2 trades the Flyers can make with the Canadiens

It’s August. We’re in the middle of the most dead period on the hockey calendar. Sure, Nikita Grebenkin got re-signed so there is at least something related to the Philadelphia Flyers to talk about, but we’re firmly in a time where we are just sitting here and waiting and thinking about training camp starting in over a month. So, why not think of some possible transactions? The Flyers might not make some trades before the season starts, but there could certainly be something going on...

Flyers make contract decision on RFA Nikita Grebenkin

Maksim Sokolovskii would like everyone to know he’s very strong

This offseason has been all about Philadelphia Flyers fans wanting to see workout videos from one particular player so that he can bounce back from a disappointing sophomore season. It’s all we really care about as we’re still over a month away from training camp opening up. But what about a different young player in the Flyers organization getting his offseason workouts on video and then shared to social media? The Flyers’ selection of 6-foot-8 defenseman Maksim Sokolovskii at 27th overa...

Thursday Morning Fly By: 56 days of silence remain

*Remember when Claude Giroux wore number 56? Before he became a legend? Good times. Anyhoo, winning shootouts was a big part of the Flyers’ relative success last season, and this upcoming season there are a few more guys besides Trevor Zegras who might be able to help. [ BSH ] *We’re not very far from the aforementioned upcoming season — 56 days, in fact! — and there are still quite a few outstanding questions that need answering. By someone. [ Inquirer ] *One thing that’s g...

3 Flyers who should get more opportunity in the shootout

If you were to look at the all-time shootout goal leader for the Flyers, it probably wouldn’t surprise you it’s Claude Giroux with 30. Next up is his longtime partner on the ice in Jakub Voracek with 15. Sean Couturier (14), current Flyers general manager Danny Briere (12) and Mike Richards (11) round out the top five. Giroux hasn’t played with Philadelphia since March 2022. Voracek hasn’t since the end of the 2020-21 season. Briere? Well since 2012-13 when Philadelphia used one of their compl...

Wednesday Morning Fly By: 57 days ’til opening

*Decided counting down to preseason is dumb. We will now be counting down to opening night, which Alexa tells me is 57 days from today. Do not fact check this. Anyhoo, BSH continues to be the best website on earth and as such have looked into how much worse (or better!) the Flyers will be based on their Wins Above Replacement. [ BSH ] *Last year on opening night, Alex Bump and Denver Barkey were not on the roster. This year, they plan for that to be different. [ NBC Sports Philly ] *...

How much WAR did the Flyers add and lose this offseason?

There has been an undying desire for people that analyze hockey, to summarize a player’s impact with one single number. Something you can point to and see whether or not a player actually did a lot of what contributed to their team winning games, or that they are actually a detriment to the team and shouldn’t be playing as much as they are (or at all). Obviously, in baseball we have WAR (Wins Above Replacement) and that is a sport that is a little bit easier to measure considering the spe...

5 Flames Takes: Have Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost ever been worth more?

Entering the 2025-26 season, Joel Farabee’s position within the Calgary Flames organization was … well, tenuous. Acquired from the Philadelphia Flyers midway through the 2024-25 campaign, Farabee finished the year with just three goals and six points in 31 games with the Flames, totals he described as “embarrassing” in his season-ending exit interview. And with…

Flyers prospect Jack Murtagh looking to rebound from rough freshman season

The Flyers certainly made some noise in the second round of last year’s draft, making a whopping four selections and leaning heavily into a particular archetype of player in that range, snapping up a group which collectively brings a good amount of size and energy, but also largely offered their fair share of promise of contributions on the offensive side as well. The Flyers got away with their handful of lottery tickets, and while each in that group would remain to some degree a longer term p...

[ BSH ] *We are already 1/5th of the way through our summertime 25 Under 25, and up next at number 20 is one of the 2025 draft picks who didn’t really score as much as you’d like in his first year at college. ...
