Five days off on the schedule helped end a five-game home winning streak for the Flyers. But the break was hardly a reason for the Flyers sluggish effort against a reeling Blue Jackets team. Columbus entered Friday night's game on a nine-game losing streak – 0-8-1 in their last nine games – and stunned the […]
Six games into the season, the Flyers had one win – and a very poor one at that. They had four points in the standings, one from a blown game against Montreal at home on Oct. 11, where a 3-0 lead in the final period ended in a 4-3 shootout loss. They had another point […]
Jake Voracek extended his points streak to seven games on a great feed from Claude Giroux. Chris VandeVelde was quickly taken off the top line to get Wayne Simmonds better chances. Those were two storylines that will carry into the next game. But the one that would normally be overlooked is the scoring depth the […]
When the Flyers faced the Florida Panthers on Saturday, taking a 2-1 loss, they didn't beat Roberto Luongo until there were just seven seconds left in regulation. They made up for it on Thursday. The Flyers scored twice in the first and twice more in the second as they beat the Panthers, 4-1, from Wells […]
Jake Voracek added two goals on Tuesday to increase his points total to 18 through 12 games this season.

Jake Voracek and the Flyers go for their first home win of the season against the Red Wings on Saturday. (Photo by Amy Irvin/38Photography) The Flyers first win of the season in Dallas a week ago should have given them momentum heading into Chicago. It didn't. But the Flyers did rally the next […]
The box score this morning will show the Flyers scoring three goals in the third period to claim a 5-3 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins after being tied, 2-2, entering the final 20 minutes. But it wasn't a goal that really led to the Flyers third-period scoring. Ray Emery stopped Evgeni Malkin from point-blank range. […]
For the Flyers, it may be home away from home. The Consol Energy Center has been friendly to the Orange and Black, and after a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of the Blackhawks, perhaps this was just what the doctor ordered. The Penguins got the game's first goal, but the Flyers took control in the […]
Claude Giroux against Chicago last season. (Photo by Amy Irvin/38Photography) The Philadelphia Flyers (1-2-2) will look to make it two wins in a row tonight as they take on the Blackhawks (3-0-1) in Chicago. Last season the teams split their season series with each team winning at home. Both teams come into tonight with an extra day's […]
