Travis Konecny scored a hat trick, and Dan Vladar made some great saves to keep Philadelphia in it, but in the end the Flyers had too many passengers on this night in a 5-3 loss to host Columbus on Wednesday evening.
The basics
First period: 0:38 – Charlie Coyle (Mathieu Olivier, Zach Werenski), 9:03 – Travis Konecny (Cam York, Noah Juulsen), 19:40 – Kirill Marchenko (Zach Werenski, Adam Fantilli) Second period: 1:58 – Erik Gudbranson (Cole Sillinger, Charlie Coyle) Third period: 4:0...
After a quick trip back home on Monday — which ended in a rough shutout loss to the Islanders — the Flyers will be hoping that they can tap into a bit more of the success they found on their last road trip, as they head out for a mid-week back-to-back. The first stop will take them to Columbus tonight, where they’ll face off against a close divisional rival in the Blue Jackets, who are gaining ground on the Flyers in the standing, and doing it fast.

Our long regional nightmare is over: Dan Vladar is back.
The Philadelphia Flyers will have their starting goaltender back for Wednesday night’s game in Columbus, Rick Tocchet confirmed this morning. Vladar had been practicing with the team over the past week, and he’s finally ready to get back between the pipes.

The Philadelphia Flyers are floundering and the reality of them finishing out of the playoffs but not being bad enough to get a top 10 draft pick is starting to creep into the mind of every fan. Naturally, that then comes with thoughts about what they can do to either rescue the season or look towards the future with some trades before the deadline in March.

With Flyers coach Rick Tocchet critcizing him last night, and in a bit of a funk offensively, has winger Trevor Zegras hit the wall this season? And if so, why?
The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off one of their most disappointing efforts of the season. After a big 7-3 win in Colorado against the best team in the league, they were shut out and failed to generate many scoring chances as they returned home against the Islanders on Monday night.
Not many Flyers players stuck out in a positive way, but Matvei Michkov did look like himself again and was moved up to the top line in the third period. That was just a temporary measure, though, based on ...
After the Philadelphia Flyers dropped a crucial game against the New York Islanders Monday night, head coach Rick Tocchet was not trying to be careful or gentle with his words. He was asked how Trevor Zegras has been performing as of late and he let it rip.
The Flyers came into Monday night’s game as a high-pressure situation. If the were able to secure a win in regulation, they would suddenly find themselves back in the tightly contested playoff race with some solid footing as we head in...
The Flyers are on the downswing again.
So much of this first half and change of the season has been made up of pretty dramatic peaks and valleys, a whiplashing that the team is still working at figuring out how to tamp down.
The Flyers entered last night’s game on a high — just about as much of a high as possible, after delivering handily the league’s best team their sixth regulation loss of the season (and just their second on home ice) — and they had a chance to prove that they are...
The Islanders rebounded from a blah road trip and a worse return home by shutting out the Flyers — with a goal from each special team! — but the most interesting news of the day was confirmation that they were making a trade…with the {plugs nose} Rangers, of all teams. They acquired pending UFA defenseman […]
*Back from a nice little extended road trip, the Flyers were hoping to capitalize on the momentum from a big win over the Avalanche to close out that trip. [ Inquirer ]
*The Flyers were also set to get a bit of a boost for that game, as Rasmus Ristolainen got back into the lineup. [ BSH ]
*But instead of a statement game building on a strong ending to the road trip, the Flyers instead delivered a real stinker. [ BSH ]

The Flyers were back in action tonight on home ice, facing off against the Islanders and looking to build on the momentum from a largely successful road trip. The Flyers certainly came into this one with some momentum, but failed to keep that rolling, and found themselves struggling to get their offense going on the way to a 4-0 shutout at the hands of a tough divisional opponent.
The Basics
First period: 14:29- Jean-Gabriel Pageau (Cizikas, Pelech)SHG Second period: 5:41- Mathew Bar...
There were some lineup swaps tonight with Cal Ritchie (lower body injury) and Simon Holmstrom (illness) out. Max Tsyplakov and Marc Gatcomb drew into the lineup, giving both of them an opportunity to make an impression after a tough game for the Islanders against Buffalo. The Islanders bounced back tonight in Philadelphia, with JG Pageau […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are back home and just in time for snow to cover a whole portion of the continent, creating some international chaos and misery. Well, that is also about having to face the New York Islanders — a matchup that we have come to know and despise as two mediocre teams bonking each other on the head.

It appears that some reinforcements are finally on the way for the Flyers. After missing just under two weeks and six games for them with an upper-body injury, all signs are pointing to defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen returning to the lineup tonight for the Flyers’ matchup with the visiting Islanders. The change isn’t wholly locked in just yet, as Rick Tocchet told media after the pregame skate that the decision will be made to slide him back into the lineup in place of Noah Juulsen, so long as ...
There were more than a few positives which came from the three-game road trip last week. The power play showed signs of life. Denver Barkey had a great game against Colorado — so did Matvei Michkov. Aside from a horrid miscue, they would’ve walked away with all six possible points. But perhaps nothing was more revealing in Vegas, Utah, and Colorado than the play of Sam Ersson.
In the two games which bookended the trek, Ersson had a save percentage over .900. It marked the first time he ha...
The Philadelphia Flyers are starting to turn the corner in their rebuild. The veterans are still contributing enough, role players are reaching their primes, and several young players are taking steps forward.
A lot of important decisions have already been made by Danny Briere and Keith Jones, but the most crucial moves are yet to come. The Flyers still don’t have the top-end talent at center that they need to contend, nor do they have the depth to make up for that.
Briere & Co. have...

The Islanders will try to rediscover their game, or at least their look, with a visit to Philadelphia tonight. The Flyers are just two points back with a game in hand, coming off a potential “statement” victory in Colorado. That third position in the Metro the Isles currently (and tenuously) hold has become more prominent […]
*The Flyers closed out their road trip in Colorado on Friday, and there was some pretty notable shuffling of the defensive pairs that happened going into it, in case you missed it. [ BSH ]
*Owen Tippett is one of the more prominent names coming up in, at the very least, trade hypotheticals, but the Flyers need to exercise some real caution in how they approach any potential moves to ship him out. [ BSH ]
