Who does this fanbase overrate?

It has always been pretty easy for an athlete to come to Philadelphia and win over the fanbase. The only real thing that is asked is that the player play hard. Athletic talent is something of a desired quality, but there are plenty of players that have been embraced by the city that were short […]

Rasmus Ristolainen might have played his way off of Flyers with Olympic performance

Before the Winter Olympics took place, Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen wasn’t thought to be an important piece of Team Finland’s hopes in terms of competing for a gold medal or even ending up in the medal round. The idea was that he’d have some time to play, look decent at best and hopefully avoid some freak injury and return to Philadelphia in one piece. That was the goal. Anything else would be considered gravy. Well, Flyers general manager Danny Briere might be smiling like the ca...

Three great Olympic medal game performances in Flyers history

As we head into the medal matchups in the final games of the Olympics, we’re taking some time to revisit some of the top performances by Flyers players in tournaments past. The research found great success linked Finland and Philadelphia at Olympic games, which bodes well for our defenseman, Rasmus Ristolainen, as he prepares to battle for bronze against Slovakia. But let’s get into the meat of this. Kimmo Timonen’s 2010 bronze medal: Finland versus Slovakia The 2010 Olympics in Vanc...

Spring Game #1 GameThread: Phillies @ Jays

These 1:00 Eastern starts really mess with my day. Being in Alberta, it is an 11:00 start. I like to get a workout in, but I’m not an early riser, so getting a GameThread together and working out before 11:00 is not going to happen. On the other hand, watching an 11:00 start-time game, doing […]

Is Bryce Harper still Elite?

It’s been a few months since Phillies GM Dave Dombrowski made public comments questioning Bryce Harper’s status as an elite player. Harper certainly didn’t have an elite season in 2025, but is that enough to demote a player entirely? Harper has admitted to still being baffled by the comments, but the good news is that […]

Flyers prospect Porter Martone completes the hat trick, hits 20-goal mark

In what was another dominant weekend for the Michigan State Spartans, Porter Martone once again proved why he’s seen as one of the best prospects in college hockey. The freshman winger exploded for four goals across the series, highlighted by a Friday night hat trick that showcased many elements of his toolkit. In the end, Michigan State defeated Notre Dame by a final score of 8-2. The Spartans wasted little time in this one, with Martone setting the tone almost immediately. Just over a m...

Flyers’ recent prospect call-ups are quietly redefining depth chart

As the Flyers reconvene ahead of the return of their Olympic representatives, and the roster starts to prepare for the final 26 games of the year, some new faces joined the big club for practice, albeit briefly. Goaltender Carson Bjarnason, as well as defensemen Oliver Bonk and Hunter McDonald, were all called up from Lehigh Valley in order to fill in the gaps left behind by Dan Vladar, Rasmus Ristolainen, and Travis Sanheim, who all made the trip to Milano-Cortina.  Bjarnason came up on ...

Who is your favorite Phillies Spring Training MVP?

Every year we get excited for the start of the Spring Training schedule of games. A long winter without baseball finally ends, even if the games don’t count. Then we quickly remember that the spring games are usually for the players we’ve never heard of or may never hear from again, as anyone important is […]

Flyers coach putting pressure on Matvei Michkov to finish season well

Some key pieces of the Flyers are still over in Italy battling for medals. But most of the club has been back in Philadelphia practicing. And after three consecutive days where the team was getting back in the swing of things, assistant coach Todd Reirden says it’s important for some players to have strong finishes. And none of those came to the fore more than winger Matvei Michkov during Thursday’s post-practice presser. Although Reirden spoke in depth about the trio of players called up...
