It’s no secret that the Flyers have taken their fair share of penalties. Heading into Wednesday’s game against host Utah, Philadelphia sits sixth in the league with 520 minutes in penalties. It’s a strain on the team’s penalty kill, and a strain that has caused more than a few leaks in that particular special teams sector. Sure some penalties are unavoidable, sometimes even good, but the Flyers are taking a bevy of just dumb, brain-cramping infractions. And during Wednesday’s post-practice pre...

The Philadelphia Flyers continue their road trip and so far, it’s been pretty successful.

On January 18th in 2023, a fart sound was heard on Sportsnet during the Tampa Bay Lightning and Vancouver Canucks broadcast.

The moment in question occurred when netminder Colin Delia slid to his left whilst corralling an Alex
On January 18th in 1958, Willie O'Ree dressed for the Boston Bruins against the Montreal Canadiens becoming the first black person to play in the NHL.

On January 18th in 2014, Calgary Flames coach Bob Hartley iced his fourth line brawlers to commence CBC's Hockey Day In Canada finale. Vancouver Canucks coach John Tortorella reluctantly responded in-kind igniting a line brawl yielding 152 penalty minutes and eight player ejections, two seconds into the match. Sensing the imminent ambush, veteran defenseman Kevin Bieksa swapped spots
