Forward Joel Farabee has signed an entry-level deal with the Flyers, following his freshman season with Boston University.

The Flyers were defeated by the Capitals, 3-1, on Sunday afternoon.

Josh Bailey scored with 3:57 to play in the third to put the Islanders ahead and added another goal 1:23 later to seal a 4-2 win for the Islanders that all but ended the Flyers playoff hopes on Saturday afternoon at Wells Fargo Center.

The Flyers host the Islanders in a Saturday matinee and another game where their own result matters first before turning to watch the rest of the playoff hopefuls take the ice on Saturday night.

Carter Hart made 40 saves and made James van Riemsdyk’s goal with 10:10 left in the period stand up in a 3-1 Flyers win over the Blackhawks on Thursday night.

With time running out on the schedule, the Flyers travel to face the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night.

On Thursday, the NHL officially announced that the Flyers will face the Chicago Blackhawks to open the 2019-20 season in Prague, Czech Republic.

When it came down to it, the Flyers ran out of gas. Montreal was the hungrier team early, opened up the lead and let their goaltender do the rest. The regulation loss pushed the Flyers further back in the chase for the playoffs, and likely closed the book on an unlikely comeback.

There would be no magical comeback on this night. The Flyers were never able to solve the Canadiens at even strength and Montreal claimed a 3-1 win over the Flyers on Tuesday night at Wells Fargo Center.

The Flyers face the Montreal Canadiens on home ice to kick off the final 10 games on the schedule, having split the first two meetings of the season in Montreal.

With 10 games remaining on the schedule, it remains to be seen if the Flyers take this win and turn it into some magical last-gasp playoff run that gets them in, but it kept their playoff hopes alive for now.

Carter Hart was back in goal and continued to give the Flyers a chance, turning away seven Pittsburgh shots in overtime. On a last-second two-on-one, Sean Couturier finished off the incredible rally for a 2-1 win over the Penguins, keeping the Flyers dimming playoff hopes alive for another day.

It became a night to forget for the Flyers, as what remains of their playoff hopes took a massive hit with a 7-6 loss to the Maple Leafs on Friday night.

The Flyers continue a crucial three-game stretch on Friday against the Toronto Maple Leafs, a team that they have not faced since Nov. 24, two days before Ron Hextall was fired as GM.

The Capitals didn’t win Thursday’s game with their stars, but their depth, getting good goaltending when they needed it and players to step up. For the Flyers, it was a reminder that a young defense can still pay the price for costly mistakes and that the depth needs to improve.

Two goals in 65 seconds put the Capitals in control in a 5-2 win against the Flyers on Thursday night at Wells Fargo Center.

The Washington Capitals return to Wells Fargo Center as the Flyers look to keep the momentum going after back-to-back wins.

The Flyers did what they had to against the Ottawa Senators. After falling behind in the first period, they stayed the course, got their legs, took the lead in the second and handled business against the NHL’s worst team this season in a 3-2 win.

The Senators made things interested with a late goal, but the Flyers held on for a 3-2 win. Coupled with Columbus’ 2-0 loss to the Islanders, the Flyers moved to within three points of a playoff spot with the win.

Monday, the Flyers will face the Ottawa Senators, the team at the bottom of the NHL standings and a team that looks a lot different following the trade deadline two weeks ago. It is one of the rare games left on the Flyers schedule against a team outside the playoff picture.

Jake Voracek was given a two-game suspension as a result, the NHL’s Department of Player Safety announced on Sunday. This will force Voracek to miss Monday’s game against the Ottawa Senators and Thursday’s game against the Washington Capitals.

The Flyers didn’t get much help in the playoff race, but did close the margin to five points with another convincing win over the Islanders, and the margin will remain until the team takes the ice again on Monday night.

The Flyers closed out the first period with a pair of goals and scored three goals on five shots in the second to pull away in a 5-2 win over the New York Islanders on Saturday night.

The Flyers are back on Long Island on Saturday, just six days removed from a 4-1 win over the Islanders, looking to keep things going in their playoff push alive.

Erasing a five-point deficit and at least one seven-point deficit is not favorable or likely for the Flyers, especially with just 15 games to play in the regular season, but for now, there is a path to do it.

According to reports, the Flyers will open the 2018-19 season with a European trip. While speculation is that the team will play in Prague, Czech Republic, no further details have been confirmed. The location and opponent is to be announced. An official announcement is set for March 21.

The Capitals scored twice in the first period and added three quick goals in the second to put the game away early and held off the Flyers comeback in a 5-3 win on Wednesday night at Wells Fargo Center.

On Wednesday night, the division leaders come to town, as the Flyers face the Washington Capitals.

GM Chuck Fletcher updated the status of four injured Flyers on Tuesday after practice.
