The Philadelphia Flyers aren’t shopping for a blockbuster, but they are clearly shopping for help down the middle. After moving out multiple centers over the past year and watching their bottom six go stale at times, the front office’s next priority is pretty straightforward. They want to find another center who can stabilize the lineup and keep the team’s playoff push from getting wobbly.
The immediate tell is how much attention is landing on depth roles. When your fourth line is figh...

On Tuesday night against Montreal, Rasmus Ristolainen suited up for the first time this season for Philadelphia. He delivered a devastating but clean hit, and seemed to tell anyone within earshot or watching the game from afar that he was back. And while the hit didn’t alter the eventual outcome of the game, “double nickels” (as Trevor Zegras called him) made a very good first impression of what’s to come.
The Flyers snapped a three-game winless streak with the regulation win. But it also...

Philadelphia Flyers winger Tyson Foerster is currently out with an upper-body injury but we just got some even worse news.
Announced by the team on Wednesday morning, after combing through their options going forward in his injury recovery, the decision was made for Foerster to undergo surgery. A successful surgery took place on Monday but now, the recovery timeline has been extended to five months.

Starting the day with a chance to potentially move into first place in the Atlantic division, the Montreal Canadiens were in action against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Bell Centre on Tuesday night. Unfortunately, they may have been a little late to arrive to that game mentally, as they fell behind 3-1 after two periods before coming on strong in the third. Those strong 20 minutes weren’t enough, as an empty netter would seal a 4-1 victory for the Flyers.
Dan Vladar stepped up for the F...

The Flyers made it to the next stop on their road trip, heading up to Montreal for their second matchup of the season against the Canadiens, and were able to take a 2-0 lead in the season series, and stop their winless streak at three games, as they delivered a solid showing just about from top to bottom and cruised to a 4-1 win over the Habs.
The Basics
First period: 19:00- Alexandre Texier (Evans, Anderson). 19:39- Carl Grunstrom (Tippett, Couturier) Second period: 6:26- Trevor Zeg...
I’m not sure about these defence pairings Martin St-Louis has come up with, but I suppose we’ll have to see how they do.
First period
Jayden Struble gets caught up ice on the first shift, and Fowler has already had to face one transition rush.
Cole Caufield is given about one-third of the offensive zone all to himself, but Dan Vladar saves the situation.
The checking is tight right now. It’s like watching five fencing matches taking place at once.

The Flyers are back at it on the road again tonight in Montreal, as they look to snap their three-game losing streak and begin putting together a bit more in the way of positive momentum. And with some changes made to the lineup and some shuffling done with the forward lines, the Flyers are looking for anything that can bring them that extra bit of jump to draw them closer to that aim.

Since the Flyers opened the season, it feels like they’ve managed to shuffle their forward line combinations once a week. That’s not exactly shocking, given that Rick Tocchet has been trying to get a look at as many new units as possible to see what works in his first year as head coach, but it has been a frequent occurrence nonetheless.
This morning, ahead of their matchup against the Canadiens, the lines got tossed in the blender once again following back-to-back shootout losses to the...
The Flyers held their morning practice in Montreal prior to facing the Canadiens tonight, and by the looks of it, they could be scrambling a few lines, including one that might make a few people happy. Here’s what they were rolling with at the skate:

It’s that time of year again, and with that we here at BSH have decided to take the 12 Days of Christmas and change it around a bit. Here then, is what we hope a dozen of the Flyers (or their coaching staff) receive this holiday season before they head out West and begin the gauntlet to and after the Winter Olympics.

The Philadelphia Flyers walked through the quicksands of increasingly tough opponents last week and proceeded to do everything that they are known to do this season. Nothing major was figured out — there were no breakthroughs or discoveries that have us all giddy at the thought of going through more of this campaign. It was the Flyers trying to play Rick Tocchet-style low-event hockey against some of the NHL’s best teams and getting some loser points out of their efforts.

Brady Tkachuk is not on the trade market, but that clearly hasn’t stopped speculation from bubbling up around the Ottawa Senators captain. During a recent discussion, analyst Colby Cohen, speaking on Snow the Goalie: A Flyers Podcast , made a surprising statement, suggesting that if Tkachuk ever does leave Ottawa, the Philadelphia Flyers would be a team he would “seriously look at.”

According to Cohen, the connection goes beyond ...

It was fun while it lasted, that moment atop the East (by points) on Saturday afternoon before the Hurricanes swept their weekend back-to-back with the Flyers, who also earned points in each by making it to overtime. With a couple of more games played than several peers, Isles have just one game over a five-game […]
The Carolina Hurricanes won their third straight shootout game as they outlasted the Philadelphia Flyers, 3-2 on Sunday night at the Lenovo Center. The win allowed Carolina to sweep the back-to-back and home-and-home series. The Canes now have a 21-9-2 record as they sit three points ahead of the second place New York Islanders in […]
The Flyers were down 2-0, showed some moxie and character to tie the game up 2-2 late in the game, but lost their second consecutive shootout to Carolina 3-2.

When the Flyers announced that Cam York would miss another short stretch of time with an upper-body injury on December 4, it seemed like the most likely outcome was that the team would just reinsert Yegor Zamula to fill the momentary void, and call up someone from Lehigh Valley with past NHL experience to sit as the seventh defender,
But on December 6, the Flyers made the somewhat surprising decision to call up the 22-year old Ty Murchison instead. Murchison had played 21 games with the ...
The Philadelphia Flyers are back playing hockey once again. Less than 24 hours after hosting the Hurricanes, the Flyers are down visiting them in Carolina to start a four-game road trip. They battled hard the last time around but could they do that all over again against the top team in the Eastern Conference?

Flyers winger Matvei Michkov has seen a drop in his ice time in his first 30 games this season versus the first 30 games last year. We dive into the details.
The Minnesota Wild won the Quinn Hughes sweepstakes, but there were plenty of other suitors who were willing to give up a robust package to land the former Norris Trophy winner, the consensus second-best blueliner in the NHL. And then there are the Philadelphia Flyers . They did not stay in the bidding to the end. They dropped out, refusing to pay the price of either of their top two young players/prospects, as David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period tells us. The Flyers (are) a team that poked (a...
