On a tough second half of a back-to-back and the Flyers’ fourth game in six days, the Flyers went to Newark and beat the Metropolitan-leading Devils 5-3. They’ve ended a difficult four-game, Thanksgiving week road trip at an impressive 3-1-0 mark, and they now sit squarely in third in the Metro standings.
The basics
First period: 5:18 – Owen Tippett (Christian Dvorak, Trevor Zegras), 12:08 – Simon Nemec (Jesper Bratt, Nico Hischier)

Owen Tippett was sitting on the brink of a milestone, with 99 goals and 199 points in his National Hockey League career entering Saturday’s game against the New Jersey Devils, and it didn’t take long for the Flyers winger to hit both milestones on the same play. Just over five minutes into the opening period, Flyers center Christian Dvorak found Tippett heading towards the net, and Tippett made a nifty move on Devils goaltender Jacob Markstrom to hit the century mark.
A DOUBLE milestone f...

It’s another quick turnaround, as the Flyers are back for the second half of their third back-to-back of the month, and looking to close out the month of November on a high note in tonight’s rematch with the Devils. The first meeting went pretty emphatically the way of the Flyers, but this Devils team is heating back up again, and the Flyers will have a more challenging matchup in front of them than the last time around. We’ll see how they fare here.

After getting swept by Wisconsin the week prior, Michigan State bounced back with two wins against Colgate this week. In the series, Flyers prospect Shane Vansaghi and his new linemates found offensive success, with Vansaghi picking up three primary assists. Fellow prospect Porter Martone had a bit of a quiet series, with just one assist and a goal that was called back.
Vansaghi’s new line shines
Vansaghi began the season on a line centered by Cayden Lindstrom, with Gavin O’Connell a...

The Flyers had a 3-0 lead in the second period, but saw that erased by the end of period two. The dynamic duo of Trevor Zegras and Sam Ersson in the shootout frame was enough as Philadelphia defeated the host New York Islanders 4-3 on Friday afternoon.

Our beloved Philadelphia Flyers are out here playing hockey on Black Friday…but somewhere not in Philadelphia? They’re off to an island to go face the New York Islanders in this classic matchup in which we sort of dread watching. Here’s hoping for nothing too controversial to come out of this game and the Flyers put the sleepy Long Island boys to bed early.

The Flyers wrapped up the Florida leg of their road trip tonight with the third and final matchup of the season against the Panthers. It was a wild game, to be sure, complete with strange breakdowns, unconventional approaches to attempting to create chances, and another huge comeback on the Flyers’ part to come away with a 4-2 win, and ultimately, a win in the season series.

It’s their last game before the holiday, and the next stop on the Flyers’ road trip is in Sunrise, Florida, as they’re set to face off with the Panthers for the third and final time this season. They’ll be hoping to catch the Panthers — who have been finding more middling results so far this season — on one of their off nights, and bounce back from their tough showing on Monday, which saw them shut out by the Lightning. It’s another bit of up and down from the Flyers in what’s been a wild seas...

Trevor Zegras is off to a fantastic start with the Philadelphia Flyers, having scored 21 points in 20 games. This start puts Zegras up there with Peter Forsberg, Danny Briere, Jaromir Jagr, Tony Amonte, and Jeremy Roenick, who all had 20 or more points in their first 20 game...

Fans of the Philadelphia Flyers around the world get to finally breathe a little bit easier ahead of Wednesday night’s collision against the Florida Panthers. Nikita Grebenkin is going to play.
After missing way too many consecutive games and being a healthy scratch back in Philadelphia and to start the road trip Tuesday in Tampa, Grebenkin appears to be back in his spot on the Flyers’ fourth line next to Rodrigo Abols and Garnet Hathaway.

The Philadelphia Flyers are having a season that not many expected. Only some of the most optimistic fans would have thought that they would be battling for a playoff spot as we head into December and looking like a team that certainly deserves their record.
With the team potentially turning a corner on the ice and still with so many prospects that are hopefully going to be banging down the door of the NHL in the coming years, does it mean that the Flyers are going to shift their trade me...

If you look at the Philadelphia Flyers’ statistics through 21 games, you will see a few goose eggs that pop up at you. You expect Sam Ersson and Dan Vladar to have no goals and no assists so far this season. Goaltenders rarely end up on the scoresheet. You might also be surprised that although it’s just been 11 games, defenseman Emil Andrae is also looking for his first goal but does have three helpers. And that Matvei Michkov is still looking for his first game-winning goal of the 2025-26 sea...

The Canadian Thanksgiving was last month, but this week marks the annual Thanksgiving in the U.S. A day marked with family (some of whom you don’t care for), turkey (leftovers of which you don’t care for), and plenty of NFL football (many of the teams you don’t care for). So on this holiday for reflection and appreciation, let’s see what each Flyer player has to be thankful for this season thus far. Some have a bit more to be grateful for than others, but everyone should be looking at the glas...

One of the best defensemen in this era of the NHL is potentially going to be traded and the Philadelphia Flyers are one of the teams who are expected to have some interest.
Quinn Hughes has planted himself at the top of the pile of blueliners across the world and for the Vancouver Canucks, has been a major difference-maker ever since he stepped foot onto the ice at Rogers Arena. But with the team going nowhere but mediocrity and Hughes’s upcoming unrestricted free agency status in 2027, t...

For the entirety of his OHL career, Philadelphia Flyers prospect Jett Luchanko has played on a team that did not surround him with the requisite talent to compete at a high level. This week that changed.
Luchanko has started off strong overall back in the Canadian junior ranks, with 17 points in his first 11 games. However, he’s only scored twice, and his now former team the Guelph Storm still sit seventh in the OHL’s Western Conference. It was shaping up to be another fruitless year for ...

After a pretty exciting week, the Flyers went to Tampa and left without a goal. Brandon Hagel was the star of the game with two goals and an assist, while Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped all 20 shots fired his direction. A sluggish start lingered well beyond the first period, with the Flyers never really finding their offensive game. In the end, the Flyers left Tampa Bay with a 3-0 loss.
