Rick Tocchet calls out Flyers’ undisciplined play after loss to Red Wings
Although head coach Rick Tocchet was not happy with the energy level or the special teams in Philadelphia’s 6-3 loss to Detroit Thursday night, he was especially irked by the team’s lack of discipline. And while he didn’t name names, it didn’t take a rocket scientist to determine some of the players he was talking about after the game. “I’m a little disappointed, obviously we got to let it go, we’re still in a position of controlling our own destiny,” Tocchet said after the loss Thursday ...
NHL Playoffs: What’s next for the Penguins?

Friday Morning Fly By: Smacked down
*So they’re really going to play a whole season not having won more than three games in a row. That’s wild. Also, that game last night flat-out stunk. If you missed it, no you didn’t. Recap . *Had a little bit of news yesterday; after some rumors flying around that he wanted to stay in Sweden, the Flyers signed Jack Berglund to his ELC. So he’ll be coming! Cool! [ BSH ] *There’s been a lot of talk of the importance of the Flyers’ young players playing in meaningful, important hockey ...

The Flyers proved every preseason prediction wrong
The Flyers have four games remaining. Nothing is secured just yet, and the magic number is just slightly higher than the tragic number going into tonight’s critical contest against Detroit. But whatever happens over the next periods, Philadelphia has turned some heads this season. And have shushed a lot of the critics, particularly since the Olympic break. So while no champagne corks should be popping just yet, we can at least look back at what some of the notable experts around the league pro...
Game Day Updates: Red Wings vs. Flyers
This is starting to feel pretty familiar. Around this time in each of the past few seasons, we’ve used these posts to detail the intricate dance that needs to unfold for Detroit to keep its playoff hopes alive. It doesn’t feel worthwhile this year. Not as much because I feel defeated, but because it just feels like the hockey gods have it in for this team. [Larry] Murphy’s Law, or something. Tuesday’s game against Columbus was a solid effort, but everyone saw it coming. Multiple lost 50/5...

Thursday Morning Fly By: Just win, babies
*We’ve hit the final four games of the season, starting the countdown with another meeting with the Detroit Red Wings. Would be a great time for the Flyers to finally win four in a row, huh?

[ BSH ] *The goaltending isn’t the only thing going well right now for the Flyers, though. It’s just about everything. Perfect time of year to start peaking! [ ...
Trevor Zegras is shedding his old reputation with the Flyers
One thing was made clear almost immediately after the Philadelphia Flyers acquired Trevor Zegras: The young forward wanted to rebuild his reputation across the hockey world. In one of his first opportunities to speak with the media as a member of the Flyers, Zegras spoke at-length about not wanting to be known for his flashy plays or trickshots on the ice anymore, but just as “a hockey player”. Someone who contributes to winning games rather than getting noticed on social media. That was ...
Is Dan Vladar having the best Flyers goalie season of the last 10 years?
The Philadelphia Flyers have found a goalie and he is quietly having a historically good season.
3 Philadelphia Flyers Potential Offseason Goalie Targets
The Philadelphia Flyers should be looking to add another backup or 1B goalie this offseason. Samuel Ersson has struggled as the team's backup this season, as evidenced by his .867 save percentage and his 3.15 goals-against average in 31 games this season. Due to this, let's look at three goalies who the Flyers should consider targeting this summer to form a strong tandem with Dan Vladar. Stuart Skinner, Pittsburgh Penguins If the Penguins do not re-sign Skinner, he is a...
Flyers’ ugly win over Devils could pay off in the playoffs
With their massive 5-1 win over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night, the Philadelphia Flyers raised their playoff odds to over 50% from just about anyone who does those sorts of calculations. They are more likely than not going to be clinching their spot before season’s end and hosting their first playoff games in Philadelphia since 2018. And with just exactly how they won on Tuesday night in Newark, there is some more confidence in this team being able to make some more noise in the p...

Flyers @ Devils: How to watch, lineups, and gamethread
The final week of the regular season is upon us, and with just five games remaining on the schedule, the Flyers are looking to keep the ball rolling and hold on to their recently grabbed playoff spot.

Garnet Hathaway named Flyers nominee for King Clancy Memorial Trophy
On the scoresheet, it hasn’t been a great year for Flyers winger Garnet Hathaway. After earning 21 points last season, the veteran fourth-liner has one goal to go with two assists. But that’s on the ice. Off the ice, he’s been the same considerate and generous person he’s been known as. And it’s for that reason that the Flyers Tuesday made Hathaway their nominee for this year’s King Clancy Memorial Trophy. The honor is given annually “to the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on ...
Where the Flyers’ playoff chances stand with one week remaining

The Flyers will then return home next Monday and Tuesday for a tough back...
Rick Tocchet talks about ‘band-aid’ solutions for Flyers’ power play struggles
The Philadelphia Flyers have needed to work on the power play for a very long time, and head coach Rick Tocchet knows that. So, he’s trying out some temporary solutions. On Sunday against Boston, the Flyers had a 5-on-3 for nearly two minutes in overtime. It was a very low-risk option, but Philadelphia head coach Rick Tocchet went with five forwards for that power play. The collection of Christian Dvorak, Porter Martone, Travis Konecny, Trevor Zegras, and Tyson Foerster took the ice to go...
Sam Ersson is playing for his job over the Flyers’ final stretch
A whole lot has been made of the goaltending for the Philadelphia Flyers. Somehow, this team has found a solution to their ongoing problem in Dan Vladar, and even if it’s a short-term one that we have no idea how it is going to look year-to-year, for the time being he’s the solidifier in between the pipes. Vladar’s arrival has made us all look and see what this roster can do with someone capable of saving more than 90 percent of the shots that they face and it’s frankly been absurdly too ...
