We brought you the word a few days back that the Philadelphia Flyers are looking to work out a multi-year extension with surprise top-line center Christian Dvorak. Signed to a one-year, $5.4 million deal in the offseason, the 29-year-old has had a strong first season in Philly. Now, insider David Pagnotta is adding more detail to the ongoing negotiations, projecting what a deal might look like for the 10-year NHL veteran. It sounds like three years in that $5.5M range is realistic. That'...
The Washington Commanders were inside the bubble for today’s practice due to high winds in Ashburn, VA. The team is preparing to travel to Philadelphia on Sunday to face the Eagles in the season finale. It’s the holiday season, and that means some players have been dealing with illness over the past few weeks. Last […]
The news conference, Mike Gminski’s first as a 76er, was winding down. And now Gminski, just over in a trade from the Nets that day in January 1988, made a beeline for a rack of balls in the corner of the St. Joe’s gym, where the Sixers practiced at the time. Still in street clothes, he […]

*The Flyers were coming off of a big win over the Canucks on Tuesday night heading into last night’s final game of the calendar year. We’ll put a bow on that win before we pivot to last night’s game. [ PHLY ]
*We’re pivoting begrudgingly because that one was a loss and it was simply not a very good game for the Flyers. What a way to end the year. [ BSH ]
*It’s not all bad news around here though! We got some very good news yesterday as well, as it was announced that Travis Sanheim wi...
The Flyers had some chances, hit some posts and crossbars, and had a goal called back. But overall, the Flyers weren’t the better team on this night, losing 5-1 to Calgary to conclude the calendar year.

We’ve made it folks! 2025 is just about to come to a close, and the Flyers will be sending the year off in Calgary, and hoping that it can be on a high note, as they look to make it a sweep of this back-to-back in Western Canada.

The Nets do not traditionally provide return dates for injured players. They may hint at it, with Jordi Fernandez noting a player is “making progress” or has begun 5-on-5 play. Then, finally, said player won’t show up on the status report for an upcoming game, meaning he’s ready to go. At this point, Haywood Highsmith […]
A year in the life of a baseball team can feel like an eternity. There are times when things happen that I take a mental note of as something that we should remember, for posterity’s sake, only to forget that it happened the very next day. You call it the perils of being a parent, […]
I think we can all agree: Phillies fans are pretty great. Certainly better—more loyal, friendlier, more devoted, more thoughtful— than those miscreants in Queens. And it scarcely needs to be said that we are also recognized for our humility. But everyone has room for improvement. The new year beckons, with fewer than 24 hours remaining […]

The Philadelphia Flyers are off in Vancouver to face a Canucks team that got a little bit run over the last time these two teams collided just over a week ago. No major differences between the rosters or setup, but it is hockey so no one truly knows how this one will play out, despite the Flyers earning a decisive 5-2 win when the Canucks visited them.

The calendar year is almost over, the New Year’s Eve parties are being planned, and people are preparing to make 2026 the best year ever. Well, at least one can hope. And the Philadelphia Flyers are no different. So far, the Flyers have been one of the better (and surprising) stories of the 2025-26 season. Here then are five resolutions that Philadelphia could try to adhere to starting on January 1, particularly if they want to play more than 82 games this season.
Start scoring first

Just a week ago, the Sixers were 16-11 and trending up in the standings. Joel Embiid dropped 39 points in a win over the Indiana Pacers, the most he’d scored since a Game 6 loss against the New York Knicks back in 2024. Paul George recorded a Sixers-high 35 points in a tight road loss […]
This past week, the Flyers have somehow played three games while also having a four-day holiday break. In that stretch, the Flyers went 2-1-0 against three of the worst teams in the Western Conference, with wins over Vancouver and Chicago and a regulation loss against Seattle.
The week started off on the right foot with a pretty dominant 5-2 win over the Canucks, where the new look fourth line of Nikita Grebenkin, Rodrigo Abols, and Carl Grundstrom combined for two goals. The next n...
Continuing my look around the majors to see if any of the players rumored to be on the trade market make sense for the Phillies. Today, I’ll examine St. Louis Cardinals utility man Brendan Donovan. The background Donovan burst onto the scene in 2022, winning a Gold Glove award and finishing third in National League […]
I feel bad for the Philadelphia Eagles defense after this Buffalo Bills game. This was a dominant performance that deserved a comfortable win. This was a cold, ugly game where throwing the ball cleanly was always going to be harder and physicality was going to win out. Against Josh Allen, one of the most physically […]
Philadelphia Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet would come out and completely confirm it, but from the sounds of it Flyers defenseman Travis Sanheim will be on Team Canada’s roster for the upcoming Winter Olympics in Milano. The roster will be officially announced later this week, but, barring a major injury to the player, Tocchet all but guaranteed he’ll be on the club .
During a scrum on Monday in Vancouver, Tocchet was asked a series of questions about returning to Vancouver and facing the...
The big question with the Philadelphia Eagles this week is if they’re going to rest starters or not in their Week 18 game against the Washington Commanders. There appears to be increasing sentiment that the Eagles will indeed prioritize rest despite the fact that the Eagles must do their part to win to have a […]
Commanders links Articles Washington Post (paywall) For the finale, Commanders may turn to third-string QB Josh Johnson again As in Week 17 against the Cowboys, Marcus Mariota may miss the Commanders’ Week 18 matchup with the NFC East champion Eagles on Sunday because of injuries. Coach Dan Quinn said Marcus Mariota did not participate in […]
There are but a few days left in the negotiations to bring Tatsuya Imai stateside through the posting process. His camp has claimed that he has yet to receive a firm offer from anyone, but deadline spur action and his deadline will definitely draw the suitors closer. The Phillies are rumored to be involved in […]
It’s been a heck of a calendar year for the Philadelphia Flyers. One that’s been filled with some acrimony, some controversy, and some hope. But through the last 12 months there have been a handful of things that have shaped how the Flyers started the second half of the 2024-25 season back in January. And how they are currently wrapping up the proverbial first half of the 2025-26 season in better position than many anticipated. Here then, in no particular order, are seven things which defined ...
