Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen can throw a big hit at times, can clear the puck quickly, and sometime deliver a howitzer from the point that will either have a defender on the ice from the shot block or, once in a while, the net. He’s now 12 games into this season after missing roughly the first two and a half months, and he has a trio of assists.
But perhaps more than anything else, he is probably the guy who should be on the trading block for Philadelphia in a season where Flyers ...

Just as the injury bug is striking the Flyers again and again, so too has it been doing some damage to their affiliate down with the Phantoms.
The Phantoms are working with a lineup which has already been a bit depleted due to call-ups to the NHL — missing all of Carl Grundstrom, Denver Barkey, and now Adam Ginning — and it’s just getting thinner. This weekend saw them on the road for a pair of games in Springfield and Providence, and quickly down two of their top players.

The Philadelphia Flyers were without a few key players on Saturday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and it showed. The team suffered its worst loss of the season, falling 7-2 at home, largely due to an awful effort in the third period.
The Flyers’ previous season-high in goals allowed was five, which happened seven times, but Tampa Bay lit them up a touchdown and an extra point on Saturday night.
It was a particularly rough game for goaltender Sam Ersson. He has been battling t...

The Flyers opened this past week with a 5-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks in a game that had no shortage of drama. Trevor Zegras stole the spotlight in the much-anticipated matchup, scoring twice, and the Flyers would go on to pull away on the scoreboard. The win, however, came at a cost, as Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale were both forced out after being on the receiving end of questionable hits, putting a damper on an otherwise fun night of hockey.
Next came the Toronto Maple Leafs and Scot...

The Philadelphia Flyers are currently experiencing a whole lot of injuries and after Saturday night’s 7-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, they need these players back as soon as possible. Travis Konecny missed that terrible experience of a hockey game, but he appeared to be quickly getting back into action as he (as well as recently injured Bobby Brink) returned to practice on Sunday morning.
Well, about that.
Just minutes after Konecny re-joined the group and was taking part in the...

All signs pointed to this being a close game, and it was. Till it wasn’t. Goals by Gage Goncalves and Brandon Hagel just over a minute apart early in the third period turned a close game into a big win for the Lightning as they put seven pucks past Sam Ersson on just 23 shots to start their road trip with a 7-2 win. Goncalves finished with two goals while Nikita Kucherov kept his hot streak going with two goals and two assists.

The Flyers have made it to the weekend, and they’re set to kick off the first of two games against the Lighting on home ice tonight. Their lineup is looking a little thin, with some key absences at the top of it, but they’ll be looking to rally back and find a way to respond after a tough loss in overtime to the Leafs, last time out.

When Jamie Drysdale went down following a blindside cheap shot from regular member of the prestigious “goal per season” club, Anaheim Ducks’ Ross Johnston, it was immediately met with anger from both Flyers fans in the building, and the players on the bench.
But in the aftermath, all that really mattered was the status of Drysdale, who after a tough start to life in Philadelphia, has looked like a much more effective player in his third season as a Flyer. He was on pace to break his care...

The Philadelphia Flyers are hosting the Tampa Bay Lightning for a very weird sequence of back-to-back contests but they’re both going to be at home. And it is just perfect timing for the Flyers to lose a whole lot of their talent from the lineup after Bobby Brink, Travis Konecny, and Jamie Drysdale have suffered injuries this week.
With these injuries, the Flyers’ depth will be tested and of course they are facing a Lightning team that has won their last eight games and have the Eastern C...

The injuries are suddenly piling up for the Philadelphia Flyers.
They caught a break with Travis Sanheim and Denver Barkey both not missing any time after going down in Saturday’s win in Edmonton, but they haven’t been as lucky since returning home.
Both Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale were injured on borderline hits in the Flyers’ 5-2 win over the Ducks. Anaheim was only penalized for one of those hits, and n one of the multiple questionable collisions received any supplemental disci...

The Philadelphia Flyers are beginning to turn the corner in their rebuild. They’re done being sellers at the deadline, instead extending guys like Christian Dvorak, who they might have traded in years past. Danny Briere and Keith Jones have done a great job of trimming down the fat and filling the prospect cupboards in recent years.
Matvei Michkov is already here. Denver Barkey hasn’t looked out of place in the NHL during his first professional season. Jett Luchanko made the roster out of...

The Flyers welcomed fan favorite Scott Laughton back to Philadelphia on Thursday night, but it was the veteran forward who got the last laugh. The Toronto Maple Leafs came away with a 2-1 win in overtime after Laughton tied the game with a shorthanded goal late in the third period.
Laughton’s return was a much-anticipated one for both the player and his former team. The Flyers honored Laughton with a video during the first TV timeout of Thursday night’s game.

For the last few years now, the Flyers have threaded the needle. They’ve been putting a middling to (now) decently good roster on the ice, but emphasized the goal of developing players and planning for the future above all else. They never would tank, but they also weren’t in the business of competing or really even getting close to the playoffs.
In that process, they’ve never really added to the team, and only ever sold. They’ve acted the way that teams in a rebuild act, even if th...

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny has been perfect this year: he hasn’t missed a game yet. He’s had a very strong first half, with 13 goals and 24 assists for 37 points. Yet if you extrapolate those numbers over the rest of the year, he might end up a hair behind the 76 points he earned in 2024-25. Right now that projection is 74. But, whether it’s recency bias or just a new season, Konecny has looked like the winger who dazzled most of the first half of 2024-25. And far less than the ...
