The Blackhawks didn’t skate until they warmed up on the ice in Dallas since losing to the Flyers. And they were facing one of the best teams in the league. So… yeah. Odds weren’t in their favor. But they played a really good first period. Chicago took the lead 3:20 into the first period and I’m not sure Arvid Söderblom ever saw the shot that tied the game almost eight minutes later. The Hawks had an 8-4 advantage in scoring chances and 3-2 advantage in high danger chances at 5-on-5 thru 20 min...

The Philadelphia Flyers want to keep Christian Dvorak around and are willing to sign him to a fresh and new contract extension, according to the latest report.
Dvorak signed a one-year, $5.4-million contract with the Flyers on July 1 last summer as the team’s temporary fix at the center position as Philadelphia hoped to turn the corner from a not-so-good team looking at the draft lottery odds after every game, to one who was looking forward to the playoffs. And it has kind of worked out t...

Two of the Flyers’ most prized prospects got off to a winning start at the sport’s premier junior hockey showcase, as Canada took down Czechia to kick off their World Junior Hockey Championship.
Porter Martone capped off the win with an empty net goal late in the third period for his only point of the night, but took two penalties, while Jett Luchanko was held off the scoresheet in his sixth WJC game.
The Canadians leaned on Martone in particular as one of their main offensive ...

It’s one thing for Yegor Zavragin to get run into or be hit during the ups and downs of a KHL season. But you often expect that to happen primarily in games, and sometimes in practice. However, it’s rare that a goalie who was a backup, sitting on the bench minding his own business, was leveled as badly as Zavragin was in a game Friday.
Zavragin, a third-round pick by Philadelphia in the 2023 NHL Draft, was the backup goalie for SKA St. Petersburg as SKA played against Dinamo Minsk. In the...

It’s that time of year again, folks! Christmas is behind us but the most wonderful time of year still lies ahead — the 2026 World Junior Championship. There’s little better in this hockey season than this facing off of the world’s best under-20 aged talent, and this year’s installment is set to be no different. And on top of that, there will be a lot to be excited about for Flyers fans in particular, as the organization will be represented by a good handful of exciting prospects on some of the...

We here at Broad Street Hockey take poetry very seriously. It is an underappreciated art form. Hence, here is the iconic Christmas poem entitled A Visit from St. Nicholas (otherwise known as Twas the Night Before Christmas). Enjoy!
Twas the night before Christmas,
When all through the Flyers house
Not a creature was stirring,
Gritty bludgeoned the mouse;
The stockings were hung near the “Xbox” with care,
In hopes that St. Nick (Seeler) soon would be there;

The holiday break is upon us. Time to gather round the Christmas tree, sing yuletide carols, and indulge in some kind of belt-altering feast on Dec. 25. Or for others to endure the relatives and in-laws, look at the clock until it ends, and start taking down all Christmas-related items the following day. Wherever you are on the spectrum, the NHL takes a break. So with the Flyers still knocking on the door in terms of becoming a possible playoff team, let’s look at what each Flyers player deser...

The Minnesota Wild gave up a lot to get Quinn Hughes this season, including Marco Rossi, Zeev Buium, Liam Ohgren, and a 2026 first-round pick. The Wild, while staying competitive, need to replenish their roster with some younger talent as some of their veterans are the ones weighing their team down. The Wild appear to have one name in mind on the Philadelphia Flyers . According to Anthony DiMarco, "The Minnesota Wild have shown continued interest in trading for Bobby Brink."

The Chicago Blackhawks added another lump of coal to the stocking on Tuesday night, losing their sixth straight game in a 4–1 defeat to the Philadelphia Flyers on Christmas Eve Eve.
The Flyers opened the scoring midway through the first period. Travis Konecny was set up in the left faceoff circle by a slick feed from Trevor Zegras and snapped it home from in close to make it 1–0.

In the final game before the Christmas break and in a second half of a back-to-back, the Flyers went into Chicago and came away with a wire-to-wire 3-1 victory over the Blackhawks. At the tail end of a brutal condensed schedule where the Flyers played 10 games in 17 days, the Flyers now head into the holiday break with the second highest points percentage in the East.

The first period of this game was a dump and chase drill. The teams combined to put ten shots on net (6-4 in favor of the Flyers). Philly’s second shot didn’t happen until 10:17 had come off the clock. Unfortunately, it went in. The Blackhawks had a 7-3 advantage in scoring chances in the first period at 5-on-5 , but were chasing one after one.
The Blackhawks and Flyers really made it feel like both teams have three days off after this game in the second period… until the Flyers amazingly...

Despite a five-goal outbreak against the Philadelphia Flyers on the weekend, the New York Rangers have been struggling to score. They have four games of zero or one goal in their last seven, and currently sit dead last in the Eastern Conference with just 97 goals scored this season, in 38 games, going into Tuesday's action. But their leading scorer, Artemi Panarin, might not be long for the Big Apple. A pending unrestricted free agent, he has had no extension talks since turning down a d...

The Chicago Blackhawks limp into Tuesday’s final matchup before the holiday break with the Philadelphia Flyers carrying a growing losing streak and an injury list that’s starting to look uncomfortably bleak.
The Flyers arrive in Chicago as one of the league’s quietest success stories, having picked up at least a point in 18 of their last 23 games while going 12-5-6 over that stretch. That run has vaulted them all the way to second in the Metropolitan Division and in the Eastern Conference...

The Blackhawks are hurting right now — literally and figuratively. They’re 2-7-1 in their last 10 games and have lost their last five in a row. And they’ll start tonight’s game without Connor Bedard or Frank Nazar available; Nazar left the game in Ottawa and will miss the next four weeks. So much for a merry Christmas, eh?
Unfortunately, the Blackhawks will not get their captain, Nick Foligno , back in the lineup tonight against a Flyers team that hosted (and beat) the Canucks last night ...

When it was confirmed that Tyson Foerster’s recovery from arm surgery would rule him out for the rest of the season, it dealt a massive blow to the Flyers’ forward depth. Not only had Foerster continued to be one of the best and most consistent two-way forwards on the team, but he was seemingly in the process of taking the next step offensively. Foerster’s pre-injury total of 10 goals remains tied for second on the team with Travis Konecny, even in his absence.
