Flyers’ 3 Stars of the Week: Pair of young defensemen lead the way

Another week for the Flyers has come and gone, and it was a pretty good week for the Orange and Black. Across three games this week, the Flyers went 2-0-1, collecting 5 of 6 possible points.  On Tuesday and Thursday, the Flyers went into Montreal and Nashville and came away with two gutsy road victories. On Saturday, the Flyers couldn’t recover from a lackluster start in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators.  So, without further ado, let’s dive into the three standout...

Today In NHL History - Hextall Fights Felix Potvin

On November 10th in 1996, Ron Hextall of the Philadelphia Flyers skated the length of the ice to engage netminder Felix Potvin when a melee broke out at the end of a match against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Cam York is finally taking the next step for Flyers

When head coach John Tortorella left at the end of last season, Cam York’s play left a lot of questions for the Philadelphia Flyers. Since he was drafted 14th overall in 2019, there has been a lot of pressure placed upon his shoulders to become a key piece of an improved Flyers defense. Between being selected around marquee names like Cole Caufield, Matt Boldy, his new teammate Trevor Zegras, and being frozen out by his old coach John Tortorella, York’s future in Philadelphia seemed like it ma...

Monday Morning Fly By: Slow news day

*The Flyers closed out their road trip during the week with a big win over the Predators on Thursday, meaning that they were able to pull off a sweep and come home with a nice bit of momentum in the back pocket. Charlie has his big takeaways from that one here. [ PHLY ] *The game was also, for Ryan O’Reilly and the Preds, a bit of a doozy. [ BSH ] *Lest we forget, they also saw a bit of shuffling of their roster ahead of this weekend’s game, as they sent Aleksei Kolosov back down to ...

Nick Seeler deserves his flowers for efforts on improved Flyers blue line

As the Flyers keep their head above water in the tightly-packed Metropolitan Division, a lot of the defensive play has centered on a new concept. Namely, not blocking every shot every shift which former coach John Tortorella preached ad nauseam. Rick Tocchet still wants players to block shots, but it’s not the end all and be all of the team’s success in their own end. It looks more like a Plan C or D option to prevent the other team from scoring. Tocchet is relying on lanes being cleared ...

Matvei Michkov tries Michigan goal at Flyers practice, hits Dan Vladar in the head

Philadelphia Flyers star youngster Matvei Michkov is finally looking like himself on the ice. After a rough start to his season caused by a setback in his offseason training and just not being up to full speed, the 20-year-old has now scored two goals in his last two games. And that includes a beautiful tally that he netted against the Ottawa Senators on Saturday afternoon. But it isn’t always sunshine and rainbows as he returns to looking like the dominant force that he was for the major...

Flyers’ Matvei Michkov reveals he took 4 months off from hockey in offseason

The Philadelphia Flyers are relying heavily on Matvei Michkov panning out to be a very good player that could even flirt with stardom and be the best player on their team going forward. But unfortunately to start this season, he has played extremely poorly. Concerns about a sophomore slump has only been accented as the season has gone on and we’ve been trying to look for signs of last year’s rookie sensation still on the ice. Michkov looked slow and not just in his skating but thinking th...

Flyers make Ryan O’Reilly question his life choices

The Philadelphia Flyers were able to overcome a fairly bad game by their standards and still sneak out with the full two points against the Nashville Predators in Thursday night’s 3-1 win on the road. It was sunshine and rainbows for the visitors — Matvei Michkov scored his first goal in 10 games, Travis Konecny got on the stat sheet, Cam York and Noah Cates continued their excellent seasons — but over on the other side of the ice it was pure misery and distain. It was a loss that was so ...

Flyers @ Predators: How to watch, lineups, and gamethread

The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off one of the most exciting games of their young season after winning and losing and then winning again against the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre.
