Flyers Have A Trade Deadline Problem

The Philadelphia Flyers are a team in a position that organizations don't want to be in. They're not good enough for playoffs right now as they sit eight points back of a playoff spot and have won three of their last 10 games, they're not bad enough for a top-5 draft pick to have a good chance at winning the lottery or getting a game-changer, and they don't have players to sell for any value. So they have to either dig deep and trade players with term to get something out of the season or stan...

Could Flyers trade Owen Tippett at the deadline? NHL insider weighs in

The Philadelphia Flyers are firmly stuck in a position that no team truly wants to be in. With the Olympics going on and weeks away from the NHL resuming again, the Flyers are eight points out of a playoff spot with several teams in competition. But, they aren’t bad enough to truly sink to the bottom for one of the top draft picks this June. With that in mind, what can they even do as the trade deadline approaches on March 6? Well, it could involve trading Owen Tippett. On the latest...

If the Flyers are rebuilding, why aren’t the kids playing?

Despite Danny Briere and Rick Tocchet’s comments on how this is a ‘young team’, the Flyers’ reluctance to consistently play their young prospects shows that they might be more focused on short-term stability than long-term growth. The Philadelphia Flyers have undoubtedly been struggling — losing 12 of their last 15 — and during a skid like this, you’d expect the young guys to be getting heavy minutes, right? Well, that hasn’t been the case. The kids aren’t alright With The Offsp...

Wednesday Morning Fly By: We’re Team Czechia in this house

*It’s Flyers At The Olympics Time! We (and by we I mean me, the person writing this, who is technically sort of in charge, and I did not consult anyone else so the views expressed here may not reflect the views of Broad Street Hockey as a whole) are rooting for Team Czechia around here, and our boy Dan Vladar is pumped and ready to go! [ Inquirer ] *Presumably Rick Tocchet is also pumped and ready to go. [ Inquirer ] *In fact it’s probably safe to assume that all of the NHLers compet...

Jamie Drysdale’s development is just what the Flyers needed

The Philadelphia Flyers traded one of the top prospects in hockey, Cutter Gauthier , for an inexperienced, inconsistent, and oft-injured defenseman in Jamie Drysdale. They certainly had their pick of names to choose from in the very private, under-the-table Gauthier sweepstakes, and the front office decided Drysdale was worth hitching their wagons to. To that point, the young defenseman had begun to stall in his development, but with a more stable environment in Philadelphia, we’re just beginn...

Philadelphia Flyers Winter 2026 Top 25 Under 25: Honorable mentions

As the Philadelphia Flyers take a break and the trio of Olympians head to Italy to go represent their country and hopefully get some sort of medal, we’re taking a broader look at the future of this organization. While the full Top 25 Under 25 series goes on during the summer over here at Broad Street Hockey, we thought it would be a perfect opportunity, with no Flyers going on, to have a mid-season check-in. Just look at where we think some prospects are heading and where some young profe...

Monday Morning Fly By: The break’s on

*Folks! We’ve officially made it to the Olympic break. We’re ready to more or less shut the Flyers out of our minds, especially after the loss that they dropped on us in their last game before this break. [ PHLY ] *It was an especially tough loss, because there were points in there where a win really was within reach for the Flyers, if they had just been able to bear down and not miss on so many of their opportunities. [ BSH ] *As we said, we’re pretty ready for the break, but there’...

Flyers Could Trade One Of Two Key Players In Blockbuster

The Philadelphia Flyers have somewhat hung around all season, but they weren't exactly projected to be a contender this season anyways. They have had some strong performances from certain players and it helps give management an idea of how to shape the team for the future. The Flyers are almost there. They have some solid core pieces, a generally younger to middle-aged group of talent, and some prospects. They are on the rise, even if it takes until next season or the one after for it to reall...

Missed opportunities marred Flyers’ final game before Olympic break

The Flyers, riding high after snapping their losing streak with a big win over the Capitals on Tuesday, went into their final game before the break with a significant challenge on their hands — keeping their positive momentum rolling now that they finally had it. And while there were pieces in the matchup which worked in their favor, between a similarly matchup Senators team broadly, but more precisely one starting a 37-year old James Reimer only a handful of games into his stint with Ottawa a...

3 Flyers who probably don’t want an Olympic break

The Flyers finished their pre-Olympic gauntlet Thursday night with a 2-1 overtime loss against the Ottawa Senators. The Flyers capped off this stretch of 56 games with a record of 25-20-11. And while some players we mentioned previously well more than happy to see the Olympic break now for a few weeks, there are a few other players who maybe hate the fact they’re now having some down time. It’s not every Flyer, but we take a look at three Flyers who are playing quite well of late, and would ju...

Friday Morning Fly By: The loserest point

*Without much in the way of hyperbole, that was the worst hockey game I have ever seen. An embarrassing effort, if you could even call it that. Surely you want to read about it, so… RECAP ! *The Flyers were looking for build some momentum last night heading into the Olympic break — like okay obviously winning is good but you’re off for 19 days boys I’m not sure that’s how “momentum” works, exactly — and they absolutely did not succeed in doing that.

Flyers’ Travis Konecny remains consistent through difficult time

Between being left off of the Canadian Olympic team following his appearance at the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament last year and playing for a team that seems destined to miss the playoffs once again, Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny hasn’t had much go his way this year.  Following the Flyers’ 6-3 loss to the Bruins last week that stretched their losing streak to three, Konecny voiced his frustration at the fact that his squad seemed to be fading out of the playoff picture once ag...

NHL Rumors: Flyers Have New Trade Candidate Emerging

The Philadelphia Flyers have not exactly been screaming “sell” all season, but Bobby Brink’s name is starting to stick in the rumor cycle anyway.  Between a softening playoff push and a roster that is getting tighter by the week, Brink has landed on multiple trade radars as a skilled, affordable winger who can slide into a contender’s middle six.  He is only 24, he is producing, and with his contract situation coming fast, the timing is lining up in a way that makes teams call.

Flyers GM Danny Briere: The first 1000 days

February 4 marks 1000 days since the interim tag was removed from Philadelphia Flyers General Manager Danny Briere. After a short trial run following the firing of Chuck Fletcher, Briere was given the reins, hoping to shed some of the contracts and players who were no longer fitting, swapping them off for picks, trying to change the team through the draft, and making a handful of deals that were somewhat outside the box. The jury is still out on a few of the draft picks, and will be for probab...

Flyers show progress in win over Capitals, but bigger challenge lies ahead

The Flyers, hitting the start of the month of February on a four-game losing streak and at the risk of heading into the Olympic break in free fall, managed to pull together a prompt shift in momentum. Picking up a reasonably tidy 4-2 win over their divisional rival Capitals, the Flyers lifted quite a major weight off of their shoulders, but still sit with a reminder that there’s work yet to be done. Overcoming the noise To deliver the understatement of the century, things have not be...
