A.J. Brown Wants a Trade, But Can Eagles Make it Happen?

Eagles News Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown’s future with the franchise has become a topic of speculation following the team’s wild-card loss to San Francisco. Multiple NFL executives believe the organization could consider moving the 28-year-old during the offseason. Brown finished the 2025 regular season with 78 receptions for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns […]

Flyers show progress in win over Capitals, but bigger challenge lies ahead

The Flyers, hitting the start of the month of February on a four-game losing streak and at the risk of heading into the Olympic break in free fall, managed to pull together a prompt shift in momentum. Picking up a reasonably tidy 4-2 win over their divisional rival Capitals, the Flyers lifted quite a major weight off of their shoulders, but still sit with a reminder that there’s work yet to be done. Overcoming the noise To deliver the understatement of the century, things have not be...

Another Eagles quarterbacks coach candidate emerges

The Philadelphia Eagles are apparently looking for a new quarterbacks coach and Greg Olson is a “name to watch” for that position, according to a report from NFL insider Mike Garafolo. Olson (not to be confused with the former NFL tight end turned broadcaster Greg Olsen) has ties to new Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. […]

Goaltender Dan Vladar becoming Flyers’ unsung hero and leader

Throughout the season, it’s been a three-man race as to who has been the guy the Flyers have gone to all season. For most of the year it was Trevor Zegras. But he’s slowed down a bit on his points pace. Winger Travis Konecny has picked up the slack and now leads the team in points, yet even he’s had some games and moments that he’d like to have back. The one guy that has managed to be even keel most of the way — and been one of the brightest and biggest lights thus far — is goaltender Dan Vlad...

Rick Tocchet talks about extending Matvei Michkov’s shifts in Flyers win

The Philadelphia Flyers earned a feel-good 4-2 win over the Washington Capitals that helped them wash away a whole lot of their ongoing issues. Sure, it doesn’t help that they suffered a brutal stretch that almost cemented them as a non-playoff team, but Tuesday night’s win was perfectly timed after the messy drama between head coach Rick Tocchet and winger Matvei Michkov spilled into the national spotlight. The main gripe surrounding this drama was the lack of minutes given to Michkov an...

What do you think of the Phillies’ Playoff Odds?

FanGraphs has published their projected playoff odds, which means the season draws near. Soon we will have real baseball to bicker and banter over between ourselves. But in the meantime, we can argue over playoff odds. The Phillies are projected by FanGraphs to have a 65.7% chance to make the playoffs, and an 18.9% chance […]

Wednesday Morning Fly By: Finally, winners again

*After what felt like several weeks of totally crappy hockey, the Flyers took on the Caps on home ice last night and won a god dang hockey game. RECAP ! *Prior to the game, GM Danny Briere spoke with the media about all of The Stuff going on with Tocchet and Michkov. Nothing groundbreaking here but definitely something Briere needed to do to get a handle on this thing. [ BSH ] *Some people are asking if any of this was even a big deal at all. [ NBC Sports Philly ] *Whatever you ...

Takeaways: Flyers outlast tired Capitals with late power play goal

A late goal on the power play by Jamie Drysdale was the difference in the Flyers’ 4-2 win. The basics First Period: 5:56 – Owen Tippett (Travis Sanheim, Matvei Michkov) Second Period: 4:45 – Carl Grundstrom (Nic Deslauriers, Rasmus Ristolainen), 8:12 – Aliaksei Protas (SHG) (Anthony Beauvillier) Third Period: 2:40 – Anthony Beauvillier (Justin Sourdif, Trevo...

Flyers GM Danny Briere comments on Tocchet-Michkov controversy

The Philadelphia Flyers might be playing a game on Tuesday but all anyone can talk about is the potential crisis regarding head coach Rick Tocchet and winger Matvei Michkov. So much so that general manager Danny Briere had to come and clear the air publicly. As the rumors started to swirl that there is potentially a massive conflict between Michkov and Tocchet bubbling up to the surface, and just about everyone had their take on how the Flyers should handle the situation, the team acted q...

Flyers prospect Christian Kyrou to replace Denver Barkey at AHL All-Star Classic

The AHL All-Star Classic is just about a week away, and with the Phantoms’ representative in Denver Barkey remaining on the Flyers’ roster as the NHL roster freeze in advance of the Olympic break has come and gone, another one of the team’s exciting prospects has been called upon to replace him. Christian Kyrou gets the nod With Barkey unavailable — and likely the next most natural option in Alex Bump still out with injury — the call was made to select Phantoms defenseman Christian K...

2026 Pro Bowl Games discussion

The Eagles had more than a few Pro Bowlers last season that ended in a Super Bowl victory, but weren’t able to participate given their preparation for the big game. This year, however, four were able to make their way to San Francisco to take part in the flag football game. The game will get […]

Flyers vs. Capitals: How to watch, lineups, and gamethread

And just like that, the final week before the break has arrived. It’s certainly been an exciting lead-up to it (for better or worse), but the Flyers will be hoping against all hope that they can get the ball rolling here and find a way to hit the break on a bit of a high. And there’s no better chance to get that started than with a matchup against another divisional rival, as the Capitals come to town. Puck drop:  7:00 p.m. How to watch/listen: 📺: NBCSP 📻: 93.3 WMMR Pregame reading ...

NFL Mock Draft 2026: Eagles 7-round simulation, Version 3.0

I do this simulation column every year to sort of track the changes in Eagles needs, players draft stocks, and possible pick movement. We are months and months away from the draft, so things are definitely subject to change with exhibition games, private workouts, interviews, and the combine still ahead. But as it stands today, […]

3 Flyers who need the upcoming Olympic break so badly

The Flyers will be closing up shop for a few weeks when the season takes a roughly three-week break for the Winter Olympics in Italy. A few Flyers — including Travis Sanheim and Dan Vladar — will be making the trip across the pond to represent their respective countries. But for other Flyers, the break can’t come soon enough. Philadelphia’s winning percentage the last month has almost mirrored their power play efficiency. And that could mean nearly everyone will be happy to get away for a...
