(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 […]

A look at the Flyers October schedule and the way the first three games have played out brings a frightening though to mind. Last season, the Flyers started the season 1-7-0 in eight games. For the second straight season, the Flyers have opened with three straight losses after a 4-3 shootout loss to the Montreal […]

But it was a broken play, and a broken stick, that did the Flyers in. Steve Mason attempted to adjust to Adam McQuaid's shot as it fluttered off the broken […]

The NHL season starts in just eight days and Tuesday night presented the final chance to see the Flyers on home ice before their home opener on Oct. 9.
