With a line-up that was missing it’s top center and three of their four most used defensemen, the Tampa Bay Lightning needed their best players to step up and take control against a feisty Philadelphia Flyers team. The Bolts answered the call as Andrei Vasilevskiy picked up his first shutout of the season with 20 saves while Brandon Hagel scored twice and added an assist. His linemates, Anthony Cirelli (1 goal, 1 assist), and Nikita Kucherov (3 assists) provided the rest of the offense as the ...

After a pretty exciting week, the Flyers went to Tampa and left without a goal. Brandon Hagel was the star of the game with two goals and an assist, while Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped all 20 shots fired his direction. A sluggish start lingered well beyond the first period, with the Flyers never really finding their offensive game. In the end, the Flyers left Tampa Bay with a 3-0 loss.
The basics
First period: 15:34 – Brandon Hagel (Emil Lilleberg, Nikita Kucherov) Second period: ...

It’s something so many fans have been clamoring for, to watch one of the top Philadelphia Flyers prospects in a more exciting and offensively charged environment on a much better team. And, well, it finally happened.
According to Jeff Marek, the Guelph Storm have traded Flyers prospect Jett Luchanko to the powerhouse Brantford Bulldogs in the OHL. Luchanko goes from needing to be the main offensive driver on a playoff bubble team in junior hockey, to possibly the best team in the entire C...

Coming off of a big win over the Blues on Thursday, a game which got the Flyers going again after a four-day layoff, they were back in action last night with a much more challenging task ahead of them — taking down a much tougher (at least as far as place in the standings is concerned) divisional opponent as the Devils came to town. This was another game which could have gone sideways quickly on the Flyers, as they again gave up an early goal, but instead of getting down, they managed not just...

Matvei Michkov was still supposed to be playing in the KHL this season. At least, that was the expectation for him when the Flyers drafted him in the first round (seventh overall) in the 2023 NHL Draft. There was speculation he could possibly get across the pond a year earlier than expected if the KHL team he was playing for let him go and released him prior to his contract ending. But the Flyers brass were there front and center when Michkov arrived in the U.S. He was here to start his career...

With just two games on the schedule, it looked as if this might be a bit of a quiet week for the Flyers. But boy was that not the case. Dan Vladar bounced back in a big way after a tough outing in Dallas, they made history with three quick goals, and they may have found a new defensive pairing. With an overtime win against St. Louis and a regulation win — yes, a regulation win — against New Jersey, they finished the week with a perfect 2-0 record. With that, let’s take a look at the standouts....

The Flyers made history against New Jersey tonight, unleashing a flurry of three goals in 26 seconds to break a franchise record, and turn what was a tied game into a lopsided contest.
Midway through the first period, Sean Couturier won a puck battle along the wall and delivered a pass to Matvei Michkov that sprung the Russian phenom on a breakaway from the blue line. That then allowed Michkov to finish coolly through the five-hole of Jake Allen, and start the oncoming barrage with 7:54 ...

When the Flyers take on New Jersey Saturday night, they will be playing their twentieth game of the season. The quarter pole is often a decent sample size of where a team is at or, more importantly, where it isn’t. Philadelphia still isn’t looking for its first win of the year, so that’s a good thing. Some might argue facetiously they’re still seeking their first five-on-five goal but they’ve done that too. Not a lot, but they’ve reached that achievement. The Flyers still haven’t been shutout ...

The Philadelphia Flyers have held pretty steady in their defensive pairs this season.
Cam York and Travis Sanheim are holding things down on the top pair, with Nick Seeler and Jamie Drysdale primarily playing together as the second pair. That’s left Noah Juulsen, Emil Andrae, Egor Zamula, and Adam Ginning to rotate in on the third pair.
Each of those top two pairs has played over 220 minutes together at 5-on-5, per MoneyPuck, and it appeared as if the new third pair was going to stic...

For the first time in four days, since the close of their back-to-back last weekend on the road, the Flyers were back in action last night, looking to pull off a sweep of the season series with the Blues and quickly begin to gain back some of the ground that they lost in the standings while they were sitting with their long layoff. It was going to be a bit of an uphill battle — four days, even with practice time mixed in, is a lot of days to be off collectively — but the Flyers responded prett...

Folks, we are finally back in action. We last saw the Flyers what feels like ages ago, but was actually just on Saturday, when they closed out their back-to-back on the road with a loss to the Stars. It was a tough one, especially coming on the heels of a pretty good win the night before over the Blues (those same Blues who are in town tonight and will be looking to find a bit of revenge and avoid being swept in the season series). It’s been a long layoff for the Flyers, but the hope is that t...

It’s not that often that fans of the Philadelphia Flyers care so much about the comings and goings of the Ontario Hockey League, unless they reside in the province of Ontario, but this year is different with top prospect Jett Luchanko being such a hot topic as of late.

Flyers wingers Travis Konency and Matvei Michkov should, on paper, be a strong force on the ice together. Both have scoring ability. Both seem capable of keeping plays going in the offensive zone, whether working for the puck in the corners or weaving their way methodically into open space. And both had over 20 goals last season for Philadelphia, even if Konecny’s second half of the year was a drastic drop in production. With Sean Couturier down the middle between them, the thought was the lin...
