It’s that time of year again, and with that we here at BSH have decided to take the 12 Days of Christmas and change it around a bit. Here then, is what we hope a dozen of the Flyers (or their coaching staff) receive this holiday season before they head out West and begin the gauntlet to and after the Winter Olympics.
Matvei Michkov – A card that says “Get Out Of Jail Free”
We know he hasn’t been benched. We know he hasn’t had it out in public with head coach Rick Tocchet. And we know...
The Philadelphia Flyers walked through the quicksands of increasingly tough opponents last week and proceeded to do everything that they are known to do this season. Nothing major was figured out — there were no breakthroughs or discoveries that have us all giddy at the thought of going through more of this campaign. It was the Flyers trying to play Rick Tocchet-style low-event hockey against some of the NHL’s best teams and getting some loser points out of their efforts.
A nice and tidy ...
Brady Tkachuk is not on the trade market, but that clearly hasn’t stopped speculation from bubbling up around the Ottawa Senators captain. During a recent discussion, analyst Colby Cohen, speaking on Snow the Goalie: A Flyers Podcast , made a surprising statement, suggesting that if Tkachuk ever does leave Ottawa, the Philadelphia Flyers would be a team he would “seriously look at.”
Why the Flyers keep coming up with Brady Tkachuk
According to Cohen, the connection goes beyond ...
*Alright let’s get the compulsory game stuff out of the way… the Flyers started the home-and-home with Carolina at home, took them to overtime, and then to a shootout, and then walked away with a loss. First time all season; that’s wild! RECAP !
*Then yesterday evening the took the ice in Carolina and decided to do the same exact thing all over again. Gotta love commitment to a bit, huh? RECAP !

It was fun while it lasted, that moment atop the East (by points) on Saturday afternoon before the Hurricanes swept their weekend back-to-back with the Flyers, who also earned points in each by making it to overtime. With a couple of more games played than several peers, Isles have just one game over a five-game […]
The Carolina Hurricanes won their third straight shootout game as they outlasted the Philadelphia Flyers, 3-2 on Sunday night at the Lenovo Center. The win allowed Carolina to sweep the back-to-back and home-and-home series. The Canes now have a 21-9-2 record as they sit three points ahead of the second place New York Islanders in […]
The Flyers were down 2-0, showed some moxie and character to tie the game up 2-2 late in the game, but lost their second consecutive shootout to Carolina 3-2.
The basics
First period: 5:44- William Carrier (Sean Walker, Jordan Staal), 15:53- Taylor Hall (Alexander Nikishin, Jackson Blake) (PPG), 19:07- Jamie Drysdale (Trevor Zegras, Matvei Michkov) Second period: No scoring Third period: 18:08- Trevor Zegras (Travis Konecny, Christan Dvorak) Overtime: No scoring Shootout: Seth Jarvis...
When the Flyers announced that Cam York would miss another short stretch of time with an upper-body injury on December 4, it seemed like the most likely outcome was that the team would just reinsert Yegor Zamula to fill the momentary void, and call up someone from Lehigh Valley with past NHL experience to sit as the seventh defender,
But on December 6, the Flyers made the somewhat surprising decision to call up the 22-year old Ty Murchison instead. Murchison had played 21 games with the ...
The Philadelphia Flyers are back playing hockey once again. Less than 24 hours after hosting the Hurricanes, the Flyers are down visiting them in Carolina to start a four-game road trip. They battled hard the last time around but could they do that all over again against the top team in the Eastern Conference?

Flyers winger Matvei Michkov has seen a drop in his ice time in his first 30 games this season versus the first 30 games last year. We dive into the details.
The Minnesota Wild won the Quinn Hughes sweepstakes, but there were plenty of other suitors who were willing to give up a robust package to land the former Norris Trophy winner, the consensus second-best blueliner in the NHL. And then there are the Philadelphia Flyers . They did not stay in the bidding to the end. They dropped out, refusing to pay the price of either of their top two young players/prospects, as David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period tells us. The Flyers (are) a team that poked (a...
If a divisional game is a four-point matchup, then back-to-back, home-and-home divisional games are worth eight points in the standings. This is certainly true when looking at the Metropolitan Division right now. All eight Metro teams were in action last night, and all but Columbus secured at least one point in the standings. The shootout […]
PHILADELPHIA — On Saturday night, with the first of back-to-back games against the Philadelphia Flyers on the line, Rod Brind’Amour and Jeff Daniels called Jackson Blake’s number in the fourth round of the shootout. The two just had a feeling it was the right call, despite the 22-year old being 0-for-3 in his young career […]
The Flyers were solid in the first half of the game but looked lucky to hang on to the loser point. The end result was a 4-3 victory for the visiting Hurricanes, extending their unbeaten streak in Philadelphia to nine games.
The basics
First period: 10:04- Bobby Brink (Trevor Zegras, Travis Sanheim), 17:34- Trevor Zegras (Travis Konecny, Jamie Drysdale) Second period: 9:11- Nikolaj Ehlers (Shayne Gostisbehere), 14:12- Alexander Nikishin (Joel Nystrom, Taylor Hall) Third period: 12:26...
PHILADELPHIA — The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Philadelphia Flyers, 4-3, on Saturday night at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The win is the Hurricanes’ third straight and puts them in sole possession of first place in the Metropolitan Division. After allowing two early first period goals, the Canes stormed back to tie the game in the second. […]
It’s been a busy week for the Flyers, and it’s only getting busier for them as we move into the weekend. On deck, the Flyers have a home-and-home series against the Hurricanes, and they’re kicking that off with the first matchup in South Philly this evening. The Flyers, coming off of a competitive showing but still pretty gutting overtime loss to the Golden Knights on Thursday, will be looking to keep their positive momentum building, but it’ll be a tough matchup for them, as the top team in t...
The Carolina Hurricanes (19-9-2) are set to take on the Philadelphia Flyers (16-9-4) at Xfinity Mobile Arena at 7 PM in the first of a home-and-home between the two teams. The Canes are on a roll as of late, winning five of their last seven games, including a shootout victory over the Capitals on Thursday […]
On Saturday at 7 p.m. ET, the Carolina Hurricanes will face the Philadelphia Flyers at Xfinity Mobile Arena, and we have best bets suggestions right here if you want to make a wager.

There were a few teams in the running for Vancouver defenseman Quinn Hughes, including a few in the Eastern Conference. Washington was mentioned, New Jersey was tossed around given the sibling connection, and Philadelphia was briefly thrown into the mix. However, trading Hughes to Minnesota for a rather good package of young prospects, a draft pick, and an established center was a decent return for Hughes.
While the Flyers struck out on this current transaction to land the coveted world-c...
The Minnesota Wild decided to shock the hockey world by acquiring world-class defenseman Quinn Hughes from the Vancouver Canucks on Friday night and the package they had to send makes it completely clear that the Philadelphia Flyers never really had a chance to get the player.
Wild general manager Bill Guerin sent hotshot rookie defenseman Zeev Buium (we’re all familiar with him), center Marco Rossi, winger Liam Ohgren, and a 2026 first-round pick off to Vancouver to get Hughes on his tea...
It’s been a wild week in the world of prospects, with movement up and down the organizational ladder, as well as some more in and out of it entirely, and we’re here to recap all of the week’s biggest happenings. Let’s get into it.
The News of the Week
We have a lot of what feel like slow news weeks around here, it’s the nature of the game, but this sure wasn’t one of them. Since we last spoke, the Phantoms’ defense group has been changed up quite a bit: Adam Ginning cleared waivers a...
*WELL. Way she goes, huh friends? Play a pretty solid game for 60, lose on a weird brain fart in OT. Way she goes. RECAP !
*Ahead of last night’s game we learned that Rasmus Ristolainen and Cam York are really, really close to coming back into the lineup. Tocc said before Christmas for Risto, which is wild. [ Inquirer ]
*Despite a little bit of a rough one against the Knights last night, you have to assume that Emil Andrae has played well enough to remain in the top six once those tw...
The Flyers skated with Vegas throughout the night in a relatively low-event contest, making their way to overtime against one of the best teams in the West before a Travis Konecny turnover in the 3-on-3 portion of the proceedings gave Jack Eichel a chance to set up Mark Stone in front for a 3-2 Vegas victory.
The basics
First period: 6:07 – Zach Whitecloud (Ivan Barbashev, Braeden Bowman); 16:11 – Trevor Zegras (Travis Sanheim, Christian Dvorak) Second period: 12:53 (PPG) – Mark St...
The Flyers are continuing to plug away through their most recent run of home games, and after picking up a commanding win over the Sharks on Tuesday, the Flyers are going to hope to continue their winning ways over this visiting Golden Knights squad. It’s not going to be an easy matchup for them, but it’s another test of their resilience — that, even with a slightly depleted lineup, they can continue to find ways to hang with these top teams.

Flyers defenseman Emil Andrae has never met a challenge he hasn’t overcome. Last season the blueliner spent just over half a season with Philadelphia and, at times, looked like a bottom pairing defenseman. But after not being a lock in the top six — especially given the absence of Rasmus Ristolainen, Andrae could’ve wilted in his play, ending up on the fence in Lehigh Valley amid their bounty of defensemen. In the span of a week in late October and early November, Andrae was yo-yoed from the P...
