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...
William Eklund's update emerges after suffering an ankle injury
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. Obviously had penalty trouble, one that cost us there at the end. But we have the 5 on 3 and we […]

Carter Yakemchuk scored the go-ahead goal with a power-play one-timer at 13:01 of the third period, and the Ottawa Senators beat the Philadelphia Flyers...
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 ...
*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 ...
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...
An otherwise positive result stained by yet another injury.
The Flyers upped their compete level, scored a power play goal, and still ended up on the wrong side of the scoreboard Thursday night, losing a tough one 2-1 to the Ottawa Senators. Despite their improved efforts, the winless streak is now five games.
The Basics
First period: 10:14- Nick Cousins (Tyler Kleven, Warren Foegle) Second period: 7:46- Matvei Michkov (Trevor Zegras, Travis Konecny) (PPG) Third period: 13:01- Carter Yakemchuk (Claude Giroux, Shane Pinto) (PPG) SOG: 29 (PHI) ...

The Philadelphia Flyers (0-2-2) face the Ottawa Senators (2-1-0) at Canadian Tire Centre on Thursday night in NHL action. How to Watch Flyers vs Senators Philadelphia is still searching for its first win after falling 4-1 to the Tampa Bay…
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...
The Flyers are hitting the next stop on their road trip tonight, arriving in Ottawa for their first matchup of the season against some familiar faces on this Senators squad. They’ve made some more changes to their lineup ahead of this game, and they’ll be hoping that this finally, finally does the trick for them, as they still desperately push for their first win of the season.

The Home Opener is Finally Here!
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...
Colby Cohen and Carter Hutton talked on Daily Faceoff Live about the Flyers and if they are set for lottery contention after their horrible start to 2026-27.
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....
After a shaky start to the season, Philadelphia Flyers GM Danny Briere is turning to 31-year-old winger Michael Bunting as a potential stabilizing presence.
