The Carolina Hurricanes added some grit with less than an hour to go until the trade deadline, acquiring veteran forward Nicolas Deslauriers from the Philadelphia Flyers , according to Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman. The Flyers will receive a 2027 seventh-round conditional draft pick , per Frank Seravalli, in a deal that brings one of the league’s toughest players to a Metropolitan Division contender.
Deslauriers had quietly been circulating in trade chatter over the past week as ...
After kicking off trade deadline day with a bang, sending Bobby Brink to the Wild in exchange for a really intriguing defense prospect in David Jiricek, the Flyers’ second trade of the day is a more minor one, in comparison.
The Flyers announced this morning that they’ve made a swap of minor league players, having acquired forward Brett Harrison and defenseman Jackson Edward from the Bruins. Harrison, in his third season in the AHL, has brought a bit for them in the way of offense — with ...
The Bobby Brink trade kicked off the Flyers’ Trade Deadline day, and there’s expected to be at least a few more moves in Philadelphia today – namely Rasmus Ristolainen, Nic Deslauriers, and maybe Carl Grundstrom. There could be room for a surprise move or two, though, and it looks like that may come in the form of a goalie acquisition.

Porter Martone keeps impressing. On Thursday night, the Philadelphia Flyers’ 6th overall pick in 2025 scored twice for Michigan State, who defeated Minnesota by a final score of 7-1 to clinch their third Big Ten regular season championship in a row.
Martone opened the scoring just over five minutes into the game, finishing a rush chance with a wicked shot that beat the goaltender cleanly.

When Christian Dvorak was initially signed in the offseason to a one year, $5.4 million dollar deal, some eyebrows were raised. Over five million dollars for a player who has never hit 20 goals, and whose highest point total was 38, seemed a bit steep at the time.
But Daniel Briere and the front office were proved right in their evaluation when Dvorak came out of the gates on fire, serving as the Flyers de-facto 1C, and establishing a great connection with another new arrival in Tre...
The Philadelphia Flyers have made their first move of the NHL trade deadline, buying low on a former sixth-overall pick and giving up a young middle-six winger in the process.
According to multiple sources, the Flyers have traded winger Bobby Brink to the Minnesota Wild and are getting defenseman David Jiricek in return.

The Philadelphia Flyers and Minnesota Wild have pulled off one of the more interesting trades of deadline day, swapping young talent in a straight-up deal. Bobby Brink is headed to the Wild, while David Jiricek is going to the Flyers. Minnesota adds scoring help up front and Philadelphia is taking a swing on a former high-end defense prospect who still carries real upside.

*This will be GMDB’s third trade deadline with the Flyers, and we may be able to glean some things from the last two. [ Inquirer ]
*Along with the Risto rumors there is also a lot of talk of a Nic Deslauriers trade. Which is wild. Do that o...
The Philadelphia Flyers have not made a substantial trade yet this week, as we are now deep into the final 24 hours before the NHL trade deadline on Friday, but they seem to now be getting a whole lot of interest in their top trade chip — even more than just a day ago.
Rasmus Ristolainen is not certain to be moved, since his contract runs through next season and by all reports, the Flyers do not feel like they have to trade the 31-year-old Finnish defenseman, but now it certainly seems li...
Riding high on a three-game winning streak, the Flyers are back on home ice tonight, set to face off against the Utah Mammoth for their final game ahead of tomorrow’s trade deadline. It’s the last game before a potential new normal sets in, depending on how tomorrow plays out, and the Flyers will be looking to make a statement and keep this streak rolling.

The Philadelphia Flyers look to be making some kind of move to their personnel between now and the trade deadline Friday afternoon. Signing an AHL veteran is the tell.
The team is about to sign Lehigh Valley Phantoms veteran Garrett Wilson to a National Hockey League contract. Wilson was placed on waivers Thursday by the Flyers. If he clears (and it’s almost a certainty that he will), then the forward will be signed by the Flyers on Friday. Before the club made an official announcement, S...
While the Rasmus Ristolainen trade rumors were flying, another Flyer was quietly linked to a potential deadline move.
Bobby Brink’s name has come up in passing as someone that the Flyers could dangle as means to improve other positions of need, but until recently, there were no specific discussions taking place that would lead anyone to think that Brink will be gone before the deadline.
But with the deadline a day away, Elliotte Friedman tossed out a theory that Brink cou...
There is endless talk about who the Philadelphia Flyers might trade before Friday’s deadline and what they could potentially get back in a deal. Whether it’s Rasmus Ristolainen, Owen Tippett, or Bobby Brink — a whole lot of Flyers have been talked about leading up to the very important day on the hockey calendar.
But one name that has been under-discussed is veteran forward Nic Deslauriers. And according to a recent report, he is likely going to be traded by the Flyers before the deadline...
Danny Briere has his fingerprints all over this Philadelphia Flyers rebuild — he is the general manager, after all. The former fan favorite has received mixed reviews during his nearly three years at the helm, but he’s set out a clear plan and is following it thus far.
So far this season, the most noteworthy transaction was signing Christian Dvorak to an unnecessary extension.
After overpaying on a one-year deal to convince Dvorak to sign in Philadelphia, the Flyers then bid against ...

The trade action around the NHL is heating up as we approach Friday’s trade deadline. We’ve got a bevy of deals sending large, right-handed defensemen to teams that need them, some shutdown centers have found a home, and a whole smattering of trades still percolating around the continent.
While the Philadelphia Flyers have not gotten themselves involved yet with an actual trade, there are countless rumors and reports about their players. Rasmus Ristolainen is suddenly one of the top defen...
Breaking through the narratives, rating Rasmus Ristolainen's Flyers tenure, to date.
While the trade deadline creeps closer and Rasmus Ristolainen’s name continues to be floated in trade rumors all over the league, one of his main comparables has found a new home.
Tyler Myers has been sent to Dallas in order to join their playoff push, with the Canucks receiving both a 2027 second-round pick and a 2029 fourth-round pick in return. Vancouver will also retain 50% of Myers’ $3-million AAV cap hit on his contract that runs until the end of next season, in order to ship ...
The Philadelphia Flyers struggle to finish, with Christian Dvorak being the only regular center to score a goal in the month of January. They might need to address the position in the offseason-- or let Trevor Zegras have an extended look.
He's missed plenty of time this season, but Rasmus Ristolainen is back as a top-pairing Philadelphia Flyers defenseman, and he's proving to be a serious commodity at this trade deadline. The right-shot blueliner has been terrific in his time back in the lineup the past couple of months and is logging massive ice-time for Philly, culminating in a 27-minute workhorse effort in a win over Toronto Monday night. The Flyers will be charging a high price, though, for any team looking to t...
Coming out of the Olympic break with the playoffs looking like a longshot proposition, it is due time for the Flyers to play younger options, throw the lines in a blender, and try and find some combinations that could work for the future.
Whether it be a Tippett-Zegras-Michkov line that loads up on offence, moving Denver Barkey onto the power play full-time, or a host of other more radical moves that could be made to shake things up, there’s really no limit on what the Flyers can do...
*We’ve got two more days and one more game before the trade deadline, and with the Flyers winning games it’s kinda up in the air what GMDB is going to do. The Flyers are pretty hot right now, which might complicate things a bit. [ Inquirer ]

The NHL trade deadline is fast approaching and in less than 72 hours we’re going to find out whether or not the Philadelphia Flyers were involved in the action or not. Whether general manager Danny Briere made a couple of moves with a focus on the future, or stood pat because the team is suddenly within striking distance of the playoffs and the idea of an eighth consecutive year without postseason hockey in Philadelphia drives him crazy.
The biggest move that could be on the table for the...
They’ve played 60 games and have 22 to go. That’s a possible 44 points available if they were to somehow run the table the last six weeks of the season. That’s probably not happening. However, after losing to Washington 3-1 in their first game after the Olympic break, Philadelphia has managed to beat the Rangers, then eke out victories against the Bruins and, on Monday night, Toronto. That’s six of a possible eight points. It puts them four points out of a wildcard spot heading into Tuesday ni...
The Philadelphia Flyers are going to at least get involved a couple times this week as Friday’s NHL trade deadline approaches. They don’t have a boatload of players to sell, and aren’t in a position to buy as they try to cement a spot in the playoffs, but they will continue planning for the long-term success of this team and building more and more towards that.
One name that could be on the move, as you can tell by just looking at the homepage of Broad Street Hockey dot com, is defenseman...
