The Flyers have been struck again by the injury bug. With Rodrigo Abols taking an injury in yesterday afternoon’s game against the Rangers and the prognosis immediately not looking so good , the time came again for the Flyers to dip into the well of options from the AHL squad to bring into the mix to help fill that role centering the fourth line.
For this, veteran centerman Lane Pederson was given the nod. Pederson has spent the better part of this season centering the Phantoms’ top line,...

A post–Letter 2.0 win over Philadelphia brought goals, firsts, and good vibes… which somehow feels like the least helpful outcome imaginable.

With the news made official today that the Flyers have placed defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen on Injured Reserve with an upper-body injury, and his timeline for return remaining a bit murky, the decision was made to bring up some reinforcements from the AHL, as their current mix on defense hasn’t really been cutting it. In the corresponding move to Ristolainen’s IR placement, the Flyers announced Saturday evening that they’ve recalled Hunter McDonald from the Phantoms.
And the choice to rec...

The Philadelphia Flyers had an opportunity to get back on track at home on Saturday afternoon. Following a five-game losing streak that saw a combination of injuries, tough opponents, and scheduled losses pile up, a home matinee against the worst team in the Eastern Conference seemed like the chance to right the ship.
We wrote on Friday afternoon that the Flyers needed to beat the Rangers to avoid full-on panic mode . Hell, a decent effort in a loss would’ve been palatable after a few str...

Rasmus Ristolainen has revitalized his career with the Philadelphia Flyers, as the Finnish Olympian was able to first rebuild his game under former Flyers assistant coach Brad Shaw. Unfortunately, he’s had a great deal of trouble staying on the ice for extended periods of time.
The injury history
In the last three seasons, Ristolainen has missed 104 games out of a possible 211 thus far. That number will only creep higher as it was announced he will not be joining the team on their up...

On a snowy Saturday afternoon, the Flyers lost their sixth game in a row, falling 6-3 to the Rangers. Bad goaltending, bad defensive structure, and bad special teams were again the story, and the Flyers remain in free fall.
The basics
First period: 6:22 – Travis Konecny (Trevor Zegras, Travis Sanheim), 7:05 – Artemi Panarin (Vincent Trocheck, Alexis Lafreniere), 7:26 – Mika Zibanejad (JT Miller, Braden Schneider), 8:25 – Brennan Othmann (Will Cuylle) Second period: 5:38 – Zibanejad ...

The Philadelphia Flyers are without yet another player as center Rodrigo Abols had to exit Saturday afternoon’s game against the New York Rangers after a devastating and nasty-looking injury to his leg.
During the first period of this fairly important game against the division rivals, Abols went into a board battle for a loose puck with Rangers winger Gabe Perreault. Initially, it looked like a fairly harmless play but as the Flyers centerman turned around, it appears that the toe of his ...

The Philadelphia Flyers are back home for exactly one game and it just so happens to be a fairly big one. The New York Rangers front office had to write their fans a letter for the second time and this is the first game where the team have the opportunity to respond. And, well, the Flyers have issues of their own with a hefty losing streak. Should be a, well, interesting one?

The Philadelphia Flyers were a resilient team in the first half of the season.
Through their first 41 games, the Flyers only lost consecutive games five times, and only one time were those back-to-back losses in regulation. Their longest losing streak was three games, but they earned a point in each of those losses against top teams in the Vegas Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes.
So when the Flyers dominated the Ducks again in a Trevor Zegras revenge game to end the first half o...

The Flyers closed out their quick road trip last night in Pittsburgh, and the closed it out with something of a whimper, delivering another largely disorganized showing on the way to a 6-3 loss and an extension of their losing streak to five games. It was a game from which there were not a lot of positives to pull, but the sure exception to that was the play of Denver Barkey. Coming off of his first healthy scratching of the season — the first of his professional career — all eyes were turned ...

From where we are right now, the Philadelphia Flyers’ season is one that has given us a lot of hope but at the same time, the same old problems have bubbled up to the surface to give us the most sour taste in our mouths. Some promise, something to look forward to as some players progress, but then things about this team that fans have been complaining about for decades, are still extremely present.
As it stands it shouldn’t be considered a step back or even the status quo, but a slight st...

When the Philadelphia Flyers announced they had signed Christian Dvorak to a five-year extension, questions surfaced immediately. Why commit to that amount of term? Can Dvorak realistically sustain this level of play? What does the deal mean for the center prospects in the organization? Yet one question stands out, particularly in light of recent developments. Why now?
Dvorak, who will turn 30 in a few weeks, is in the midst of the most productive season of his ten-year career. After sign...

The Penguins got out to an early lead, held on for dear life and gave themselves enough of a cushion to take a 6-3 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night. Pittsburgh snapped a three-game losing streak and broke out of a slump where they only produced two total goals in those three games. […]

While the Philadelphia Flyers were getting embarrassed in Pittsburgh, Matvei Michkov stepped up to show some fight — literally.
Michkov has been more active in scrums recently and nearly got his first career fight on Wednesday night against Peyton Krebs, but the referees broke it up. He’s been itching to drop the gloves, and he didn’t let the opportunity pass him by on Thursday night in Pittsburgh.
Blake Lizotte lined up Denver Barkey with a hit in the neutral zone, and Michkov chase...

The Philadelphia Flyers are in goaltending hell right now.
Dan Vladar left Wednesday night’s loss in Buffalo after just one period due to an injury — early reports appear to be good, at least — and Sam Ersson hasn’t had the confidence of an NHL goalie in recent games. Aleksei Kolosov was recalled on Thursday afternoon, but didn’t get the start even after Ersson allowed two goals on eight shots the night before in Buffalo.
Rick Tocchet once again gave Ersson a nod, in what might have ...

Sam Ersson has had a bad year.
When the Philadelphia Flyers brought in Dan Vladar as a free agent last summer, the plan was to have them split the net and ride the hot hand. That hasn’t worked out, as the newcomer has played beyond even the most optimistic of expectations and taken the lion’s share of the crease.
It was up for debate if the below average save percentages over the years were a product of the team’s defensive structure, but Sam Ersson’s numbers have remained among the ...
