The Flyers were in Voorhees on Monday as they packed up following a disappointing 2014-15 season. Each player met individually with Craig Berube and Ron Hextall and also faced the media. The day was filled with quotable moments. Here's some of the highlights.
Brandon Manning is now officially a Flyer. For three seasons, the defenseman got a taste of the NHL level on various call-ups. Manning has played 10 games with the Flyers this season, including the last six, and has done enough to earn a spot in the future. The 24-year-old signed a one-year, NHL-only deal with […]

They will play the first of those final three tonight as they welcome John Tavares, Kyle Okposo and the rest of the New York Islanders (46-27-6) to the Wells […]
Every time the Penguins fired a shot, Steve Mason was there to answer the call. Through 22 first-period shots, Mason made 21 saves, easily keeping the Flyers in the game. One save stood out, a glove save on Craig Adams robbing him on a rebound chance. It was arguably Mason's best save of the season. […]

When the regular season ends, if the Flyers are somehow still playing and one of 16 teams in the playoffs, it is games like the one on Thursday that you can point to as the reason. The Flyers faced the daunting task of playing from behind on the St. Louis Blues. The Blues entered the […]
The numbers looked bleak as the third period began. The St. Louis Blues had lost just three times when leading after two periods. The Flyers had just two wins when trailing after 40 minutes. With their playoff hopes on life support, points are crucial in every game. The Flyers made the third period count, scoring […]
Through two periods, the Flyers didn't look like a team that believed in a playoff run. The third was a different story. The Flyers roared back and erased a two-goal deficit to force overtime and close the playoff gap to five. But they could do no better as Jiri Hudler scored in overtime to give […]
