Ron Hextall
Ron Hextall addressed the media following the trade deadline that saw the Flyers move two players, acquired a defenseman in a depth move and add three picks to their total for this year's draft. He closed his press conference by announcing that the Flyers had signed Pierre-Edouard Bellemare to a two-year extension. Bellemare will make […]
There were plenty of deals to go around on deadline day, and the Flyers certainly kicked off the festivities with an overnight deal sending Braydon Coburn to Tampa Bay for Radko Gudas and two draft picks. But following that deal, and their Friday night deal involving Kimmo Timonen, Ron Hextall and the Flyers remained quiet […]
There was a six-hour window on Sunday where every player was safe. As the Flyers Wives Carnival took place in Wells Fargo Center, no trades would be announced as the players met with fans. But during this time, Ron Hextall was busy working the phones. The Flyers GM was not in attendance at the Carnival. […]

Again, the Flyers turned in a familiar result. A […]
The Flyers goalie situation continues to be the walking wounded. Add Ray Emery to the list. Emery is day-to-day with a lower-body injury and did not make the trip with the Flyers for two road games this week in Carolina and Toronto. Rookie Anthony Stolarz will back-up Rob Zepp in Tuesday's game in Carolina.

Now he is among the greats whose names hang from the rafters of Wells Fargo Center. Desjardins became the 23rd member of the Flyers Hall of Fame on Thursday night prior to the Flyers game against […]
Photo courtesy of Amy Irvin/38Photography It was mid-way through the second period that the injury bug bit Steve Mason again. A lower-body injury forced Mason out of Sunday's 3-1 win over the Capitals. The injury puts the Flyers in a huge pickle. In Mason's previous injuries, Rob Zepp was the first to get the call. […]
