We’re close to the quarter-pole of the season, and already the Flyers are out of the gate a little bit better than some anticipated. It’s an extremely tight batch in the standings in the Eastern Conference, with a two-game winning streak possibly putting you into the top three of the Metropolitan. Or a two-game streak of regulation losses putting you near the cellar. Philadelphia has been good in some respects but needing to improve a lot in others. And while the Flyers are being praised for s...

The Philadelphia Flyers and Ottawa Senators have made a one-for-one swap for defenseman and it makes one team younger but with less certainty, and the other one with some stability in the blue line depth chart.
Announced by the team on Monday afternoon, the Flyers have traded defenseman Dennis Gilbert to the Senators in exchange for defenseman Maxence Guenette. It’s a blockbuster, we know.
TRADE ALERT: We’ve acquired defenseman Maxence Guenette from Ottawa in exchange for defenseman ...

The Flyers are back from their quick road trip over the weekend, during which they split their back-to-back against the Blues and Stars, and after a surely much-needed day off on Sunday, they’re right back on the ice for a good practice, the first in their runway up to their next game on Thursday. And while the Flyers are working with some of the usual headlines coming out of the practice session — the shuffling of some of the forward lines , as well as an absence for Cam Yor k which is, it se...

The Phantoms closed out their first three-in-three weekend of the season yesterday in Hershey, and were looking to exact a bit of revenge after a gutting regulation loss in Saturday’s meeting. And it was a rematch that was going well enough for them, for a time, anyway — after a tightly played first period, the Phantoms were able to finally break through early in the second, grabbing the lead and doing some nice work to hold onto it, at least until things started to go sideways on them, and an...

It was a middling week for the Flyers, going 1-1-1 through three games–though truthfully, perhaps it could’ve been 2-1-0 had a certain play not been called offsides. Alas, the record is the record, and we’ll start with the bad news: the Flyers have fallen out of a wildcard spot, with the two New York teams ahead of them. The good news is that the Eastern Conference is still in such a state of flux that, by the end of next week, the could stumble right back into a playoff spot. That’s important...

The Phantoms’ winning streak come to a screeching halt last night on home ice against the Bears, as the Phantoms worked through a hard-fought game only to have it ended in heartbreaking fashion.
The Phantoms, despite outshooting the Bears more than 2-1 in the first period, couldn’t break through, and had themselves beaten by turnovers and soft plays, falling into a 2-0 hole in the second. But the third period saw their luck beginning to break for them, as Denver Barkey was able to finally...

The Michigan State Spartans returned to action this weekend with a two-game series against another Big Ten opponent; Notre Dame. Porter Martone would open the series with his first multi-goal game at the collegiate level, and followed it up with another tally on Saturday night.
On Friday night, the Spartans took control from the first drop of the puck. They found their way into the offensive zone with ease, created chaos on the forecheck, and took a ton of shots at the net. In the opening...

Coming off an emphatic shootout win over the St. Louis Blues, the Philadelphia Flyers now travel further south and take on the Dallas Stars. It’s a much bigger and better opponent in this second half of a back-to-back, so the Flyers might have their work cut out for them.

Last night’s game, kicking off the first leg of their first three-in-three of the season, was a big one for the Phantoms, as they were able to overcome a bit of a dicey start on the way to taking down the visiting Springfield Thunderbirds by a score of 7-3, and extending their winning streak to a season high five games. It was a sound effort across the board, as each of their forward lines was able to contribute at least one goal on the night, but the most notable performance of the night came...

Friday night treated us to a whole lot of Philadelphia Flyers prospects proving their worth in their respectable leagues all over the world. But one that popped out as a single performance, was Jett Luchanko making sure everyone was reminded about what he can do and how he can just take over a game in the OHL.
Much has been written about Luchanko and his situation. He’s played in the NHL probably earlier than he should have and the expectation was raised but the freshly-turned 19-year-old...

After a tough loss back on home ice on Wednesday, the Flyers are hitting the road for a quick two-game road trip. Tonight, they’ll be facing off against a struggling Blues squad for the first game of their back-to-back (and what’s to be their first against the Blues in the span of a week) and they’ll be looking to get the ball rolling early, gaining back some ground and, what’s more, making a strong impression on their annual Fathers’ Trip.

Another week, another full docket of exciting happenings to dig into for Flyers prospects near and far. Let’s get right into it.
The News of the Week
Not much doing in the news department this week, but the one big piece of news is that Ethan Samson has been medically cleared and assigned to the Phantoms, as he’s ready to get back in action for the first time since taking an injury during training camp. It’s not certain yet whether he’ll be good to get in immediately this weekend, bu...

Tyson Foerster returned to the lineup for Wednesday night’s game against the Edmonton Oilers, and Philadelphia Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet put him back together with his usual linemates of Noah Cates and Bobby Brink.
However, Tocchet decided to mix up the other lines for that one rather than try to build on the chemistry that some of the other forwards have built. That didn’t turn out so well as the Flyers went long stretches without much offensive pressure against Edmonton, and Tocche...

In an 82-game (soon to be 84-game) NHL season, a 13-game sample size is a largely insignificant blip on the radar in the grand scheme. But for the Philadelphia Flyers, a 13-game sample size was all it took for the club’s famously traumatized fan base to declare a state of emergency.
Matvei Michkov, the Flyers’ prized Russian winger and face of their rebuild, looked like a shell of himself to start the campaign. The 20-year-old, less than a year removed from logging 26 goals and 63 points ...

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...

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...

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.
