The 23-year-old fell awkwardly into the boards after being hit by Philadelphia Flyers […] The post Senators dealt brutal William Eklund injury update appeared first on ClutchPoints .

Flyers Prospect Report: Gaucher delivers, Murtagh gets rolling

Another week, another round of prospect happenings to recap. The schedules are finally starting to pick up, and that leaves us with, as they say, a whole lot to unpack. Let’s get into it. The News of the Week We’ll kick this off by getting the bad news out of the way: after a decent start to his season with London, Maksim Sokolovskii is going to be sidelined for the foreseeable future. Officially, he’s week-to-week with a lower-body injury, but hopefully he’s able to get back to acti...

3 reasons Owen Tippett could finally break out for the Flyers

As they are in the early stages of a new season, there’s a bit more hope for the Philadelphia Flyers this year than at any point in the last decade. Unless you count the pandemic-era playoffs which had them win a playoff round. Other than that, the Flyers entered the season with high hopes. And while expectations for Tyson Foerster, Porter Martone, Matvei Michkov and Trevor Zegras were high less than a week ago, only Michkov and Foerster have registered a goal of the foursome five games in. As...

The Flyers remain winless after a 2-1 loss in Ottawa. They’re 0-3-2 and last place in the Metro. “The compete was there,” said head coach Rick Tocchet after the game. “Guys really worked hard.

The Flyers finally have something to build on after their brutal start

The Philadelphia Flyers put up their best effort of the young season on Thursday night in Ottawa, but it still wasn’t enough as they fell 2-1 in the Senators’ home opener. While saying it was their best effort may not mean much given how poorly the first four games went, the Flyers were legitimately the better team at 5-on-5 for large portions of the loss. They killed off four penalties in the first period, controlled play in the second, but couldn’t get the forecheck going until late in ...

Friday Morning Fly By: Still winless

*The Flyers made some pretty major changes heading into last night’s game against the Senators, and they were… they were really something. [ BSH ] *And, if we’re being honest, we’re getting a little weary of all of this lineup juggling. [ BSH ] *Notably, too, it saw Trevor Zegras moved over to the wing, and we’d been kind of wondering how long it would be before they pulled the trigger on that move. [ BSH ] *Anyway, all of those changes did bring a bit more spark for the Flyers ...

David Jiricek showed more of what he could be for the Flyers

As we are quickly learning during the first five games of the 2026-27 Philadelphia Flyers, it was never going to be perfect. Whether we want to attribute that little notion to the team now owning a 0-3-2 record to start their season or some players not playing up to the same level we just saw them play last year, it’s all the same. But more specifically, we knew it was going to be an interesting journey with David Jiricek. The 22-year-old defender just played a game against the Senators i...

Arber Xhekaj becoming trade target of Metropolitan team

Some teams around the NHL have not gotten off to the starts they'd hoped for, and are already looking to make changes. We saw the Philadelphia Flyers sign unrestricted free agent Michael Bunting earlier this week to address their forward group.  But as we've also mentioned, the blueline is something the Flyers are also looking to bolster.  David Pagnotta reported on the DFO Insider that Philly has had an eye on Montreal Canadiens enforcer Arber Xhekaj.  Arber Xhekaj is a guy the...

Michael Bunting eager to make Flyers debut against Senators

Michael Bunting wasn’t expecting it would take this long to be back with a National Hockey League club this season. But tonight he suits up for the Philadelphia Flyers after signing a one-year contract with the team earlier this week . It might not be the solution a lot of Flyer fans are looking for as Philadelphia is still seeking its first victory. “Yeah it’s been a long summer to say the least, something I don’t ever want to go through again,” Bunting said Thursday after the game day s...

Moving Trevor Zegras back to wing is an unfortunate necessity of the Flyers’ slow start

Nothing is working right now for the Philadelphia Flyers. Rick Tocchet has the line blender out in full force, for better or worse (mostly worse), and that continued with the biggest shakeup of the season at Thursday’s morning skate. We dug into the Flyers’ lineup changes a bit earlier, and one of the most notable changes is moving Trevor Zegras back to wing. Zegras was effective late last season down the middle, even showing that he has the potential to be the Flyers’ first-line cen...

Philadelphia Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet has been searching the wilderness for some consistent lines that he could put out and lead to somewhat success. But with the team now with a 0-2-2 record to start the season, it appears that he is already hitting the panic button and going for the nuclear option when it comes to the lineup the Flyers will put on the ice. Ahead of Thursday night’s matchup against the Senators in Ottawa, Tocchet unveiled a lineup that provided honest-to-God shock....
