*The Flyers decided to try and win a game by scoring only one single goal and turns out that’s a bad strategy. Power play stinks. Sitting on leads stinks. Game stunk! Recap !
*Travis Konecny left the game with a reported upper body injury. Hard to say what actually happened there, but it’ll stink if it’s serious! [ BSH ]
*It was a nice homecoming for our old pal Scooty Loots, who got a nice little ovation when he wa announced at the XBox last night. [ Inquirer ]

Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 2-1 overtime win over the Philadelphia Flyers, which improved the Maple Leafs’ record to 21-15-7. On the team gutting out a tight, low-scoring game: Yeah, it was a tight game at five-on-five. There was not a lot going on, to be honest with you, either way. I […]

Philadelphia Flyers forward Travis Konecny’s game was cut short on Thursday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs. His absence became apparent when, after finishing the second period and heading down the tunnel at intermission with his teammates, he was missing from the bench to begin the third period, and it was later confirmed that he would not return for the remainder of the game.

Coming into this season, no one really expected the Philadelphia Flyers to be a top 10 team in the NHL by the time the calendar flipped to 2026. But now, they find themselves with the seventh-highest points percentage in the league and are staying on top of the pile of teams in the Eastern Conference vying for a playoff spot.
After all, they were a team that was truly just starting their rebuild less than three years ago, after they fired general manager Chuck Fletcher and brought in thei...
The Philadelphia Flyers are so back. After demolishing the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night in the most entertaining game of the season so far, the feeling surrounding this team feels impenetrable. The dark cloud looming over this current rebuild that the front office is pursuing, has once again been waved away to briefly see some immaculate sunshine.
Cutter Gauthier was traded away to the Ducks because he didn’t want to play for the Flyers after they drafted him fifth overall. It’s a story...

The Philadelphia Flyers took care of business at home on Tuesday night against the Anaheim Ducks, skating their way to a 5-2 victory over their cross-country rivals. They did all of that without Matvei Michkov, who missed the game due to a foot issue.
Michkov took a friendly fire pass off his skate late in the third period of Saturday afternoon’s win in Edmonton. It was still bothering him on Tuesday with some swelling, but his X-rays came back negative.
Tocchet says Michkov had an x...
The Philadelphia Flyers have reached the half-way point of their season and have posted a 22-12-7 record, good for third in the Metropolitan Division. Despite the team's success this season, GM Daniel Briere is still thinking long term, which includes ongoing trade conversations involving defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen. According to Daily Faceoff's Anthony Di Marco the Flyers have Ristolainen available on the trade market. The towering right-handed blueliner hasn't lived up to expectation...
Fresh off the Christian Dvorak five-year extension, it sure sounds like there’s going to be more business in the coming weeks for the Philadelphia Flyers.
This time, it’s his linemate Trevor Zegras who’s at the center of those discussions. Zegras, in his press availability prior to Tuesday’s win over the Anaheim Ducks, seemed like a guy who was quite intent on re-signing in Philadelphia.
“It’s cool to see somebody (Dvorak’s) age around 29 decide that this is the place tha...

The Philadelphia Flyers are halfway through the 2025-26 season. They have 22 wins through the first 41 games. Last season it took them 48 games to get their twenty-second win. So far, they’ve probably exceeded the expectations of even the most hopeful fan, despite having a terrible power play, giving up the first goal far more often than not, and relying on a goaltender who played all of 30 games last year. Having said all that, there have been some surprises over the first half. And there’s b...
Matvei Michkov missed Tuesday’s game against Anaheim with an injured foot. But on Wednesday he took the optional skate with fellow Flyers winger Denver Barkey. And while the duo got some work and reps in, Michkov took it upon himself to teach Barkey how to execute a “Michigan.”
The three-minute video clip, shot from just behind one of the nets, sees Barkey and Michkov taking a few shots each into the empty net. But about 15 seconds into the clip, Michkov attempts a “Michigan,” roofing the...
The Philadelphia Flyers took down the Anaheim Ducks inside a raucous arena in South Philadelphia on Tuesday night. Cutter Gauthier opened the scoring, but Trevor Zegras and the Flyers got the last laugh in a 5-2 win.
Unfortunately, the Flyers didn’t come away from the game unscathed, with both Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale leaving due to injury after a pair of questionable — at best — hits.
The hit by Jansen Harkins on Brink may have been clean, but the shorter forward got hit up hi...
Despite the ultimate outcome, last night was a tough one for the Flyers. Coming away with a big win over a budding rival is a big positive, but with it came the loss of both Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale to injury. Now, there’s no word just yet on the severity of these injuries or on whether they’ll mean that either of them will miss significant time. All we can say at the moment is that the initial impressions were not great, particularly with Drysdale, and it feels like an apt time to check...
On January 7th in 2010, FSN Pittsburgh producer Lowell MacDonald Jr. withheld a definitive replay from the NHL during a late second period Simon Gagne goal review. Absent the authoritative angle officials deemed the video evidence inconclusive and ruled no goal.
After play resumed, prohibiting a reversal of the incorrect call, the angle was aired making clear that the Philadelphia Flyers should
After Tuesday night’s 5-2 win over the Ducks, the Flyers sit in third place in the Metropolitan Division with 51 points in 41 games thus far. With a 22-12-7 record, the Flyers are on a 102-point pace — a pretty remarkable pace considering the preseason expectations of this team. Their point percentage of .621 is good for third in the entire Eastern Conference, and sixth in the entire National Hockey League.
The teams ahead of them? Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, Tampa Bay, and Carolina. Al...

Everything was set up perfectly and Trevor Zegras took full advantage. As his former team, the Anaheim Ducks, made their way to Philadelphia to face the Flyers, multiple things were in place for the star forward to get some revenge against the team that gave up on him before he even reached his prime.
The Ducks were heavily limping as they entered the doors of the Xfinity Mobile Arena. Before Tuesday night, they lost their last six straight games and last earned a win all the way back on ...
The New Jersey Devils hit rock bottom tonight. They got blown out 8-4 by the Colorado Avalanche on October 28. They had an epic meltdown against the Philadelphia Flyers in a 6-3 loss on November 22. They lost 4-1 to a terrible Bruins team that was missing David Pastrnak and Charlie MacAvoy on December 6. […]
On what would’ve been Flyers founder Ed Snider’s 93rd birthday, former Duck Trevor Zegras scored twice as Philadelphia won 5-2. The game was costly as the Flyers lost winger Bobby Brink and defenseman Jamie Drysdale to rather questionable hits.

First period: 4:15 – William Gauthier (Jackson LaCombe, Troy Terry) (PPG), 10:22 – Trevor Zegras (Christian Dvorak, Travis Konecny), 14:23 – Trevor Zegras (Cam York, Sean Couturier) (PPG) Second period: 1:15 – Cam York (Nikita Grebe...
A right-shot defenceman could be available ahead of the March 6 trade deadline. On Tuesday, Daily Faceoff’s Anthony Di Marco reported that Philadelphia Flyers’ defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen could be available before the trade deadline, albeit the Flyers aren’t actively shopping him.
