No Philadelphia Flyers rookie has ever won the Calder Trophy. It is not that they have not had their share of viable candidates over the years. They've had a few top-end finishers in the balloting and their fair share who've earned NHL All-Rookie Team selection honors after the season but never an NHL rookie of […]
Embed from Getty Images There has been much talk of Radko Gudas these days and this time, it has shifted to the good he is doing on the ice. The Flyers defenseman has faced a season of ups and downs, overcoming the odds early — he was among the first to be on the […]
