Defenseman Luke Schenn has more goals, one, and more points, four, than Jake Voracek — no goals and three points — and Schenn has been a healthy scratch for four games.

Another week of Flyers hockey is in the books and it was a rough one. Get all caught up with links to everything posted to Flyerdelphia this week. Here is you Flyerdelphia week in review.
Flyers right winger Jakub Voracek has always been far more concerned with his team's record than his personal statistics. Last season, when he led the race for the Art Ross Trophy — the top scoring player in the NHL — for much of the season, he inevitably responded to questions about his own numbers by […]
The spectrum shifts for the Flyers as they head into their eighth game of the season. Coming off another telling win against the New York Rangers — in a shootout, no less — the Flyers get their first chance to correct another area that palgued them for much of last season. The Buffalo Sabres […]
A five-day break bred a 2-1 loss to Dallas on Tuesday night, dropping the Flyers to 2-2-1 on the season. Five points in five games is not miserable, but the Flyers could certainly have done better.

If the Flyers could take one lesson from a 7-1 loss in Florida on Saturday, it was that they could not rely on a goaltender to bail them out time and time again in games. Defensively, they would need to make plays at every part of the ice. In Monday night's season opener, the team […]
Brayden Schenn picked up a rebound after a great effort by a driving Sam Gagner. At 5:57, the Flyers had the lead. Wells Fargo Center was roaring following the goal, which came almost immediately after a huge momentum booster for the Flyers, who had successfully killed a four-minute, double-minor. That goal would be the only […]
An embarrassing 7-1 loss is the type of game that should spark a fire in a team. As if any more motivation is needed, the Flyers are coming off a 7-1 loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday and get to face them on Monday night. This is the home opener for the Flyers, the […]
Yesterday, the Flyerdelphia staff made their picks and predictions for the NHL — the standings, the playoff teams from both conferences and the awards. Today, as the Flyers prepare to begin the 2015-16 season against the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Flyerdelphia staff makes a few bold predictions on the Flyers season and tries their hand […]
Here is it: game No. 1 of 82. It is only the beginning for the Flyers, and for now, they start with the rest of the NHL’s 30 teams. They have a clean slate after a few forgettable seasons that saw them miss the playoffs twice and fall out in the first round in the […]
