they usuall...

There seem to be two schools of thought with the Philadelphia Flyers right now: either fight like hell to stay in the fight, or sort out the major issues, finish where you may, and continue to collect assets so the rebuild isn’t done in half measures. The Flyers’ record of 8-5-2 is smack dab in…

It’s still early on in Rick Tocchet’s first season as Philadelphia Flyers head coach, and while there are still some particulars of his system that still need to be ironed out and perfected. But the one thing that seems entirely clear, even this early, is that his team will be playing in a lot of close games.
Through their first 15 games of the season, the Flyers have already played in nine one-goal games, with a 4-3-2 record in those contests. It’s been unbelievably tight, whether the F...

Owen Tippett started the season like a man possessed, scoring five goals in his first six games of the season. All the questions about his streakiness was at the time in the rearview mirror. Now, it’s been nine games since Tippett has scored a goal, with only one assist in that time. It’s been a dry spell of sorts for the winger who sometimes looks like he’s got speed to burn.
But Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet following Tuesday’s practice said Tippett has to clean up parts of his game in...

The Philadelphia Flyers are having an up-and-down start to the month of November and with mixed results, sometimes some creativity in the lineup is needed. Head coach Rick Tocchet unveiled a new forward line that certainly raised a whole lot of eyebrows amongst the Flyers fan base on practice Tuesday morning.
